    I mean who else is there besides Pirog? Is there anyone? Maybe if Dzinziruk or one of the other champs from 154 stepped up in weight.

    I think Pirog is quite possible, the guy is cheap it seems he got paid about 30k for the fight with Jacobs, I think this fight is to early for Pirog he needs to fight one or two solid fighters. Macklin v Pirog could be fun as long as it lasted.

    He should either move down to Jr Middleweight, and fight the likes of Miguel Cotto. Or move up and fight someone like Lucian Bute ETC. Because there's virtually no one at Middleweight except for a few upcoming prospects.

    Which Sergio Martinez won't want to bother with, because he's 35 and he hasn't got anytime to waste. Especially because of what kind of fighter he is a slick fighter.

    I can see a trilogy with Williams making sense in the future, but probably not his next fight. Do you think Arum would put Cotto or Margarito in with him now? I think he'd toy with either of them.

    How about Shane if Shane doesn't fight Manny?

    I bet he does fight Bute or Ward in the future, but not in his next fight. I'm guessing Pirog is the move. That would be a fun night of boxing.

    Johnny, I don't feel Zbik is in Sergio's class, but maybe at this point fulfilling his mandatory obligations is best while he waits to see how the Floyd/Shane/Manny/Berto situation comes out.

    I don't think Sergio Martinez has alot left at the top, because of the kind of style he has. So he must get the big fights now, a fight with Miguel Cotto at 154 would be a great fight for him.

    And if he can make 168 comfortably which i believe he could, as i said a fight with Lucian Bute would be great aswell.

    Im no expert on Dmitry Pirog but isn't he a bit green at the moment ? let him make more of a name for himself first. He shouldn't be rushed in with Sergio Martinez.

    Never said he is...he is just a possible next opponent and he is definitely not in Martinez's class...the most important thing is that nobody wants a low profile opponent such as Zbik for Martinez now...personally I would like Sturm vs Martinez,but I guess the interest for such a fight wouldn't be big enough...
