Maravillamania in Argentina

[kiaba360]

Martinez is slowing down already, he'll be out of the sport before he's 40.

Just because he started late doesn't mean he's a freak like Hopkins.

B-Hop's style has also helped in his longevity. He can lose and still make anyone look bad.

Since Martinez doesn't have much time left, I don't see the point fighting Chavez again. Fighting a guy that big will tax your career, even in victory.

Yea, a Chavez Jr rematch is pointless.

He needs these last few fights to be his big make or break fights that decide his legacy. He says he's too small for 168 but I reckon he should take on Abraham for the WBO belt.

Then target a fight with Mayweather or Pac, if neither - Cotto.

I think the reason that alot of people thought/wished he was gay is because he is a man who takes pride in his appearance. Not all that common in boxing. People thought the same about Floyd until Ms Jackson came onto the scene.

Unlike Floyd though Martinez is good looking so its understandable about su****ions but I never doubted him. Now is he getting all this attention and I hope its lasts. Women will be throwing themselves at him and he could be the face of boxing. Just ashame he cant really speak English otherwise he would transcend the sport.

So now we can finally put the "Martinez is gay" rumor and su****ion to rest?

floyd also has a house full of kids and has been seen publicly with women, but I get ur point though.

Martinez is a blessing for today's boxing
we need real champions , who don't fear loss , and bring justice to sport
he is good looking , not in sexy way , but like University professor who won a noble prize
his life story is amazing to read , inspiring for young children , his attitude towards women is a role model for every athlete during his career

for me he is perfect , with win or loss , he is good man and good boxer

you never know , she could be sergio's "miss jackson".....paid to eliminate suspiscion ..

An Argentine member posted an interview with Martinez a few days ago. I commented, "Sergio must be a rock star in Argentina right now." He didn't respond. Judging from these magazine covers and your comments, I see I was right! Martinez is firing on all cylinders. Argentina is full of beautiful women; it must be great to be "Maravilla" nowadays!

Isn't Maravilla gay?

[Light_Speed]

This should kill the gay rumors for a while.

Sergio reminds me of Marvin Hagler in thathewas't pushed or groomed to be a big name. He did it the hard way, by beating everyone up and the fame they both got are well well deserved.

Yeah nice to see a legit great fighter getting the exposure for a change.

Good for him he deserves it! Hes on magazines and being cheered while Chavez has become a punchline and disgrace to Chavez name. All is right in boxing for the moment.

Exactly what I wanted this fight to accomplish.
