Sergio Martinez vs. Matthew Macklin - St. Pat's day fight thread

[Mars_ax]

Macklin and Martinez in the ring.. I could be wrong but Macklin seems a bit delusional.

Here we go..

[Mars_ax]

Uneventful 1st round.

[Spicoli]

Why refs not fixing that body armor slash guard Martinez has is a mystery. Think he's going to start toying him big time here

[Mars_ax]

What happened to Macklin brawling? He seems to be trying to box Martinez.

[Spicoli]

Macklins straight right is bugging Martinez big that round, breaking his rhythm up. He believes

[ruthless rocco]

i take it back the hbo people are morons as well. i just wanna hear the fight w/out commentary.

[Spicoli]

3-1 Martinez. He really started to assert second part of that round. Macklins face is starting to mark up

[Spicoli]

Hell, I gave 5th to Macklin...3-2. Martinez needs to sit down and put em together. He got hit solid that round

[Spicoli]

Honest queston here to any guys who box-train......is it an advantage to have waist guard allowed that high in back Helps mobility, frees up waist movement? Killians Red is kicking my ass

[Mars_ax]

Whoa, Ledderman has the fight even after 4, 38-38.

An upset in the making?

[Mars_ax]

Ledderman still has it even after 6, 57-57.

[Mars_ax]

Martinez better get his fucking act together, he's losing rounds.

[Spicoli]

Martinez better get his head out of his starstruck ass and get down to business!!! This is all even if not Martinez trailing.

He's fighting half assed a bit

[Majesty]

Very good fight, but I don't think he should fight Mayweather 80-20. He should offer it 60-40 or 50-50 cause from that fight I don't think he'd beat Mayweather.

Great performance and great knockout.

Even with that big size advantage over Mayweather, With a performance lke that, Martinez doen't have the conditioning to compete with Mayweather. Mayweather would pick him apart Martinez is way too slow for Mayweather.
