    yes he does

    but it lessens for every pound under 154 if he's grimy enough to issue a catchweight

    Mayweather might be a **** at times, but he deserves respect. Martinez fight (which is a fantastic one) or not.

    fight will be at 151, or close to that. serg said on twitter he was thinking about moving down to 154, probably in november
     
  6. Pacquiao fought at 150 catchweight for a belt. Hopefully Mayweather will get a pass if he fights at a catchweight. But I see it coming already.

    Even at a catchweight this fight is brilliant. 154 would be perfect though.

    Floyd is a much better fighter and boxer than emmanuel, so we expect more out of Floyd

    I don't think Martinez even still has a 154 belt? at least that part won't be wrong if they do catchweight it up
     
  9. So Martinez will fight in November again? :yikes

    still have to see it to believe it but doubt there is a catch weight and 154 is not a catch weight

    If you're only giving Mayweather respect as a fighter, then you'd be well over a decade late.

    nope, I can't be angry at anyone for taking a fight and beating Martinez at 154

    It's not like anyone is making him go down to 154. He's opening his own mouth, parading around for months about how he can make 154, and begging for fights at that class.

    Void is a well known woman beater, cheats the handicapped from their parking places, like like Hell! How can I respect him?
