....... Sergio's got a boner right now.
If mayweather sticks true to his word... much respect to him.
I know Lou and Sergio will go full steam ahead for this.... if they can.

[Jim Jeffries]

Naw, if he fought De La Hoya at 154 I can think he should be able to fight Sergio there too.

This. Martinez would be lucky to make 154 these days, never mind 150.

Thats right Floyd drain'em down to your preference. Dont fight him in his stronger weight. SM is looking for a pay day cant blame him their. Beat is as$ SM

[Hougigo]

Also, if they fight at a catchweight..... I expect Floyd to get flack, just like Manny.

Sergio should have stuck to his guns about not moving lower than 154. 150 would be too low imo, especially as he has been campaigning at 60 in his last few fights.

We really don't need to see a drained Martinez

while i dont think there's an iceberg's chance in hell of martinez accepting a fight anywhere close to 150 i'm still pleased to hear this sort of rhetoric from floyd

he sounds like he's interested in kicking the maximum amount of ass again


the MW champion of the world is lightyears away from cherrypicking a blown up jr LW in marquez and still missing weight and showing up 160 on fight night


i think floyd would walk martinez down and land the right hand
i'd actaully pick him to win on points, and i've been saying this since he fought ortiz and the fight became concievable



floyd can get plenty of credit here. his stock already seems to be at least as high as it's ever been
and he's fighting a guy who wont command serious cash for his own purse, who can generate some serious buzz, especially among boxing people


sergio is also an easy sell. in my opinion (other than his promotor,) it's the fact that he doesnt speak english that is holding him back
he'd play the perfect handsome good guy to floyd's handsome devil

See you flip flopping again kiddo you little chocolate coated cookie .

[Shadow boxer 3]

should be at 154

Mayweather vs. Martinez at 154: A
Mayweather vs. Martinez at 150: D+
Mayweather vs. Martinez at 147: F

Same goes for Manny. This won't happen. I have a hard time believing Floyd would actually fight Sergio at 150, after he's talked crap about Manny's CW fights. I am now convinced, Mayweather-Martinez won't happen. And like I said from day one, Floyd and Manny shouldn't feel an obligation to fight him. Yes, it would enhance their legacies greatly, but he's still a Middleweight and they are still small Welterweights.

Fixed for you
