    I would have a little more respect if Sergio was targeting above his weight class, but not below ....
    You're comparing apples and oranges though. Martinez is willing to go down to a weight that might be extremely hard and uncomfortable for him to make. He's taking away his one true advantage which is size to face these guys. If Floyd would have fought JMM at 140 or even at 138 he wouldn't have caught as much flak -if any- in his fight against JMM.

    If Martinez would be asking Floyd or Pac to meet him at 157 or higher then yes your point would be valid.

    And, Pac did get some flak for JMM, maybe not as much as Floyd but he got some.

      What? The bold is such a lie. Not only was it viewed as an obvious cherrypick, 90% of smart people thought Marquez beat his a$$!

        Shake your head all you want but you better proceed with caution.

        Even censored links have to be posted with news.

          Martinez is willing to go down to 150!

          it's not the same thing at all

          your comparison and points are invalid
          This kid is on a roll.

          The Floyd/Marquez fight was basically at a catchweight of 146 lol, as it wouldve been even worst if MArquez came in at 146.

          If Floyd even went down to 140 to fight Marquez he wouldve gotten full credit from me.

            Comparison point was {at that time} that Floyd was picking on smaller guys in JMM. But how can that hold true if Pac did the same thing and received no criticism ..

            Sergio is targeting smaller guys because he will have a size advantage and to make some cash... Anyone trying to dispute that reality, is in a twilight zone.

              People want Floyd and Sergio at 160 so 150 is ridiculous. And Floyd knows it.

                Boxing....

                Boxing is a money business so I dont blame Sergio for going after the money pit on Pac and FMJ. Money talks BS walks and that is the bottom line. Yes, better fights and challenges are out for Maravilla at his weight class and higher but the money is under him not on the top of his division so who is the dumb?? Maravilla isnt!

                  If Floyd can manage to get Pac in the ring for May. Then win. Followed by beating Martinez at 154 in November then that's certified Fighter Of The Year material.

                    Floyd can pick on smaller guys all he wants if he's willing to go down to fight them...

                    Like Martinez is

                      Nah 154 is fair although it would be great if it went to 160 but not complaining be unfair on Floyd then.Im sure if Sergio asks they can get this done for 154
