If Chavez had more discipline he would have beaten Martinez. He parties waay too much and relies on his natural ability waaay too much.
Sergio started boxing late. He would have trouble with any pure boxer. Nice guy though.

I'm not even a Floyd fan and I'm being called a "troll" for something that is so obvious if you would take a step back and stop thinking like little *****es.

It also wasn't about always about proving themselves as many posters suggest. The example always cited is duran. he went to MW because he ate, drank, and drugged himself out of shape. He got fights because he was still a viable draw and still a good enough fighter to beat good but not great heavier fighters.

The second point is commendable but invalid considering that he fought a "lesser" known fighter in Maidana and got beat the **** up. Pardon the language.
Lastly, most trolls laugh at their own threads they start and make statements like "Now you guys can rest easier at night". Sorry bro.
I'm just being objective here.
You're post:
1.) he's not good enough, skill wise.
2.) he's not popular enough, he has no market value.
Now you guys can rest easier at night.
Lol@the thought of Mayweather ducking an easy UD against Martinez.

It's also difficult to compare eras. Respectfully, for example, guys went from 135 up to 160 in part because there was no 140 or 154 at the time. Not saying your point is incorrect or not valid.
My assessment of Duran is not self serving its honest and accurate. It doesn't in any way take away from his greatness as a fighter.
