    This is a logical fight given Sturm's popularity and sponsors in Germany and Hassan N'Dam and Golovkin being tied up for a showdown. No matter if it's Sturm in the US or Martinez in Germany, it can be a very popular fight and a unification on a very high level. Who wins between the two?

    Sturm is underrated, but he isn't on Maravilla's level.
    I expect him to last the distance, maybe by picking himself up from the canvas once or twice down the road but Martinez wins a wide UD.

    I'll say Martinez by KO or Sturm by points (if the fight is in Germany). No way Sturm is going to lose on points in Germany.

    If an aging Javier Castillo was able to connect a haymaker I don't see why Martinez can't. . . Martinez by stoppage :D

    I just looked it up. Sturm is four years younger. I'm surprised, it seems like he's been around forever. Martinez, but I wouldn't say knockout or points. I'd rather see Sturm/Dzinziruk, as I think it'd be more competitive. Or Sturm/Wright.

    sturm who went life and death with club fighter randy griffin and who was knocked out by 38 year old junior middleweight javier castellijo.....sturm who made a defense against 1 of only 3 middleweights in the world who are from japan (only 14 fights to boot)
    sturm is a joke that will get massacared if he ever were to man up and fight a guy like martinez

    Sturm is better then some people make him. But nevertheless i see Martinez winning a close decision.

    a like your patrism but Martinez would bring Waayyyyyyyy to much for Strum and his jab to handle, they said Dzinziruk would give Maravilla fits with his jab & look what happened.
