Sergio's decline... When/how did it start?

12th round vs Chavez Jr?

 

It was apparent in the murray fight. He had no angles and didnt have pop anymore.

 

yeah, i know, fella. floyd ruined his reputation because he didn't fight bermane stiverne and wladmir klitchko...yeah. but i have a question: which part of a DF barrio does a miserable ****** like you come from?

 

He looked great vs sluggish come forward Chavez.

He then fought Murray on a rain slicked canvas. With his style, he was bound to tear and twist and torque them old joints.

Lets be thankful he was fighting GGG last night.

He woulda been taken out on a stretcher with the 1 punch landed.:shock::shock::shock::shock:

 

Had to be during the Chavez fight it's hard to be that athletic as you age and at 39 with 2 knee surgeries and a year lay off ,I mean had he cherry picked he could have extended his career ..But Sergio wasn't It that type of fighter .

 

X2 think it was that fight also cus the murrey fight he wasnt as moblie as we are used to seeing him pre chavez jr

 

He looked good against Chavez Jr.

 

lol, ydksab

 

Euro tour? Who was Martinez suppose to be fighting at MW? GGG and Pirog? Wouldnt those count as a Euro tour too?

Murray did win the fight in the eyes of many but there is a reason he had surgery after that fight, he was hurt fighting Murray!

I guess you didn't notice those things.

 

I think DiBella also mentioned that he broke or hurt his hand in the Barker fight. There is YT video on it. His injuries were his downfall, specifically the knee.

 

And his age

 

Boxing is a physical game. It just so happens that a weakened part will weaken the boxer's performance.

 

Mostly this.

 

His 12th rd KD during the Chavez fight. He fell down badly that his knee twisted.

I think that was it.

 

He was having issues with the likes of Macklin and Barker, that's when it started. The Chavez fight really took a lot from him, and it has gone completely downhill ever since.
