      Even more so to make the fight happen. Floyd isnt really at much of a disadvantage sizewise.

        Because i disagree
        No...the point is that jumping up two divisions out of nowhere into new territory may have you end up getting your ass whooped

          Most people seem to think Martinez falls under the "high risk/low reward" category for both Manny and Floyd, but I don't really buy into that argument, at all. If you're talking about monetary gain, then yes, he's low reward for both of them. But if you're talking about legacy enhancement, there's nobody out there apart from each other, that would offer that kind of resume glow.

          I'd honestly pick Martinez to beat either of them, on any given night, at this point. Mayweather would be the more difficult of the two, for obvious reasons. Pacquiao might get murked.
          It would all depend on the weight son, seeing as how Martinez is naturally bigger than both Mayweather and Pacquiao.

            We all know talk doesnt mean ****. theres so much talking.

            Larry... are you telling me you dont want to see Floyd fight Sergio at 158+?

            Is that what your telling me?

            And how am i deflecting that Manny lost. Ive been making post all day in various threads speaking out about that fight, and i had JMM winning, so how am i deflecting?

            Should we go in circles about that fight all day?

              Exactly. Now floyd needs Sergio for a legacy fight or whatever. TS is a just a ho looking for a new pimp. He needs to believe in someone to beat the evil floyd.

                Sergio is ONLY 2 inches taller than Floyd, and Floyd still got a reach advantage. So how is he really bigger?

                  Why are you against a competitive fight? A fight that Floyd doesnt have a clear advantage over?

                    This further proves JMM's greatness, and lack of fear.

                    Since Floyd made it a catchweight for JMM at 144, i guess i wont hate it if Sergio made it 158 for the MW title.

                    What yall think?
                    Marquez is a true warrior and like to test himself, even when the deck is stacked against him.

                    Floyd lack balls

                      Agreed.

                      That said, I think Mayweather would be more willing to fight Martinez at a weight comfortable for him, than Pacquiao would.

                      Manny's camp already said they wouldn't go above 150 for Sergio. I think Floyd would do 154-156, easily, if he wanted to. Maybe even 160 for the legit lineal belt, if he wanted to add another title, in another weight division, to his record.
