Pac and Martinez to beat Floyd?

[captainanddew]

Martinez - First fight against Pw, he used right hook to the body and head to great effect. He varied the left as well, often throwing a very short sneaky lead left.

Martinez is much more than just a left hand.

Martinez has more speed and power than Floyd.

Martinez vs Floyd-martinez slight favorite

If Mayweather fights Pacquiao the way he fights Cotto, then I see it as a more competitive fight.

If Mayweather fights Pacquiao the way Marquez fought Pacquiao, then he will dominate the match.

But my above assessment can change depending on the Pacquiao-Bradley fight. It will give me an idea as to how much slippage Manny has gone through.

Below 154, Martinez is no match for Mayweather. Above that Floyd is toast.

If floyd would agree to 154, Martinez would take it in a second. He is still a 154 pounder fighting at 160. And Martinezc could make 154. Martinez weighed 165 pounds against barker int he ring. Last night- mosley-164, canelo-167.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Neither Pac or Martinez will beat Floyd if the fight takes place this year. PBF is 35 and needs the Pac fight in 2012 not next year. Pacman is looking battle weary and it will be very interesting to see how he comes up against Bradley. Floyd has 1 maybe 2 fights left in him, but he sure knows how to beat these predictable fighters, Cotto fought well, but Floyd was never really in jeopardy throughout the fight. Pacman is unpredictable so that might cause him some concern, but Floyd is so good defensively i just can't see Pacman hitting the target enough to win.
Martinez is not in the same class and at 154 loses a wide UD to Floyd.

I think Martinez gets destroyed. He hangs back too much giving Floyd plenty of chance to pick him off. However if he lands with one of his super punches who knows. I think Pac has a better chance as he is a pressure fighter and would be on top of Floyd all night. Floyd does not like pressure.

I've always favored Floyd over Martinez and Pacquiao. With Martinez, the weight would come into play, the higher the weight, the more likely Martinez has the chance of pulling the upset. I still may favor Floyd, even at 160, but its a closer fight than if it were at 150. Floyd doesn't believe in catch weights, at least that is what he stated prior to the Cotto fight, so it would be at 154.

The fight to make now is Cotto versus Martinez. Who do you like in that one?
