I know that Floyd still has to fight Shane Mosley but i'm wondering what you guys think about a move up in weight (ether 54 or 60) for a matchup with Martinez? ... Martinez is not a big middleweight like Pavlik is ... he's not that huge of a puncher - yet he matches up equally in speed and ability.
Martinez is tall with long arms. An outstanding boxer and a southpaw. He could be Mayweather's greatest chalenge out there right now. Yes this includs Pacquiao, Williams and Mosley.
Floyd would never fight him. If they did fight, Martinez would beat him 9-3 or maybe a late stoppage.
If Mayweather goes up to fight Martinez, and beats him, people will say he cherrypicked his opponent.
I disagree, I'd give Mayweather a lot of credit and I am a huge critic of him. I'm impressed he even agreed to fight Mosley, I mean he was talking about fighting Paulie M. or Matthew Hatton FFS.
Just read an article that Floyd will look to move up to fight Martinez at middleweight or junior middleweight ...
