Thread: Sergio Martinez: Pac is too small that's a mismatch, Floyd is perfect for a fight

Sergio Martinez: "Pacquiao is Too Small, It's a Mismatch" - Boxing News

The lineal MW champ thinks he's too big for Pac and that's a mismatch because of the size, he thinks fighting Floyd is perfect and a good matchup.

I think he said he can do 156 for pac or floyd, but he may be right. Pac doesn't even make the 147 limit.

If pac and floyd doesnt get it on, I would rather have pac go for all the marbles and fight Sergio at 156 and win or lose retire.

Yep, me too.

I don't see 156,too high and too close to Martinez's comfort zone. Mayweather and Pacquiao are both faster, more versatile and better balanced than Martinez. Pavlik and Williams are not the same caliber is either of the top 2.

Williams got careless. He didn't adjust after the first round. He fought Sergio's fight.

I say Team Pac should fight Martinez at 154 asap.

Middle weight is 160 pounds. No more. No less.

If you can't fight at 160 pounds then it's not a middleweight fight and titles shouldn't be on the line.

If you want to fight a middleweight fight one without trying to drain them. Fight them at their optimum weight otherwise it's a bullshit handicap match.

If you want to fight at 154 that's light middleweight so fight someone in the light middleweight division AT 154 POUNDS!

martinez is right, it would be a mismatch. remember that martinez is in his physical prime, is bigger than pacquiao and has impressive handspeed. this wouldn't bode well for team pacquiao. this fight will never happen!

They are both too small...enough of these catchweights. Every good fighter in every division doesn't have to fight floyd or pac geeeezuussss.

Berto or Alexander/Bradley winner are also potential candidates. Unless you're telling me that they don't have speed or past their prime? Oh right, the excuse will be they were too green.

bulldog,

of course alexander, berto or bradley would be great matchups for pacquiao!!! at least pacquiao would be fighting opponents who can almost match his handspeed. i never said they weren't! and FYI, i was commenting that martinez would be too big for pacquiao and it would be a mismatch. no way in hell pacquiao beats him.

i'd much racher see Alexander/Bradley at 140 than some handicap match.

Of course Pacquiao wouldn't beat Martinez, the size and skills would be too much. Hell I don't think Pacquiao even weighed more than 145 on the scales ever. But Floyd can actually make weight for 150+ on the scales like he did against De La Hoya. Now that would be an interesting matchup.

I'd agree that a martinez/mayweather jr. match would be excellent but that's if mayweather would take that challenge which i seriously doubt he would, especially of what transpired last night!

senior was especially concern about martinez being a lefty. i doubt mayweather's camp would consider fighting him.

yeah, this fight (martinez/mayweather) will never happen!
