    Just a horrible post. You just went full skip bayless mode here. Speaking in generalities. You said a lot without actually saying anything.

    20 years from now Martinez KO will still be on Boxing highlight reels, but the majority if not all of Mayweather's borefests will be committed to the dustbin of history.

    Bona fide ATG's don't get out-boxed in their prime by Carlos Quintana.

    Read the title again, it mentioned Martinez-Williams, nowhere was Mayweather mentioned. Now, why you're busy worryng about Mayweather, the man is in Dubai enjoying himself.

    20 years from now every trainer in boxing will be reviewing Mayweather tapes with their pupil Mayweather, trying to instill in them the fundamentals of the game, something Mayweather embodied throughout his career.

    Paul Williams would have beat Floyd at 147. But since he was also a Haymon fighter the duck almost went un noticed.

    What a KO! Martinez had wrote it on his notebook before hand and that makes it even greater. Martinez had relatively short prime in a limelight but he was truly special. What a fighter.

    Great performance from Sergio I do think Paul was slipping a bit. He struggled with Lara no disgrace really but then went the distance with Isida who is one strange fighter.
