    Sergio Martinez would likely quit from continually being knocked down.

      Ouma is a pretty good fighter some of these smaller lowkey names go under the radar because of that but a lot of these guys from Africa are tough as nails and only two people ever stopped Ouma I think it had more to do with stylistically Ouma being a southpaw and clearly possessing a granite chin that not even a prime Jermain Taylor could crack.

        martinez was there with pavlik for 12 rounds. so i don't think that power will be the main problem for him but more of GGG style. close fight imo but i think GGG body work and cutting of the ring would get to sergio sooner or later.

          Maravilla gets stretcher'd

          look at #3

          Boxers that ducked/ducking GGG

          1---Felix sturm - wouldn't fight him for over 2 years when GGG was mandatory.

          2---Peter quillin - said he will only fight for the may-pac kind of money, lol + he flew to Haymon to avoid GGG

          3---Sergio martinez - "His promoter said that "no way I am putting him with this monster", GGG kept calling him out after his U.S. debut after every fight

          4---Miguel cotto - ducked his mandatory(GGG) twice by fighting Geale and Canelo

          5---Julio cesar chavez jr - Turned down 12mil offer by TR

          6---Saul alvarez - Avoided his mando(GGG). Thinks that he is fighting at the weight-class of 155, as there is no such thing as a "155 weight-class" ,he is pretending to be not in the MW division because of GGG.There are 17 divisions just pick one, if you can't make 154 then you are a MW, simple.

          7---Carl froch - After calling GGG out then when GGG accepted ,he backed down and now he is retired after making all the fuss, + GGG was calling him for more than a year b4 he was retired so no excuses for "retiring".

          8---Andrea Ward - The diva of the 168lb division don't want to travel or meet the a-side GGG in a catchweight so he can become a good boy and get ktfo. Was willing to goto 160 for Floyd but when GGG said 164, Ward ducked + he was fine when Dawson came down a whole division for him but wont move half a division for GGG, smh

          9---Billy joe Saunders - Even before winning the WBO title from Lee his fear of Golovkin was as biright as day this is just one of many interviews(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJuwAz-ekoQ), then after winning it he priced himslef out at 6 mil$. Then turned down $3.2mill offer from k-2(its 2.2 gbp so I converted)

          10---Hassaan ndam njikam -When Hassaan was WBO champ, he was ordered to a purse bid to face Golovkin no less than two times and he was a no show each time.

          11---Darren Barker - When Barker defeated Geale to become IBF champ, his promoter openly said that Barker will fight any1 except GGG

            I think Martinez will cut him with combos and stop him on cuts or win a UD.

              I'd favor GGG, but he'll get bust up for his trouble

              He hasnt faced many southpaws and the ones he did face that I watched touched him up a bit....a shot Kassim Ouma and Willie Monroe.....A prime Martinez is a lot more dangerous than those too.

              GGG takes a few to make his way inside. I see him winning a come from behind stoppage. He doesnt always work when he gets in close. He doesnt move his head as much as he needs and will be eating straight lefts.

              Before the leg injuries, Martinez showed a pretty good chin. Went to war with Williams, took the best Pavlik had to offer, etc.

              GGG late round stoppage.....Martinez was a southpaw with deceptive power....Both would probably get dropped.

              Martinez will be bloodied and battered. So will GGG with his hand raised.

                ......you dont get credit for fights that didnt happen....what is up with you guys and that garbage

                this guy is not the first fighter that had trouble finding opponents nor is he the only one today.....Rigondeaux, Ward, Lomachenko and others have all had trouble finding opponents throughout their careers.

                    Tough fight to call, I'd say 50/50-- GGG by late KO or Martinez by decision. Too bad this fight never happened...

                      Martinez' "prime" was quite short.
