    Hey boo, are you going to cite Martinez's weight tonight (165) as further evidence that Martinez is a "big middleweight"? I always love those posts.

    no barker strategy was to BOX back to basics if you will, which he did amazingly well...

    Sergio is a joke, maybe at 154 he is legit, but he isn't **** at 160, only trying to fight small guys at 160, but ducking B-hop at 170. A ****ing joke. De La Hoya moved up, Floyd moved up, B-Hop moved up, Sergio isn't ****. I'm sick of the hype for this buster.

    Pirog and co should have stormed the ring on his ***** ass.

    He doesn't have to, Mayweather can string his punches a lot better than Barker. When Barker threw in combinations he was successful.

    Martinez just way to good for Barker even with an off night.

    Similar to Pac Clottey, one guy was trying to fight and the other guy was doing his best to not prevent a fight. 99% of Barkers energy went to defense, a pretty good defense, and he was still knocked out.

    Good win for Sergio

    During the interview, Merchant mentioned that someone had challenged Martinez but at 170 but Sergio said it was too much weight for him.Did anyone catch who Merchant was talking about.
