    Martinez (at 160) would add MUCH more to his legacy than Pacqauio would :yep

    Of course we'd get a million fillipinos claiming he ducked Pac to fight the MW Champion of the world.

    Not really.

    As much as I like Martinez, he's a very flawed fighter. He has become outrageously overrated.

    :lol::lol::rofl:rofl:patsch

    like our friend emmanuel

    I see Sexy Sergio as someone with a stylistic advantage over Floyd, slick southpaw. If Floyd could overcome that, I consider it an amazing feat. Not only that but Sexy Sergio is much bigger

    If PAC beats Floyd then he'd be comfortably be top 20 ATG. If Floyd beats PAC, he's be top 25 ATG.

    He's just honestly a top-30.

    A win over Floyd would boost him about 5 or 6 places or so.

    Not top-10.

    Same goes with Floyd.

    If they should break top-10, then they should have a win over both Sergio and Andre Ward. That's it.

    Ok, so you expect both Manny and Floyd , two fighters who probaly could still fight at Super Lightweight, to fight a Super Middle Weight:patsch

    Floyd beating Andre Ward? How about just dominating 147 and/or 154 with a reign of terror and wreaking havoc upon the division/s

    29 year old 180lb Andre Ward vs 35 year old 150lb Floyd Mayweather?

    I do get it. Trust me.

    You don't think that Pacqauio, Martinez and two more wins over legit champs/contenders is equal to an imaginary Ward fight?

    In hindsight, maybe I should've just said Sergio and 2 more wins over opponents of the same caliber.

    However, when you scan the field at 147-160, there's no one else that comes close to him. (Hence I mentioned ward who is considered the best at his weight, and literally beating them is one hell of an achievement)
