Why do people say that Sergio Martinez is a skilled fighter? He's not!

    If he fought a skilled boxer theres no way he could win. This dude fights with his hands down for 12 rounds. He has no defense. And did you see what Pwill did to him in clinches? Lol No inside game. He reminds me of Khan. If you adjust to his speed its a rap for him.

    And this is off topic but the second Williams fight was a flooke. Not the punch. The k.0.

    So does Floyd. So did RJJ. Even Ali in many of his fights.

    It worked pretty well for those guys.

    Martinez is an old man at this point. It takes a LOT of energy to keep your hands up. (Have you ever boxed?) If he can get away with keeping them low, then that's the smart way to go.

    Doesn't it take skill to land accurate shots on an opponent? He does it quite often. How does that happen? Luck, you suppose?

    Being skilled and being orthodox and predictable are different things. Martinez is skilled

    Is this thread for real? I mean, is Manu Ginobli a skilled basketball player?

    After the 15th of September everyone will be calling Sergio a fluke.

    An unskilled fighter who fights with his hands down would get KTFO.
