checkmate, dumb ****

He does support gay rights, and actively campaigns against all types of bullying, and domestic violence but that doesn't mean he's gay. I have no idea what he likes but to think someone must be gay because he supports gay rights don't make any sense.

I don't understand why there are so many people who think dude is gay. I mean unless you know him personally it's impossible to know who he's sleeping with.

watch the it gets better pledge video he did....I posted the link previously in this thread....He talks from experience....thats why I think hes gay. Do you need him to formally announce it and have a big coming out party. Its self explanatory and already not a secret to the people close to him. He doesnt need to "come out" for the press. His skills do the talking, unlike that other gay puerto rican boxer who needed publicity.

Folks forget how much the original trainer sacrificed for Sergio..like literally these dudes both walked away from a myriad of opportunities to invest and work with Martinez. I understand Martinez's angle but anyone who walks through fire with you without needing to is a brother from another mother. When Sergio sits down to talk about how he had no food, no shelter, nothing but the clothes on his back he's always credited the older brother with opening doors to provide both without ever asking for anything. Moving on to another trainer is fine but how you let your brother sit in a jail less than 2 hours from your house and don't pay a visit once for close to two years? Sarmiento has every right to be pissed..he put a lot on the line for Martinez..has he made some money in the process? Yes but that's not how you repay that level of kindness...i'm sorry but that's just grimy. On the topic of whether Martinez is gay or not..my wife asked if he was the first time she saw him talking in an interview and women usually have an eye for these things.

There's nothing he says in that video that is some kind of evidence that he's gay but according to you he's talking about his experience from a gay mans perspective, right?

You THINK he's gay because in your opinon he gives off gay vibes. But at the same time you claim to know that there's no secret to the people close to him. You don't have to guess and assume if you know him and his people. I don't believe that you know the people close to him...you're just seeing what you wanna see. You have decided that Martinez is gay and now you do pretty much everything you can even analyzing every words he says to prove he's gay.

Clearing up some nonsense

I know Sergio personally and he is not gay. He was married for many years and got divorced right before he started making a name for himself, so basically he's a genius.

Plus gabby is bitter at everyone because he owes close to $800k to the family of the person that he beat up and subsequently made disabled so he's got money issues and who has the most money from anyone that he knows or has known in the past 20 years? Sergio.

Basically he's looking for a bailout.

The answer to 99 out of 100 questions? Money

Not a whole lot of information in that article. Sarmiento says Sergio betrayed him. Offers no reasons explaining why except for one slightly mental one.

Who knows what this shit is about man. You can't make any judgements on the basis of a report like that.

Agreed, people here love to stir up drama and jump to conclusions like 13 year old girls. Ridiculous.

Green K sent.

Being formerly married does not mean you are not gay. Hell, being married does not mean you are not gay.

I know a gay man who was married with a son. Now he's the gayest person you could ever meet and his grown son is also gay.

I know a man who was gay then got married, and is still married today with 2 kids. He pretends to his wife and his family that he's no longer gay, but she's blinkered and lets him go out... he always goes to gay clubs.

Hrm... I seem to know a lot of gay people.

I have no idea if Sergio Martinez is gay though. I'm not even remotely suggesting he is, nor that it is any of our business. Who gives a **** if somebody is gay or straight. What's next? Being against somebody because of the colour of their skin? Oh... wait a minute...

That pic of Kate upton is awesome WOW!!!

I do recall Martinez on 24/7 getting some suits etc... and that came across as extravagant. I know a lot of gays are extremely self conscious like that.
