      I think he's a great fighter but just doesn't have a great resume. Even all of you said it, Williams is his signature win and what does that count for in the all time rankings - nothing. The biggest fight he's been in was against Chavez, he needs more big fights if he wants greatness. Fighting Barkers and Macklins ain't gonna boost his rankings either

        I don't think anyone, including the biggest idiots of his fans, are claiming he's an ATG caliber fighter.

          Williams KO - signature win
          Chavez decision - signature performance

          Does he have that opponent that would help him cement his legacy? Not yet, but he has a bit more time left to make it happen. He just has to capitalize on the opportunity if it presents itself. MW is a hot-bed of talent right now, and if the right fights are made, Martinez could find himself in the position to fight the indisputable #2 in the division, therefore cementing his legacy imho.

          The winner of Golovkin/Geale vs. the winner of Quillin/Pirog, and whoever wins that would be a legacy fight for Martinez.

              I wish Martinez was about 3-4 years younger. I don't know why he was looked over so much for fights he should have had.
