Explain why Sergio Martinez vs floyd mayweather at 160 doesnt make sense?

[PAC-BOY]

Floyd will never in a million light years fight Sergio! Stop it already!
"And of course, I'm probably not looking to fight six strong champions. I'm a lot older now, you know what I'm saying?" -Floyd Mayweather

End thread/ These are Floyds words!

It should be at 154. He comes in 150/151 for his JMW fights, why would he need to jump to 160 when Martinez himself often comes below the MW limit. Making 154 doesn't seem to be a problem for Sergio, and he didn't leave 154 because he was struggling to make the weight. Best fight out there but likely won't happen. Martinez is on course for a rematch with Jr. and GBP is gunning for a Floyd-Canelo fight.

Martinez would have a significant size advantage but I think Floyd would still beat him. That would be a very dangerous fight though. Floyd dominates but is one left hand away from being stretched out.

I dont know..if there was a fight out there that I would honestly say that PBF can loose its this one..Sergio is awkward.

f*** it as a floyd fan its the fight i want floyd to take.

the ghost at 47 canelo at 54 and martinez at 160\

ghost in may canelo in september and martinez in may

it will mean floyd will be the lineal champ in two weight divisions. will be the numb 1 fighter in 3 weight divisions. would have beat 2 pfp fighters possibly 3 for canelo in the future in a row.

serg is not invincible chavez did some work on him in there fight. now he has two hard fights in a row a big brit in murray and chavez again. it lines up perfect for floyd its a risk he should take imo because this will sew up his career so tight no hater could ever tear it apart.

He CAN lose it no doubt but I don't think he would. Martinez doesn't look good against guys who box from the outside, look how much success Barker had against him. I see Floyd frustrating him and popping him with lead right hands all night long. Of course Martinez has the power to take Floyd out with a big left at any time in the fight, that's what makes it an exciting matchup.

why did Marquez have to jump from 135 to 147? what's good for the goose isn't good for the duck?

I agree. The most skilled fighter for fighting the softest oppostion he can. More so skilled in fighting old shot fighters. The best fighter at fighting fighters that have to slam on lbs. And smaller fighter. Yeah id say he is pretty skilled. By where is skills really lie....what hes really most skilled in is ducking fights! P4P champ! Skilled....
