    The fans were happy. Exactly. Why wouldn't you be? It's because your hero had exactly that boring running clinching style, isn't it?

    Please don't tell me you care about these people's well-being. You don't care about Haymon's mismatches. You never cared when Salka was almost put to sleep by Danny "Businessman" Garcia. You never cared when Zerafa was put on a stretcher after being viciously attacked by a huge, rampaging Quillin.

    You people need to stop this "I care about boxers' well-being" crap.

      And he was injured in the KD, so his attitude after the KD has nothing to do with the injury.
      He had no choice he got floored,hurt and was being stalked by a bigger man

              No, he injured his leg in the KD. That's it.

                Explain to me how Sergio Martinez is a brawler. We're talking here about his attitude when hurt in the 12nd round.

                  I can't explain to you how Sergio Martinez is a brawler, because I never said he was. I was speaking in general, your comment that "this is what fans want to see" it clearly isn't, the highest sold PPV's involve boxers.

                    i think what they are saying is that sergio never should have even let chavez jr throw punches. he should have clinched before chavez could throw like in floyd, ward, and wlad fights. the best defense is not letting your opponent have any offense. SKILL! BOXING!

                      Show me on the doll all of the amazing fights between two pure boxers that anyone still even mentions or remembers.
