This is true. Martinez has been saying for a while now that he has trouble making 130. He even had a fight at 135 before the first Salido fight.
He just kept cutting weight because that's where the money was.
As for Pedraza I wouldn't mind seem him face Lomachenko. If it's true that Arum and Haymon are willing to work together then that would be a great fight to start the cooperation with.
... at that time, Crawford was in the lightweight division...
Don't kid yourself! He barely beat Edner Cherry! Lom will box circles around Pedraza.
Lets make a bet if they make the fight, Im sure Pedraza will beat lomachenko. BTW Pedraza beat the only person that beat Loma in the amateur, they never fought each other doe.
drained or not drained, Martinez was not going to win.
^^^^^This....martinez is a limited yet exciting fighter. Far to easy to hit for a technician like Loma or someone like a Mikey Garcia. Sharp shooters will blitz martinez 9/10...I give him this though, the kid has MAD HEART
Lets make a bet if they make the fight, Im sure Pedraza will beat lomachenko. BTW Pedraza beat the only person that beat Loma in the amateur, they never fought each other doe.
No one who struggles with Edner Cherry beats Lom. I'll bet all my points, if not, money then. Lom is on a different level now. One guy is solid, the other guy is sensational.
IBF super featherweight world champion Jose "Sniper" Pedraza (22-0, 12KOs) was ringside at the Theater in Madison Square Garden in New York City last weekend, and watched good friend Roman "Rocky" Martinez lose his WBO championship by way of a brutal knockout at the hands of Vasyl Lomachenko (6-1, 4KOs).

You know Loma is on the cusp when the excuse for losing to him is weight drained. The last time we heard that was our friend Alvarez getting served by Mayweather
Rocky had n chance in that fight regardless. He was in over his head. I knew it, the rest of Puerto Rico watchin knew it. I live in PR and even i knew he was gonna lose and had no chance. Sad to say but i speak what i feel, doesnt matter if hes a fello countryman.
... at that time, Crawford was in the lightweight division...
Yeah. High risk, low reward Crawford.
It's safe to say that Martinez squeezed more money out of the Mexico vs Puerto Rico rivalry with Salido then be would have made getting blasted out by the relatively unknown Crawford.
No one who struggles with Edner Cherry beats Lom. I'll bet all my points, if not, money then. Lom is on a different level now. One guy is solid, the other guy is sensational.
You dont have the points to go all in BUT i give double the amount u have if loma wins, think about it Pedraza is taller rangy and fight at southpaw stance with quick hands and great reflexes... Lets do this.
