Manny well ok you can ask for that but is that likely to happen and Floyd isn't the only reason that fight has not taken place. I don't see that fight as all that much more challenging to Floyd than Guerrero though~
The fight will be fine, it is just one fight it ain't nothing to get twisted over. It is your right not to like it or watch, but you should really think about it a bit more because all I hear is a sheep bleating.
Also you are spinning just in a negative way~

I think after that one's out the way, Mayweather-Martinez is possible.
Doesn't seem like it is, at this exact moment in time.

At 154 it is not a real quality fight IMO, two names not fighting at their best. It would be alright but I would rather see Floyd fight a guy at his best or Floyd fighting in his best class. If he wants to mess with Sergio at 160 that would be cool I would want to see that, but I certainly don't expect that of any fighter.
As for Manny like I said it is not the much different than a Guerrero fight, a bit more challenging unless Manny is really on his game but every boxer he fought took him off his game to some degree and he is more faded than the Ghost.Last edited by The Gambler1981; 11-27-2012, 06:58 PM.

To think he can just drop a class and be cool at his age and wear level is kind of crazy, and guys who fight like Sergio are real sensitive to decline. I like Sergio I don't want to see him do something to shorten his career which is already running on fumes.

As for a WW fight,I would much rather see Bradley fight May then Pac at this point...Bradley younger fresher and presents a much different challenge imo..I think Pac is pretty much done..But Floyd Martinez is the match..

Martinez has talked a lot about being able to make 154, and wanting to move down to 154, but with every fight that passes where he is at middleweight still, the less I believe him and the more I believe he wants Mayweather for the paycheck and nothing else.

Martinez is not a small guy, if Martinez is small Floyd is tiny they are not the same size. He is a full fledged middleweight, he can't easily at this point in time make 154 he might kill himself to make it but do you really want to see Floyd beat a 50% version of Martinez. Floyd fought a couple guys at 154 and because he had the abilities to win those fight doesn't make him a 154 pound fighter, sure he can fight there but it certainly is not his best class. The fight would need to be at 160 for me to really like it and like I said I don't expect any fighter to do that sort of thing, but it would be cool.
Bradley and Guerrero are essentially equals, that is a 50/50 fight to me. Guerrero is the much easier fight to make and doesn't come with some stupid stuff that would come with fighting Bradley (why could he deal with TR for Bradley and couldn't make the Manny fight even though the situations would be very different).
