Just because martinez got a lucky punch with williams he beleive is a great fighter

I use to be a Sergio hater but the way he blasted through Williams, beat the MW King Kelly Pavlik, and destroyed Dzinzuruk he earned this haters respect. I use to speak of Martinez like I do about Cotto, but Martinez just left me no choice but to respect him. He's the real deal. I use to hate Sergio and thought he was overrated, and I thought Williams closely but clearly beat him the first time and he beat Cintron but was outright robbed, straight up.

Martinez and even Erislandy Lara were landingi that punch at will. Williams is wide open for it. Lara doesn't quite have Martinez's power, and Martinez previously wasn't able to land it flush with Williams coming forward. However he nearly landed that blast a few times. Nothing lucky about that.

If anything, maybe you should discredit him by saying the code on Williams is cracked and without him adjusting to that punch, he's not much of a win. However, I'd disagree and say it was still an excellent win. Since then however, Martinez has been the "Euro-Cutioner." Which is not the most prestigious title imo. Tough for him though since he doesn't want to move up anymore, not many options.

he paid the price to figure that out though.

If you think that punch that koed williams was lucky then you probably think Donaires counter of Darchinyan was a lucky punch

Or Donaires KO of Montiel.

Or Donaires KO of Montiel.

or Pac KO of Hatton

Yup, that's one reason I think Martinez deserves credit for it. Without hurting Williams like that, Williams would be in there making a lot of rounds difficult to score. Thus, I give Martinez credit for his win. Not a huge Martinez fan, but he does some excellent stuff.
