I also believe Martinez is better at 154. If PW rematches him at 154 for his belt the fight may even be better.
After tonight his phone will be ringing off the hook. But I'd say 154lbs would be his best call. (Leave 160lbs alone)
Rematch Martinez at 154 for Sergio's title. Note to George Peterson and Dan Goosen: Shut your loud ****ing mouths, and keep your boy the hell away from Kelly Pavlik.
martinez is better off targeting sturm! as far as PW he prob should stay anywhere from 147-154 4 awhile
Dunno, maybe back to 154, but he better stay right the **** away from Kelly Pavlik. Honestly, I think a return bout here would be the best course, if PW is up to it. Like I said in another thread, Sergio didn't get robbed, but he sure got Malignaggi'd by that French judge...
He should rematch Martinez however it's unlikely it happens. I suspect that he'll try to entice some of the names at 47; perhaps the Mosley/Berto winner. I can also see him making another run at Pavlik. Wherever he goes, I suspect it will be for big money.
Stylistically Sergio is a tougher fight than Williams. PW would camp out in front of Kelly and get his ass handed to him in 5 rounds, because both PW and his trainer are dumber than a box of rocks. Sergio's speed and movement would give KP fits for quite a few rounds, but I think Pav would catch him often enough to slow him down and catch up to him in 10-11 rounds. Remember, at 160 just making it to the 10th against Pav would be a major accomplishment. No one ever has.
Someone mentioned this fight took something out of both of them. Will it really take a toll on both fighters?
