Martinez is huge around the shoulders, he is too big for Manny. It's Mayweather or a Marquez rematch for Pacman.

This is stupid! Martinez just destroyed Williams at 158 and is a former 154 champ PAC is supposedly the 154 champ this is an ideal fight while Mr holiday is on vacation assaulting security officers. if PAc is to small he should not have fought for the 154 title.

Why is this stupid? Martinez is right Pac is too small for him he could barely reach 145. Mayweather on the other hand was 150+ on the scales against De La Hoya and no catchweight. Not to mentioned Martinez a while back said that Mayweather is the true no. 1 p4p king. There you have it, the MW champ wants the no. 1 p4p fighter. I mean a lot of Floyd fans said that Martinez would be an easy fight for Floyd like Taeth said and on other forums there are a lot of Taeth posters thinking that way.

Absurd that some people think that IMO. Mayweather may win that fight, but it wouldn't be easy against a prime, fast, bigger southpaw he could be in heaps of trouble. It'd be an incredibly risky fight and if either of them were to take him on they'd deserve huge credit for it. I don't think either guy fights him though. Personally I'd like Martinez to unify at MW.
Pac isn't even a lmw, let alone a mw, there would be a 20, 25 pound weight difference come fight night. Pacquiao is fast but hell if marg was able to hit him as much as he was able to I'm pretty sure martinez would be able to as well. Martinez has a pretty dam good chin himself with speed to go along with it, hell he took pavliks punches before battering him into submission, so not sure pac would be able to keep him off. I think pac would be knocked out if this fight was to happen, granted we've said this before about pac fights. Let pac stay at 147, 160 is a mountain to high and honestly isn't even an appealing fight for me. As for pbf fighting him doubt that ever comes off, to high a risk for pbf. As cresa said have martinez unify,a fight a year down the road with pirog would be extremely appealing in the meantime he can fight sturm, or who knows a lmw coming up.
Pac never weigh more than 145 in a fight and never more than 149 fight night.
Martinez was 158 at the weigh in. add another 10 lbs for re hydration and he has 20lbs over Pacquiao that wont be a fair fight.
Pac should fight 1 or 2 more times within 147 and then retire. Martinez should go for Bute.
Will Pascal talk about Floyd and pac too if he beat Hopkins?![]()
well apparently, many pactards are saying martinez is overrated and not very good because he lost to margarito earlier in his career. they seem to think that just because margarito knocked out martinez and pacquiao easily beat margarito, that martinez would be an easy fight. WTF?

You can't be picking and choosing who is too big. If your gonna play with fire with a Light Middle title, then you simply have to expect to get burnt. Fight Light Middleweights or give back the title. Manny should stick to 147 | 140. I say Martinez stops probably stops Floyd and definitely Manny at 154.
Pacman has to see that he is not the big fish in the water. If he were a few inches taller and ten ponds heavier, Martinez would be wrong in his assessment of Pacman. Floyd would be a better candidate and Martinez would be too big but the again didn't Margarito knock him out? Weight or no weight styles make fights. One more thing, No one should have to concede weight and be something he is not, a lesser fighter. Henry Armstrong of yesteryear fought the champions at their weight and won.
