Neither lee nor Chavez stand a chance!! Martinez will own both of them! I hope the fight happens so Chavez can finally lose the belt he doesn't deserve

Interesting point. But it deflects from the original point and really is a red herring.

Question: Since Chavez comes into fights weighing in at super middleweight, why isn't he fighting super middleweights?

thats the problem i have,
none of this would be an issue if boxers fight nite weight is the official weigh in weight...no more fighting above or below ur weight division like back in the 15 rounds days...those were true welterweights/middleweights, etc...fighting in their weight divisions

[indystress]

You keep talking about Chavez...Chavez is making 160, is Ward? Martinez isn't fighting Chavez at 164. He is fighting Chavez at 160. So your point is moot.

He is not asking for either Floyd or Pac to fight at 157, or even in the middle of 154. He is willing to go down to 150 to fighter either guy where both have had fights at. So your point there is moot.

Maybe you should try again.

maybe u should try again and defend martinez,
because martinez knows himself that he has no chance vs supermiddles, hence the eagerness to fight welterweights, two divisions below him, as well as jccjr, who fights as a supermiddleweight on fight nite...but then again, jccjr should be fighting at super middleweights...then i would still see martinez wanting to fight jccjr but not the top super mids (ward/froch/bute, etc...)

Well Chavez fights at 160 not 168. Whether or not Martinez would fight Chavez at 168 is irrelevant and you're speculating. Lets stay in the real World. Chavez fights at 160 that's where Martinez wants to fight him at. So you have absolutely no point here.

You would have a point with Martinez wanting to fight those welterweights. If he was asking them to fight at 160. But, get this, he is NOT doing that. Not even asking them to fight at 154...Again not even asking to fight at 154. Martinez is willing -read carefully- to go down to 150 to fight them. They have fought at that weight-class before. So again YOU HAVE NO POINT here either.

You would have a point if Ward was willing to go down to 160 like Martinez is willing to go down to 150. You would have a point if Martinez had already fought at 168 or even at 164. But, he hasn't so your point is moot. Now try again.

Agree with this Martinez will beat Chavez or Lee, but will be a good fight either way.

[Best in Boxing]

Martinez will get the beat down if he ever decides to step in the ring with Chavez Jr.

look at the people you follow! haha. damn, that's a bandwagon fan if i ever saw one.

[Ringlife]

I hope Sergio does get to fight Chavez Jr and make some money the guy has paid his dues. He beat P will he beat Pavlik and has beat some tough contenders in the process. He's fought everybody that HBO wanted him to fight and won. I also would like him to challenge Mayweather at 154 that would be one hell of a fight if it happens. They guy wants to get paid whats wrong with that he's earned it.
