Martinez vs Murray?

If you read closely i said that's what mayweather would do In Martinez's current position. As in being 38 coming off surgery and a broken left hand Both of the people you named were undefeated at the time. Who would have been a better fight at that time? If Sergio was a welterweight he would go through Floyd's resume undefeated as well.When has Mayweather fought a random WW? s In recent years outside of Marquez he's fought nothing but guys who were ranked at or near the top of the divison.
Murray being at #7 is one of the most undeserving rankings I've ever seen. How he is in the Top 10 is a mystery.
This is a joke of a fight and Mayweather would never have a fight as big as a joke as this is.
"He's allowed atleast one slightly below P4P par fight"
So what was Darren Barker? He wasn't and isn't even a Top 20 level MW let alone P4P.
What was Dzinziruk? Tail end of the Top 10 at Jr MW.
These aren't "P4P Par" fights.

I don't see how.
He's a decently skilled fighter but what has he done in his career? Very little.
I'm not saying it's Darren Barker level, it was a solid win it certainly isn't "P4P Par".Comment

Ah, the good old Mayweather vacation strategy. Only Mayweather fans prefer to see their favorite fighter not fight at all instead of keeping busy "because he would have beaten them anyway."
What's a bigger disgrace? A fighter fighting a nobody, or a fighter fighting nobody?Comment

How about anyone in the Top 30 at MW?
"Who would have been a better fight than Darren Barker"

Anyone who hadn't had just one fight above domestic level and in that one fight which was at European level struggled badly.Comment

Oh well. Maybe he should have just not fought for a year or two and then fight a past prime name fighter then take off for another year and then a similar level opponent. Then rinse and repeat over and overWho would have been a better fight than Darren Barker or Dzinzurik at the time?

You're forgetting that just a few months ago Martinez was considered one of the most avoided fighters in the world. Mayweather, by contrast, can pick and choose whoever he wants to fight (hardly anyone would turn down a Mayweather fight). Geale and Quillin both turned down Martinez before Barker was pickedd as a last resort. As it is Barker is immensely underrated as a middleweight.
Shamba Mitchell wasn't exactly a world class welterweight either when Floyd fought him.
Martinez has regularly been fighting 2-3 times per year; Mayweather has fought 4 times in the last five years (all of which were expensive PPVs).
Also I don't think Guerrero is a bad opponent, I just think it's a boring fight because I already know how the fight will go.Comment
