    sergio's bonkers, he should stay the **** away from ward. he's small for a middleweight so fighting a young, intelligent, strong champ from SMW is not being called for and not a smart move. Floyd is a winnable fight, Ward is not, both crazy though considering the weights.

    both are crazy, but the only fight that would prove himself is ward not floyd. Theres nothing great about a big guy beating on a little guy, I could say the same for floyd or pac to stay the **** away from martinez because they're too small.

    I would say Floyd and Martinez are much closer in natural weight than Martinez and Ward.

    Martinez is a natural 154 pounder fighting at 160, Floyd is now a full blown WW....Ward is a legit, good sized SMW who will end up at LHW in a few years.

    Martinez goes for Ward. That fight with Floyd would never happen.

    Sergio is too small to fight at 168 and he's too big to fight at 150 so he should keep fighting at 160 by unifying the World Championsh Belts, and stop calling out smaller fighters to fight him.

    Ward won the Gold Medal at 178, so he definitely isn't small.

    Sergio-Ward would be a better fight than Sergio fighting one division lower than his current weight.

    Hats off to Sergio if he takes on Ward.

    I remember in his debut, Ward's handlers said the plan was for Ward to start at SMW and actually work his way DOWN to middleweight after a few fights as his conditioning improves. Obviously it never happened because they saw the landscape at SMW was better, but it does show that they believed Ward could be a middleweight if he wanted.

    How is Floyd a winnable fight? What does Floyd do wrong that SErgio can capitalize on? Can't you say that WArd is a winnable fight too?

    Oh I see because you realized that Sergio is a BIG guy and the only way to beat a skillful fighter like Floyd is with a size advantage but against Ward, he wont be the bigger guy and will have to rely on skill, which Ward has over him in spades.
