Mayweather - Martinez ?

[bzkfn]

Theres already a thread about Floyd fighting Martinez.

Yeah but this one is specifically about Martinez. Yours is more of an all encompassing umbrella. In fact all of these points could have been covered in this excellent thread
http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...at-thread.html as further summing up and post fight postulation but then we would have fewer threads and the good ship Saddo would lose some steam.

If you go further back into the Saddo archives you will see that I already started a thread back in 2011 http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...floyd+martinez by employing a time machine and trying to steal your thunder. It did not work though because back in 2010 someone had already posted this http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...floyd+martinez but even that was preceded by this http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...floyd+martinez and then of course more recently this one http://www.saddoboxing.com/boxingfor...floyd+martinez

How the fuck can some of you dislike @Greenbeanz ? Absolute genius poster and you have to commend the research put forward here to firmly put @ross back in his place.

Hrdly, my thread was relevant. Floyd needs new challenges after neating the supposed biggest threat to him umder middle

Martinez has said before he'd come down to 154 for the right fight. He's looking for one massive payday and Floyd could fight him at 155 and win the lineal middleweight title.

Floyd needs attractive B sides to sell his PPVs. The Guerrero promotion lost money for Showtime, the Canelo fight made them lots of money. There's a serious shortage of PPVable dance partners for Floyd at 147 and 154 so Martinez must be getting a mention by Showtime executives.

Only problem is he has one fight left on his HBO contract. But he's definitely going to be a serious contender for the second of Floyd's four contracted fights if he still has a belt.

Ah ok, so Martinez pretty well has to fight somebody else first anyways. If I were him I'd rather try and make lightweight to fight Floyd than Golovkin at 160, seeing as he wouldn't make much money in the latter. Trouble is who does he fight next on HBO then? Ideally he could gun for say Trout or Lara and come in under 160 to prepare himself, but those are both fights he could easily lose, and maybe those guys are exclusive to showtime as well now I'm still always confused as to who is with who these days, shame it's so important.

[Kirkland Laing]

It's a shame for him. Chavez will never see 160 again and Ward is too big for him so there's no even medium money fight for him at HBO. He's only got two or three fights left and he wants a massive retirement payday. That means a Floyd fight is his number one aim. HBO's aim will be to keep him away from Showtime and Floyd. It's difficult for him.
