    And beat Mayweather and beat Pacquiao, would the forum excuse the PAC-MAN loss and say Martinez is much bigger than him, but would not excuse the Money loss?

    Both Mayweather and Manny fight at 147. Both guys have fought at 154, but 147 is their home. Margarito was much bigger than Manny on fight night and that meant nothing.

    All 3, Pac, Floyd and Martinez once held the WBC LMW title and called themselves a light middleweight world champion, so even if Pacquiao and Floyd would be at a physical disadvantage, you can't call them a legit LMW conqueror AND too small for LMW at the same time. Martinez is not a physical fighter and DLH & Margo were bigger when Floyd and Pac fought them for the 154lbs belt - so Maravilla size isn't really the troublesome issue for *******s and Floydettes - it his his skill level.

    Martinez is like 170lbs on fightnight these days, with superb athletic ability.

    Honestly, if that man isn't a favorite to beat either Floyd or Pac, I don't know who is.
