I watched a few clips of Martinez on IG and he looks better than you'd think. He's moving around ok & his punches are sharp. Shut up & take my money.

Maybe there should be a disabled boxing league for guys like Martinez. Or a legends circuit like in tennis, where they don't take it too serious.
Emmanuel Augustus is worth a mention, also Micky Ward while i'm at it.
Who actually trained ali then? Was it Dave Jacobs & Janks that trained srl?
I thought he looked as good as ever until he took that right hand from hell. This is just the way it goes at the top level. Not everyone can be Floyd.
No, I don't think he's in any trouble at all. I expect him to dispose of Alvarez with relative ease.
Thanks, ill just catch the train & get general admin. Hopefully i make it home in one piece.
Where is this fight & is there still tix left?
Usually skinny guys can bang if they have good technique. Steward made sure hearns fully extended his punches.
No he got caught with a left hook in the middle of an exchange.
Hearns could have been the goat if he was a smidge more cautious.
Shavers & Foreman might sort him out and pull a Rahman.
Vince Phillips.
Give Thurman a break. He beat Porter & Garcia & took a well earned spiritual break in the mountains of Nepal.
