Ooh that is horrible. I love Martinez but his leg was done to bits and he couldn't lean on or find any leverage with that leg last time out. Now older and after a full camp it cannot go well. He relied in movement so much in his prime and Chavez only caught him last time when he slowed a bit at the end. A bad idea and I hope it doesn't happen.
Always enjoyed his fights. I hope he has a long fruitful retirement. In interviews I’ve seen he is still coherent, good on him
I heard he was making a comeback. It was mentioned a month ago but it's all gone quiet since.
i can't imagine both knees have fully healed and if they haven't it would be a huge mistake to get ko'd by Chavez for a quick payday
As was stated above, movement was too much of his game. He has an old mans knees and a young mans style. After a few rounds, he'd be a sitting duck for big 160 pounders and weight bullies.
These type of injuries only get worse as you get older due to all the parts of the joint. He's had the surgery and that's good but between boxing, soccer and cycling, His meniscus (cartilage disc between the bones) in his knees are probably wearing thin. I used to refer to my knees as left and right, I refer to them as bad and worse due to ligament tears I never got the surgery for. ACL in the left knee (same injury Sergio has in right) and MCL in the right. Bad and Worse refers to the difficulty getting them back into place after they've slipped out (left one can be forced straight and popped back in but it hurts like hell because it pinches the meniscus... the other has to be hyperflexed behind me, aligned and then released into place and sometimes takes a few tries to get the alignment right). They stay put if I use a brace when doing anything athletic (but remember roach played the NYSAC on that... though brace may no longer be an issue if hes had the surgery and rehab)
Sergio is a weatherman now... He knows when the rains coming.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

I can't believe there isn't more outrage about a 43 year old Martinez, who was beyond shot, returning. Although Chavez Jr isn't great, size and youth, as well as overall wellbeing will play a big roll.
Supposed to be at 168, on Nov-17, promoted by Hearn on DAZN.
