    We all know Sergio called out both Mayweather and Pacquiao several times and offered to fight them at 154 (and even lower in Pacquiao's case). If these two would have had the balls to accept the challenge, how would these two fights have gone? :think

    I think Sergio could have (and probably would have) beaten both while at his absolute best.

    Nobody wants to weigh in on this? Where are all the pacturds and ********uals to defend their hero's honor? Sergio called them both out repeatedly and neither of them had **** to say... Probably because they both knew they'd be KTFO. :deal

    I won't be surprised if both sides belittle Martinez's prospects from his prime, based on the Cotto bout and other more recent showings from Sergio (when he clearly wasn't prime, let alone at his prime weight).

    But with his natural size advantage, being a true 154 pounder with athleticism and skills - I think that would be too much for Floyd and Manny at a true 154 pound contest (without some catch weight nonsense).

    I think Martinez at 154 in his prime beats both and potentially stops both. To good on his feet with angles and a solid puncher.

    Money would have dominated. For ****s sake, Sergioe was outboxed by Kermit Cintrone. Imagine what Money would do.

    Floyd went on vacation because he got scared of Margarito what more if it's Prime Sergio

    I always thought he was too big for either guy. In a real match up I'd give him the edge over both due to his combination of size, speed, boxing ability and power. But, P4P, I think he loses to both.

    at 154 Martinez owns Pac. too big. simply a mismatch. Pac will need to eat 10 sacks of rice just to bloat himself up. silly idea.

    at 154, Martinez gives Floyd a run for his money. wouldnt have happened still.
