    Some fights just don't make a lot of sense, and this may be one of them. Martinez would have to boil down to nothing to make 150 and Pac. would have to drink a 12-pac of beer every day to make 150.

    And Margo left Pacquiao in the hospital. I'm not sure I understand your point.

    No, he said he can go down to 156 only.

    And why is Martinez trying to fight smaller fighters? He should go up and fight champions in higher weight classes like Manny.

    If Martinez gets some balls and comes in at the weight that Margo did, we'd have a fight no? But no, he can't shed a few more and apparently he can't go up a few more either. He's scared of a 144lber, when he could weigh 170 come fight night just like, yep Margarito.

    Maravilla will never be as great as Pacquaio.

    He wouldn't go up 4 pounds for a Pavlik rematch.

    What for? The public wasnt demanding another Pavlik fight, they wanted him to fight Paul Williams.

    This is absolutely the case. However Sergio would be a great matchup for Mayweather. Roger wants him to fight bigger guys and Floyd at one time considering doing that fight til the *******s showed us how much their willing to give to see their DADDY Money Mayweather fight! The Money is at 140lbs - 147lbs and that's probably where Pac and Money are going to stay!

    The money was there and Martinez is now calling out smaller fighters.

    I would love to see mayweather finally showing balls and moving up to take on sergio, but it doesnt seem like something he would do. he can make way more money fighting pac at 147 and look how much trouble that fight is to make. plus martinez would have a better chance then pac as well.

    STFO, Martinez has fought a guy that every one was avoiding in Williams and then move up in weight to fight the lineal read this, the lineal and Ring M Champion in Pavlik, no catch weights, all full fledge JMW and MW, we agreed that Pacquio is too small to fight Martinez, hey he was to small to fight Marg, the only difference is that Margo was damaged and slow like a tank, still he put a hurt on Pacquio, IMO the only way Pac will ever fight at 154 is if the guy has no arms.

    margarito was in the best shape of his life, remember? 154 division isnt special, top guys are cotto,k9,alavrez pac would beat em all. Only guys that beat him at 154 might be martinez and paul williams.
    I do agree that nobody should question martinez' balls he even took on a catchweight fight with paul williams at 157 and knocked him out cold. Martinez is great.
