I hope emanuel doesn't put lee in there with martinez yet but seems like he wouldn't mind the fight
Barker was a hard nut to crack the way he was covering up, coming forward, and smothering Sergio's punches. All in all, I thought this was a good win for Martinez and it wasn't easy like a lot of us thought it would be.

I don't know WTF Manny is thinking, I believe Lee would get destroyed by Martinez, Andy better fight one of the other trinket holders if he wants to win a title or wait 'til Sergio turns 40.
I think Martinez stops Lee and his leaky defense 10 times out of 10. BUT, I would assume Manny feels that a good technical fighter with a great jab who is a natural middleweight might be able to out-box Martinez. I think he's wrong in this case, but I could see the logic behind that kind of thinking.
Exactly. I agree with you completely. Thanks for your email yesterday too!!
