Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Not Surprised By Cotto-Chavez Jr. News

Martinez is a chump.

Why's he targetting the weakest link?

Sooner Martinez gets put in his place the better, but i'm afraid that he too will be running from credible opponents while continually taking potshots at Chavez jnr

Lol, weakest link? He wants to fight Floyd Mayweather. Has even mentioned a fight with Ward if they could agree on terms. He's open to fighting the best from 147 to 168...that's a huge range... He said he'd like winner of Cotto-Marg. would fight Floyd-Pac at 150ish, Ward at catch weight..what more do you want? He gives Chavez **** for openly ducking him and having his title.. Not because he thinks he's all that great a challenge. It wouldn't surprise me to see him challenge Vitali at this point lol.

come man you gotta be joking.

Williams was one of the most ducked guys in the game. Dzinziruk was in the same boat, even Alfredo Angulo vacted his interim title instead of facing him.
Macklin is coming off a robbery against a top middleweight in Sturm.

I know what your saying about the money and all but really do you think Carlos Baldomir was a better PPV sell then Paul Williams for Mayweather.

money plays a part but it's just an excuse to avoid dangerous opponents. that's almost the only time money is ever brought up.

he was ducked at WW. . not at MW. . . jacobs would destroy paul williams. . . i know he hasn't fought the competition williams has, but he is so much faster, accurate, and stronger. . .

that's just my opinion. . . pirog would MOST DEFINITELY spark williams out . . .

exactly. . . he talks shyt about floyd and manny and cotto, but yet won't fight guys naturally bigger than him? he is doing THE EXACT SAME THING as they are! but he acts like he is the people's champ, and they are just ducking. . .

sergio, step the *** up, or SHUT the *** up. . .

What? Jacobs would pummel Williams? I don't think Williams is a good boxer, he has terrible flaws and he's completely unwilling to correct them, but Williams has done a lot more than Jacobs and if Jacobs fights like he did against Pirog he would be KOd by Williams.

Jacobs is just a prospect, nothing more nothing less, while Williams is a boxer with a long career fighting top boxers. Barker was still green but he did a good job against Martinez by using his weight advantage. Macklin IMO defeated Sturm in Germany and Dzinziruk was also undefeated and was a LMW champion. All of those guys have far better resumes than Jacobs.

No way. . . Jacobs is so much fleeter of hand and foot. . not to mention he's a pretty good sized MW, whereas Williams is a natural 152-154 pounder. . Jacobs would pick his shots, and destroy Williams. . .

Williams best fight was the win he got against martinez. . . which martinez quickly rectified. . i love williams cause he has huge heart and is pretty much willing to fight anybody. . . but he proved that he doesn't belong at 160, and he would be sparked out by jacobs. . .

i know jacobs got KO'd by pirog, but he was fighting an even fight up until that point. . . i just think his skillset and natural speed and power are far superior to williams arm punching. .

dzindz was a 154 pounder. . . that fight proved what a natural 160 pounder (sergio) looks like against a natural 154 pounder (dzinz). . .

Martinez > everyone pug mentioned

[right hand jab]

Martinez reminds me of Lara, no1 wants to see them in the ring...Jr doesn't want a piece of Maravilla, no doubt about that.... Cotto, he will destroy Chavez... the level of competition Cotto has fought Jr hasnt even scratched the surface... Such a joke.. If anyone deserves to fight Cotto is Maravilla.. Great fight... I still have Martinez beating Cotto but in UD...not a KO.. Cotto is a warrior...A true champion.. Martinez loses only to Money May.. But than again, so does everyone else...

Some good points there, but no way does Mayweather defeat Martinez, let alone step into the ring with him.

who has pirog beat that makes him godlike in these forums to you clowns? seriously.

No one but it sure distract everyone from talking about why Cotto or Chavez jr wouldnt fight Martinez..

If "Marinez is a chump", then you're not a moron. There are no credible fights at middleweight!

What has Jacobs done in his career, other than show a poor defence and low punch resistance?...Even this version of Paul Williams would maul Jacobs!
