Floyd Mayweather/Sergio Martinez likely

[Xi_]

the same dumb-asse$ would hated on the mosley and canelo fights(too old/too young) will be the same dumb asses would hate on a martinez fight. they'll tell you they won't prior to the fight but they'll start crying soon afterwards

floyd won't get credit? you're another idiot that knows nothing about boxing. which is why you said what you said. sergio martinez is the recognized ring magazine 160lb WBC champion of the world. floyd has WBC titles at 130,135,140,147,and 154. collecting 160 sets him apart from all the rest in the history of the sport. now that some credit for your ass.

floyd wouldn't get credit from ****** boxing fans is what irondanhamza is trying to point out, just like the mosley fight.

Wrong. He got credit for the Mosley fight, but not the type of credit you get, when you fight a prime Mosley.

No one's literally tossing that Mosley fight away, like it never happened. The people that are "hating" on that fight just aren't hyping it up like he beat a fresh, non war torn, prime Mosley.

Where as, you got the other crew. The Floyd groupies that think the fight was equivalent to Leonard's win over Hearns.

Whether he deserves it or not he won't get it from this fight.

Just way too many excuses ready. I think time has shown us how these things unfold.

"90 years old"

"Inactive"

"Injury Prone"

"Looked like **** in his last fight"

It's basically a carbon copy of the Mosley fight except Mosley wasn't injury prone and was actually coming off an impressive win and you've seen how people discredit that fight.

He's one of those Floyd stans that always complains that Floyd doesn't get credit for anything, but turns around and discredits every other fighter's accomplishments.

You must have him confused then

[Doctor_Tenma]

On a serious note I cannot think of a single respectable poster on this site, (or anyone I do in life), who'd discredit Floyd for even taking this fight.

But also just because Martinez has been struggling with gigantic middleweights lately that doesn't mean he'd do that bad against a smaller fighter.

Martinez can't even move well for fucks sake, be real now.

Floyds got to fight Sergio or someone really,really good, great if possible.
Team mayweather always say you have to do something really great to qualify to fight Floyd? Well when is Floyd going to do something special?
Always saying Floyd is held to higher standards, people ask him to fight middleweights and stuff like that? Instead Floyd fights weight drained green fighters like Canelo

First of all, he didn't receive any credit for that win, at least not around here(nsb and esb). Second, I've never heard any floyd fans claim that was a prime mosley......floyd beat the number #1 ww and a top 5 p4p fighter and got *****ted on for it after the fight by the same people claimed he was ducking. So yes irondan makes a great point in what he is saying because all the stars are aligned, just this time there are way more excuses in a martinez fight than there was for the mosley fight.

Floyd got credit mostly for actually taking the fight because many thought he was chicken.
As for credit for actually winning, no he didn't get that much, as SSM lost quite a good few fights he was overated for beating margarita and wasn't a top 5 fighter. SSM also didn't perform to well as well, had an off night.

He will get more credit for fighting Sergio. Sergio people can see is better than SSM, he don't lose as readily.

I would love it if Floyd decided to fight Sergio, but it's not gonna happen.
