    Here's what you all fail to realize, Martinez was the backup plan the whole time. He was in camp training to fight Williams in case Pavlik pulled out of the fight. Williams was actually at more of a disadvantage. He was training to fight Pavlik and had to switch up. Martinez had a full training camp and was training for Williams the whole time.

    Martinez was scheduled to take a tuneup in December, so he was in training. Williams was in training to fight Pavlik.

    So they both had short time to prepare for each other's styles.

    At 154 Martinez will beat Williams.
    Also as a note. I think Pavlik would have beat Williams. Styles make fights. Pavlik has issues with fleety fighters. Williams is a come get you guy.

    At 160 and with time to prepare.
    Close call on Marinez Williams 2.

    Both was training for a 3 weeks notice. And as far as robbery is concern? I swear to god whoever thinks Martinez was robbed in the Williams fight is more ******ed then "pavlik is champ" chatter.

    "@ 154 martinez will beat williams"

    do you people know martinez ring weight during fight night was 168? martinez may be better at 160 then he is at 154

    Both took the fight on short notice. I had Martinez winning by 1-2 rounds.

    I mean it was a close fight that literally could have went either way.... and of course there are people who hate williams so they are going to say its a robbery... they really need a rematch to settle it
