    This is the most realistic money fight at the moment. Arum's actually mentioned it as a possibility, though he was probably full of it. Martinez is also at least kissing Sulaiman's ass constantly now to try to make the WBC to force that fight sooner rather than later.

    If Zbik wins he can make that fight, but he's basically screwed when it comes to money fights in his division. Without Lemieux, Kirkland, or Chavez, there aren't really any young names around middleweight that can draw.

    My thing is, Sergio will walk through Chavez, Kirkland, Zbik, Lemieux.. There is really no point in fighting these guys other than to add 4 wins to his nice record.

    He is getting older now, late 30's so he wants to fight a BIG name and get BIG money! I don't blame him if he doesn't want to move up 8 pounds and bang with the Big boys, but at the same time i think he could hang with them and beat the Super 6 guys except maybe Froch and Johnson. The other Guys would get worked.

    I wnat to see a rematch of Pavlik MArtinez at 168, but I doubt it would happen...

    there was nothing fake about mr perfect my friend....he bedded many desierable females in his time

    pavlik on the other hand....hes had sex with one woman in his life...a filthy, drunken, ohio pig....its only a matter of time before he comes home off a bender and shoots her in the stomach like spadafora did to his broad

    you wouldnt want to see what a curt hennig/pavlik sparring session woud have looked like...it would have been ugly....hennig was a technician....think bhop x at least 4.....l

    no doubt Martinez AND HBO were puking as Lemieux and Kirkland were upset. His options have been falling like dominoes. You're right, if Zbik wins, that's going to be the fight and it's a letdown on paper for everyone.
    If Chavez wins, he would be then due for that big fight. Arum will be ready for his payoff. But I think he wants that fight to be Cotto, even if it means waiting.

    Start playing the bad guy a little and verbally attack Floyd any chance he gets. If not that, go up and fight Hopkins at about 170.

    Fight Bhop or Mayweather but his best chance is to get BHop to go down to 168 and meet there do it soon as BHop is hot right now...... soon it wont be the same he has got to act soon.

    Mayweather will nevr fight Sergio at 160 or 154 neither will Pac.

    PW III or Authur Abraham in Germany. I know PW got starched in the rematch, but I still think he has the tools to give SM a hard time, that's why you haven't heard SM express an interest in a third fight. Abraham has lost some luster, but can still bomb and I think he'd take the fight which would do well in Germany. It would be an easy win for SM and good money. Other than those fights, I don't see anyone else (PBF, PAC or Cotto) wanting anything to do with SM. SM is a straight problem for any fighter south of 160. Maybe he could do the PAC thing and lure the Super 6 winner into a catch weight fight.

    Step by step . . . unify the middle weight titles first. Then go up to 168.

    It's useless to even mention Mayflower because the guy is on vacation and he won't take that fight.
