Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Has No Problem Facing Golovkin in 2014

[NearHypnos]

If you're so damn brave, if you have so much machismo, Sergio, then for the last few years, why have you called out much smaller guys in Pacquiao and Mayweather, and not gone up and fought Bernard Hopkins????? You haven't gone up to fight Andre Ward more recent? Why not???? You aren't going to step in with GGG, and should you be so delirious to do so, you won't make it 4 rounds.

For those living under a rock... (Like you apparently) you know that belt Pac fought for? >__>...that one Canelo has? That was Sergio's belt..and he did EXACTLY what youre accusing him of not doing and moved up to not only fight a division higher..but to fight huge fighters even at said class...guys who could be at 175.

You want Martinez to move up TWO classes from 154 to 168 for Ward and 3 for bhop!? But heaven forbid he fights these guys at classes theyre fighting at!? Blasphemy! Sometimes comments like that tell you who really likes boxing and who doesnt.

Seriously..GGG KOs a guy Sergio KOd some time ago...and you come up with that? He's afraid to fight GGG but not a damn near light heavy in Jr an almost Pavlik (lineal champ) and a p4p fighter that many consider to have been grossly ducked by Pac and Floyd and who beat the mythical god Margarito? >__>...Oh and he moved up to fight these guys? So scared.


I absolutely LOVE GGG but it's like some of these guys woke up and saw GGG as their first and only boxing match.

fine, but the joke's on you for rewatching that ****. Hope I got you to review all the ****ty rounds after the KD. I take it Martinez won one, the 12th?

Having that cognitive dissonance flare up again?

GGG would have to work to get the Martinez KO.

GGG with his non existent head movement is in for a rude awakening if he, or his fans, think he's gonna run over Sergio like he did Macklin. He may win later in the fight but he's going to have to earn it.

GGG is not a bigger puncher than Kostya Tsyzu was, and Kostya's power was mitigated plenty of times in big fights.

The guy that will end GGG immediately is SOG WARD!

For those who don't remember: Martinez started as a welterweight and established himself as a light middleweight. His great talent helped him become champ in the middleweight division, where he is still a small of a fighter.

Martinez said the exact same thing about a fight with "Sugar" Chavez.

He then proceeded to spend the next two years hiding out in the hills of Yemen, occasionally appearing on HBO to fight one of the goat farmers he had met.

Again, maybe I'll rewatch it when I have time, but if it's how I remember it, I'll show no mercy to all of you for making me sit through it again.

Chavez place is in the 168 division -- if not 175.

Sergio needs to be the version he was against Jr. (minus the last couple rounds). If that Sergio shows up, I think he has a good chance at beating GGG. If not, GGG by TKO.

See boxing fans this is what you call a TRUE CHAMPION!!! While many here don't think he should fight or would fight him for whatever reasons Martinez just said "I'll fight him" with no talk about star power, money, no 800 demands, etc.

Man, you sure changed your tune. What happened to Sergio not needing to fight GGG cuz he deserves a big PPV against a faded, smaller Cotto? I hope you're right that he is a true champion and faces the top contender and threat to his lineal title. Because you will then see that I was right. GGG beats him.Sergio has had some great moments but he almost lost to Jr. and Murray and it's time to pass cash. Hit me up if that fight ever does happen and we can bat some serious cash. I'll give you good odds.

There is a lot of hate for a champion pledging to do what we all wished every champ would do. You all should stop watching boxing if you can't appreciate the heart of a true champion.
