      I voted that Martinez could, but in reality, I think Floyd beats him. Martinez is not a fighter that exerts much physical strength on his opponents, and I really think he would end up fighting Floyd's fight, which would be disastrous for him.

        Martinez is a very good fighter but he has moments where he seems to go blank and seem to fall apart, the thing that saves him is his one punch KO power and his speed. That won't fly when facing Floyd. I stand firm on my pick. (Andre Ward the only one capable beating Floyd)

          I never thought about the matchup until now, but Lara would have a more than good chance against mayweather at 154

            This poll clearly shows that the fight everyone wants to see (obviously except the may-pac fight) is May-Martinez, hell some people might even wanna see that fight more than the may pac fight, and I have to admit it would be an intriguing fight, Hope they can make it happen within the next couple of years before floyd retires.

              Sergio Martinez.

              No one else will beat him AT THIS CURRENT STAGE.

              Wait a year? Perhaps he slows down even more.

                Only two men that have a chance to beat Mayweather is Martinez at 154 and Pac at some catch weight.

                    Martinez doesn't have one punch K.O power! the only time I have ever seen him K.O a guy with a single punch was PW and it hardly saved him then as it was pretty damn early in the fight.

                    If Martinez can make 154 without being effected (which I doubt he can) he has a great chance of beating Mayweather imo at 160 I would strongly favour Martinez.

                    Whats with bringing up Andre Ward a 168lb fighter that's over 20lbs heavier than Mayweathers natural weight class most top 168lb fighters would beat Floyd not just Ward.
