I don't hear people yelling for a macklin rematch or a pavlik rematch both who made it much closer fights, both had martinez down at some point, just not in the last round so were not getting this shit about what would happen the round after cause we saw what happened martinez goes back to dominating...I'm sorry this was a borring fight and I have no desire to see it again.
Boxing is a business, fighters are contractors who work where they make the most money. That last minute KD insured a rematch between Martinez and Chavez will bring another huge payday for both fighters. Whether or not Chavez deserves a rematch is immaterial because money drives boxing. Pavlik and Macklin aren't hugely popular Mexican fighters and Mexicans support and believe in their fighters as well as any country. Hey, I'll pop for PPV again because I want to see if Martinez can do it again, or will Chavez listen to Roach and let his hands go sooner. Get used to it, there will be a rematch. Vegas is salivating already.
