Sergio needs to retire

I wouldn't say he needs to retire just yet, but I agree that he's slipping. I understand the surgery and wet ring, but he wasn't avoiding punches like he should and he seemed to lack some pop. I know Murray didn't give him a whole lot, but the performance was lackluster. I'd like to see him recover then come back. At this age though, who knows?Comment

Well I think we can all agree.....either Sergio has been effected by a combination of his age and surgery, or he had an off night clearly.
This was basically a joke fight going in, and Murray did better than he was supposed to do. Similar to Provonikov where he put on a good performance against Bradley.
This wasn't some daunting task that the mighty Sergio Martinez decided to step up and face....no this was the equivalent of someone like Pacquiao, Marquez, or Mayweather fighting a Josesito Lopez or something.Comment

According to those that didnt take the time to take a good look at Murray. I knew he would give a very good account of himself, and the Lopez comment just shows ignorance. Murray has gone into the lions den on the international stage twice and put on very good performances. Its not a fluke, he is just a very good fighter and deserves the respect he has earned in the ring. You rate and respect Quillin, but not Murray? Who exactly does Quillin have on his resume that tops Sturm and Martinez away from home?
Or Murray-N'Dam would be a good fight. Sergio underwhelmed, he was supposed to dominate Martin Murray, not arguably lose to him.Comment

No, I think Quillin was a little exposed against N'Dam, a fighter with movement like that will eat him alive.Quillin just has good power that saved him in that fight. Quillin-Murray would be a good fight to see which of them is the real deal. But Martin Murray, we need to stop acting like Sergio took on some big challenge going in. Sergio didn't even think it would be a hard fight, and whether it was the age or surgery, or whatever, he looked like crap.

I'm not alarmed or the least bit concerned about Maravilla. There's a host of issues that combined for a perfect storm of a lousy performance. He'll be back as the same P4P Sergio in his next fight I'm sure, but time will tell. Talk that he lost this fight is nonsense though.Comment
