Comments Thread For: Team Martinez: Chavez More Viable Than Mayweather

[deanrw]

How the hell is Pacquiao and Canelo is more lucrative then Floyd when Floyd is the biggest name in boxing?

He is saying more lucrative fights for Floyd to choose from, like Canelo or Manny

[Redd Foxx]

When did Floyd say he would never fight Martinez?.

His silence speaks volumes. Common sense, man. I don't blame him for avoiding Martinez, but don't play the fool and act like you don't understand what's going on here.

[Starz20]

When did Floyd say he would never fight Martinez?Floyd said he`s considering fighting at middleweight one day.

And i know if Floyd and Martinez fight and Floyd win`s ya`ll gonna say Martinez was old.

And Martinez does`nt want Floyd yet cause he know how dangerous Floyd is.

Thank you bruh, they say fight Martinez @154 two built in excuse when Martinez loses. "Oh he was weight drained when he fought Floyd." Or "Martinez was almost 40 and still gave Floyd a tough fight." My question is why is nobody asking Martinez to fight Pac?? So it is cool for Floyd and Pac to fight at 147 comfortably?? But Pac can't go up?? And Floyd should all the time?? The funny thing is even when Floyd, fought De La Hoya, and Cotto at 154 he weighed in @150, and 151.

And Chavez on fight night weighs more than Andre Ward true or false?? Well if the answer is true, why is Martinez NEVER mentioning Ward's name when on fight night he is smaller than what Chavez is?? Oh I know why, because HE knows for a fact and I put good money down, that he can't: Out box, out slick, out power, or out think Andre Ward so that's why Martinez is relatively quiet saying Wards name.

But he had absolutely 0 problem calling out Chavez who has a history for weighing 180 plus on fight night. So once again, Pac fans don't want to see him for Martinez?? but they want Floyd to?? And Pac and Floyd weigh basically the same on fight night. Wow how interesting they don't say Pac is ducking yet Floyd is?? Bunch of hypocrites

i know im with the minoryt but i also want to see a rematch...i kept asking myself " what if their first fight was 15 rounds"?

Problem is ... it's not. Sergio will abolish Chavez in the rematch because he won't be a showboating idiot like last fight. He messed up and he knows it. IMO I feel sergio has more to gain from a rematch than Chavez and will work hard at that. Chavez doesn't care and Sergio is probably fairly upset he let emotions get the better of him. A rematch imo is warrantless and you'll see a similar outcome without the last round being added in.

You mean Billi Godoy? Forget about it, he is undefeated but he will get killed. It could be Murray, Lee or Macklin. Why not bring Pirog to Argentina?

yeah, i've never really heard of him, but apparently he's ranked highly by the wbc. as for pirog travelling to argentina, that's very unlikely imo. just like dibella didn't like the idea of his fighter fighting in russia, i think pirog's people would feel the same way if they were offered a fight in argentina. imo it's the US for that fight, or nothing. one thing pirog had as well when that fight was offered was he was the wbo champ. he's not anymore, he's merely another contender with an undefeated record who has yet to prove how good he really is. martinez already fought barker so there's no need for another fight of that kind (even though pirog looks a lot more skilled than barker). imo it should be murray. murray gave sturm a good fight, some thought he won (i never watched the fight from start to finish and didn't score it as well), and he's ranked highly by the wbc too. i really wish the wbc rule of no unifying wasn't made, that would have made way for martinez/geale in argentina. that would have been perfect to set up a potential cotto or mayweather fight in late 2013.

This sux because we all know Sergio wants and deserves another big fight and now he might be forced to take a tougher fight than he wants at 160 - like against another champion for peanuts, which I doubt Dibella wants to do - he made that pretty clear already in his tirade about GGG.

Maybe he can avoid that by staging a defense in Argentina and wait for Chavez or another big name hopefully like nicolino said above. IDK if Chavez will bother honoring the suspension from NV or just go ahead and fight in TX but a rematch makes no sense right now (makes no sense regardless to some of you, I know lol).

He shouldn't give up so soon with calling these fighters out though, just keep trying to create pressure within the media the way he did with JR and he might get a fight.

yeah, martinez deserves to be in more high profile/money making fights, but unfortunately for him, no one can really make that happen besides chavez. he needs to try and lure guys like cotto and mayweather to fight him at MW or meet him at LMW. with cotto, it sounds like a fight can actually happen. cotto has expressed he wants to move up to MW to capture a title. after trout, it'll be 5 months in may when martinez plans to return. it can happen. if arum can set up fights like mayorga and foreman for cotto, i'm sure he can work with dibella to sell a martinez fight. i heard somewhere that martinez's next fight will have to be co-promoted by top rank. not sure if true, but i heard someone comment on it here before. either way, martinez should either fight cotto next or fight in argentina and try to get cotto or mayweather in late 2013.

He didn't showboat when he got caught, he just pulled straight back with his chin up in the air and his hands low. Sergio didn't mess up, he was just being Sergio.

[Motofan]

Chavez doesn't deserve a rematch.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^ right here.

[Grimgash]

Maybe I worded showboating wrong. He was far too aggressive when unnecessary and showing an air of overconfidence is the kind of showboating I meant. He had no business doing what he was doing, only to show off.

The best thing for Mayweather is stay on vacation, don't speak to the media and hide from the public, hide in a corner , suck his thumb and hope it goes away.

Sergio will knock out da chicken no if and's or but's.

so run floyd run !! Just like you always do when a threat appears.

IMO Chavez jr needs to start training and learning more from Roach not wasting time while off on this suspension.

Get his mind right on who is the trainer and train at a proper time

stop any use of any drug including alcohol

and come up with the game plan and work it hard and Knock out Sergio the great

Chavez can't out box Sergio he must Knock him out.

He can do it


RESPECT :

[ronnie_N.]

if a pot-headed bum who barely shows-up on training sessions can almost knock you out, there is definitely something needed to be checked at you... and that what is exactly sergio is thinking...
