    I agree that could happen too. But, for all his limitations, Sturm has at least been hard to stop.

    Depends on which Giardello shows up. :think

    Think I might favor Martinez at his best.

    Carter went 3-2, getting stopped once, in 1963. Aside from that, I continually find him to be overrated.

    Martinez UD Giardello
    Sturm UD Carter
    Tiger UD Williams

    :goodThis says it all, except, as Clinton said, Carter may have ko'ed Sturm..after all he was ko'ed by lesser men.
    Giardello outclasses Martinez and Tiger crushes Williams.

    Surely you don't think Martinez stops him! I demand an explanation as to why you think that.

    In 2010, Martinez beat the **** out of Williams and Pavlik who were #2 and #1 rated in 2009.

    Still, it was the pick that most troubled me to make.
