Floyd-Sergio > Floyd-Canelo

[bojangles1987]

But what does give him the fight with Mayweather?

After Canelo he is the most marketable opponent.

Looking vulnerable at 154 would get him the fight. But Martinez isn't going to move down unless its for Mayweather, that much is evident.

Honestly, its a fight that won't happen, I don't think, for many reasons on both sides.

I think he would seriously consider moving down for Canelo or go down to like 156 for him.

I could also see him going down for Trout if he continues to build a name for himself, but that is less likely given time constraints.

Mayweather said in the build-up to the Cotto fight that Martinez was "possible at a catchweight" and then said Martinez should fight Andre Dirrell before him though. Similar to how he used Jesse Vargas with Khan.

He said it was possible in reponse to a question asking him if he would fight Martinez at a catchweight of 150, Which was a weight Martinez mentioned to try and lure Pacquiao into a fight, Now the main thing here is Martinez is a middleweight who hasn't fought at 154 for four years, If Martinez can make 154 without any problem he would have fought at 154 by now to lure Mayweather, Cotto and Pacquiao into a fight, Anyone that believe Martinez makes 154 "Easy" must either be ******ed or knows nothing about boxing, Martinez can make 154 but he would be a zombie period!

These two will never fight imo

I don't think Cotto and Pacquiao would have ever fought Martinez.

I never said it would be easy, but if you give him a year (6 months at least) to do it then I think he would not be a zombie.

Why drain sergio, let floyd fight at 160, skills win fights, his own words.

But he doesnt wanna fight a skilled big man.

Power and size can definitely make a difference in a fight if the two fighters are remotely close in terms of skills, so I don't see why Floyd should be expected to fight Sergio at 160.

He said skills wins fight not size, his words not mine. If he wants to revive whatever is left of his tainted career he should.

His career is doing fine as far as I can tell. I guess we'll know more in May.

Floyd-Canelo is much more likely though.
