so your criticizing him for actually boxing smart? would you trade punches with a guy who outweighs you by twenty pounds? Boxing is not always about slugging it out. Its also about movement and hit without being hit. yeah thats not crowd pleasing to most but thats what boxing is. if the fight was boring it was because of chavez. its not sergios fault that his opponent failed to close off the ring and get to him besides the final round
From round 1 to 11, Martinez made it a very boring fight.

All I'm saying is give Martinez credit. AT 37 years old he beat an undefeated, younger, bigger, and stronger champion. All this while sustaining multiple injuries. How many fighters in history have done that at that age? Not too many.Comment

but I believe if junior stops his games and takes training serious, he'd be a good B- perhaps someday. lol

Maybe he should just stand in front of Chavez Jr. and let him hit him. That way it's all fair and Chavez Jr. has a prayer.
He was landing lots of power shots and combinations on Chavez Jr. Just because he's moving doesn't mean he's not fighting.Comment

Made it boring are you serious? That was a VERY entertaining fight... Martinez didn't even clinch when he was on the ropes he was firing off so many combos where at times Chavez took a step back. He was effectively fighting a cruiserweight was refused to be bullied into the ropes.Comment

If Chavez Jr. wants fighters to make it easier for him, standing in front of him that is, then he should move up. It's really that simple. One can't expect a small MW, a natural Jr MW in my opinion, to trade with Chavez.Comment
