Lets get this going incase Martinez beats Dzinzuruk, even blows him out early like he did Williams. So there are no excuses with all these idiots saying he was all hype, glass chin etc etc How goo a win is this for Martinez
Very good win, but won't get as much credit as his wins over Williams and Pavlik seeing as how Dzinziruk isn't really a big name..
It really doesnt matter because martinez doesnt get credit. In the last three years no one has taken on better competition than Martinez. Next in line would be Bradley and then Marquez. PAC is consistently cherry picking and afraid to fight good fighters or Arum is protecting him. Case in point Donaire has two good wins after this last one he is supposed to jump Martinez in the rankings. Hell No that is the most nonsense that I have ever heard. Martinez fought a bigger man ranked higher on the P4P and with no advantages except being a defensive fighter. Donaire had all of the advantages versus Montiel but we overlook that and try to degrade Martinez. Why the hell was he voted fighter of the year to be leap frogged by Donaire. Lord how soon do we forget. The P4P #1 IMO is Sergio Martinez.
martinez will easily win this. and then all the esbers will call dzin a hypejob who fought noone. but overall a decent win for martinez
A solid win against a solid opponent. But, it's an expected win against a Euro, so don't expect him to get too much support.
Martinez: 2008 David Torivio W, Archak TerMelikseitan W, Alex Bunema W 2009 Kermit Cintron D, Paul Williams L 2010 Kelly Pavlik W, Paul Williams W Pacquiao: 2008 JMM W, Juan Diaz W, ODLH W 2009 Ricky Hatton W, Miguel Cotto W 2010 Joshua Clottey W Antonio Margarito W Pacquiao has fought better opposition over the past 3 years, Carl Froch has aswell. :good
I think that SDs opposition is better than he gets credit and maybe Martinez opposition is not as good as he gets credit. Nothing in either mans records suggestes that he is a cut above the other imo. SD holds wins over some solid fighters: Dawson, Julio, Konecny, Lujan, and Santos who hadnt lost in 6 years and went on to regain a title. Martinez holds wins over Pavlik, Williams, arguably Cintron... Both fighter have looked very good lately and have good skillsets, and I think both guys travel well. that would be a concern with most European fighter fighting in the US, but SD showed that he can perform outside his hometown in his last fight, and obviously SM travels well.
