Sergio Martinez - The Newest Fighter Mayweather Can Duck!!!

adding to the already long list of of fighters he's ducked (Casamayor @ Jr. Light, Mosley @ Light, Tszyu @ Light Welter, Cotto/Margarito/Pacman/Williams @ Welter).

Now if Floyd wasn't such a pussy a fight with Martinez makes perfect sense. Martinez coming off a HUGE win, he'd get another title at 154lb as well as the 160lb title as well, which could be a perfect bargaining tool with a fight with Pacman (LOL just in-case he grows a pair in the mean time).

Didnt somebody on here report he had a deal to fight him earlier this year? Something like $5mil for Martinez and eveything else for Floyd? Martinez already said he'd do 154lb and fight him. No way Mayweather fights him now after he destroyed PWill

Yeah. http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...-martinez.html

I'm feeling fairly critical of Floyd atm but...

Didn't Floyd fight JMM who demolished Casmayor. Wrecked an undefeated Hatton who beat Tszyu.
Beat Mosley who Kayo'd Margarito.

Don't mean to be pedantic and pick your post apart, but there are far better things to criticise Mayweather about.

as crazy as this may sound, i think mayweather jr. beats him! sergio martinez is surging right now, he's good and he's dangerous but nobody can match mayweather's defensive and overall skills. floyd jr. by UD.

yes he did fight those guys but not any of them when they were at there peak or the best weights. JMM is a light weight at best, Hatton was never a welter and Mosley was a complet fighter at Lightweight.

Boring...Maybe he's the newest fighter Manny Pacquiao can duck too? I mean Martinez isn't in Bob Arums inner-stable is he so I guess that makes Martinez a no go. Maybe they'll try and bring Martinez down to 131 1/2 lbs and still have the middleweight title on the line? Pac is guilty of just as many, if not more boxing crimes than Floyd is.

Man some of you miss Floyd a hell of a lot lol..

I'm with u jdonaher1 completely! Bless him doesn't want 2 lose his 0, but wot is an 0 worth if ur not prepared 2 put it on the line, fuckin fag! PAC or Martinez would smash him up and I would love every second of it :)

Can someone explain to me how a WW not fighting a MW constitutes ducking? I get that Floyd's resume is pretty weak at 147, but come on, Martinez would have to kill himself to get near 154 and Mayweather weighed, what, 150/151 against ODLH? No way that fight gets made, no way Pac/Martinez gets made, its hardly ducking if you don't fight someone that's just naturally away from your own weight class.

Could one pose the argument that JMM, Hatton, Casa and Shane all fought Mayweather at a weight that wasn't his best?

It goes two ways.

Mayweather or Pacquiao isn't mandated to fight Martinez a career 154 pound fighter, now a 160 pound fighter. At this point of their careers mayweather and Pac are both 147 fighters. This kind of stuff is nonsense about ducking Martinez.

Martinez is ducking Pirog.

by Geoffrey Ciani (Ep. 84: Published August 7, 2010) This week’s 84th edition of On the Ropes Boxing Radio featured an exclusive with the newly crowned WBO middleweight champion Dmitry Pirog who is coming off of a sensational knockout victory against Daniel Jacobs for the vacant title.

On whether he feels he needs to fight Sergio Martinez to feel like the true champion based on the way Martinez was stripped of the title:

“I feel that I’m Ready for Any Fighter. I WANT To Fight SERGIO MARTINEZ. I Want To Fight Kelly Pavlik or AnyBody in the CAtegory that will Want to Fight Me. I’m Ready for AnyBody and I Really Hope I can fight on HBO and impress my fans again. I hope that I made an impression.”
