Comments Thread For: Team Martinez: We'll Fight Canelo, Only at 160 and on HBO

[-Kev-]

He won't get the fight if he makes it this complicated.

this doesn't look good for martinez. he's willing to go down to 154 for mayweather but not for canelo. Where's the logic in that? mayweather was the riskier fight. kinda gives you the feeling something's up with martinez. is he too old for this shIt

[BabyFaceAssasin]

Canelo should move up to 160 if he wants Martinez. I'm tired of all these catch weights.

[josenoway]

He should drop to 154 if he wants Ginger, he'd beat the p1ss out of Canelo at either weight.

Can it be going down to 154 is worth it for Mayweather but not for Canelo?

[Red Power]

I thought Martinez was a super welterweight?

The man is a full blown middleweight. He may be an inch or two shorter than the ideal middleweight, but his size and power makes a full fledged 160 pounder. Anyone trying to claim otherwise is blowing smoke.

People dont understand negotiating power in boxing. Why would a MW champ move down to fight a paper champ? Why would Sergio concede to Canelo?

All of this. Sergio would trash him at any weight anyway. He just happens to have earned more pull than Canelo, who's a ****ing diva nowadays.

He's dispatch Canelo, I could see a late TKO or KO for Sergio.

Light work.

Sergio thinks he is slick. He will fight Floyd at 154 because he knows Floyd isn't comfortable at that weight. He knows floyd has never even weighed 154 for a fight so he knows he's fighting a small guy. He won't fight Canelo cuz he naturally fights at 154 and Canelo won't be comfy at 160. I thought canelo mentioning martinez as an option was bull**** anyway. Just didnt make sense. On another note, I think it's pretty crazy that everyone from 135 to 160 is chasing a fight with Money May. Guys wanna jump 2 weight classes (Guerrero), come down 2 weight classes(Martinez), get guarantees to fight him before their next fight happens(Alvarez), jump in the ring after his fights(Mosley), etc. if trout wins, I wonder who he'll call out? At least guys 140 and below can go after broner now.

Why does Canelo think he calls any shots? his best win is Mosley lolol. Martinez would Make him go up to 160 because Canelo is the one getting a lucky shot. Wouldn't be right for Martinez to go down to a lesser fighter's weight. Although Martinez would whip his azz at any weight. And the reason he would go down for Floyd is because he thinks Floyd is at the top of the sport so he wants to challenge him. Not that hard to understand.
