How will this affect the fight? DiBella is doing something wrong here by taking Martinez to Texas, a cesspool of corruption and inanity.
Clearly Martinez has no better options in his division, so he might as well accept. A dumb move in my opinion but surely he's getting some good money for it.
I really dont know wtf Dibella is thinking. Hope hes not being blinded by $$$ here thats already on the table as opposed to having to go out and fight to get other fights going. There is no reason at all Lou shouldnt be doing everything in his power to persue Canelo, Cotto, or Mayweather.
All smaller or semi-retired (in floyd's case) opponents that he has little to no chance acquiring. Dibella is being realistic.
a smaller ring wont change anything... martinez fought close to chavez jr the entire fight.. he moved but didnt run from jr. junior was at firing range a lot of times and didnt pull the trigger because he is too slow compared to martinez.. the only hope chavez has is that martinez gets tired :hat
