Comments Thread For: Andy Lee: Chavez Jr. Turned Me Down, I Want Martinez

[UglyPug]

Lee can't fight Jr for 2 reasons: he's got a pulse and he's not a taxi driver, but Sergio would pick him apart...let's see how Sulaiman gets out of his words a few days ago saying Jr would be stripped if he doesn't fight Sergio...

lol my guess would be that sulaiman says: "sergio is the DIAMOND champion! so he is already a "higher" recognized champion of our organization; so, thereby allowing chavez to continue his reign as our "regular" WBC champion."

also, you are wrong about sergio picking apart lee! ill have a HUGE bet on Lee if the fight happens.

sergio destroys lee

Lee should fight Quillin.

That's an interesting fight.

I like Martinez, but I'm getting tired of him too. It's clear that Floyd doesn't really wanna fight him. It's also clear than him & Pacman is a complete mismatch. I don't think Pacman wins a second of that fight. Martinez needs to concentrate on 160. Go take Sturms belt or Pirogs, he can do it.

Sturm doesn't want Martinez and after last night against Murray I doubt Sturm will ever face anybody half way decent again.

Pirog only wants to fight in Russia.

Geale is saying he needs a few more fights before Martinez.

the guy is 37 and he wants the big money fights. it's no different then middleweight king Bernard Hopkins calling out welterweights Tito Trinidad and Oscar de la Hoya. it's all about the money. Money May brings the money, Pacquiao brings the money.

i can live with this, but it's just so annoying how people act like he is DIFFERENT than manny and floyd. . they think he's some kind of "people's champ" LOL. . .

"No way a guy who is 5-11 will out box me"..................go holler at Pavlik and Williams, they both thought the same thing mate.

I think people like him because he defied the status quo. He was meant to be a stepping stone for a few fighters but it didnt work out that way. Hes basically the underdog story.

Lee has earned his title shot.

You keep repeating this, it's simply not true and I think you know it. Here's my reply to your previous post on another thread, hope you can provide that link:

Please post a link that HBO was willing to televise Pirog-Manfredo. The only way Manfredo gets on HBO is as fodder for a MARKETABLE figher. I've heard rumors of Pirog-Manfredo, but afaik it was FNF. I assure you Pirog is willing and eager to fight Sergio in America for challenger money, but the only way he can offer Sergio twice his best career purse is in Russia. You think the Russians putting up the money would be smart to stage that fight in Atlantic City? And let me remind you that he has pitched the Geale fight to both networks.
