    Holyshitballs .... What more does a guy have to do . Martinez is fighting some of the so called at the time toughest fighters with his hands down one of them twice and he ain't good enough ? The dude beat looney ass cintron who I think is highly underated three times In one fight , the only other guy had to plaster his hands to do it . Martinez is kinda like Floyd the klitch's and now recently pac where they could literally and I mean literally knock someone head clean off In the ring and some would talk shit about the lack of bodywork . Hey just my opinion tho no one's really ever right or wrong in these places !

    His draw against Cintron was laughable. He was at least 4 pts up on him; plus he KO'd the man and the ref didn't call it. Ref seemed persuaded that it was a headbutt when it was a clear punch.

    He arguably won the first fight with PW and then destroyed him in the rematch
    He beat Pavlik soundly
    He beat up Sergei D.

    who are you going to put in front of him?

    He should fight someone like Ward or Bute.

    Sergio is one of a handful of TRUE champions in the sport. That has great value for me. I also think there are only 4-5 guys tops who deserve some kind of p4p recognition before we are just filling out slots because we have to fill out slots.

    Sergio is one of those 4-5 in my view.

    I don't think he has to move up to 168, its not like he's a real big middleweight, but it could turn out to be his best financial option to take on the real elite guys at 168: Ward and Froch. Bute should have to fight a few live bodies in his own division before he gets a shot at a guy like Martinez.

    Martinez needs to continue fighting and winning big time, the same guys who praise him so much are the same guys who discredit pac. Any way they can discredit pac they can Martinez but they dont.

    Its a matter of who prefers who really.

    I think Martinez is great and I hope everybody continues to think so because IMO if him and Pac get it on at 154, Pac wins.

    Thats just my 2 cent.
