    All that semen has finally corroded your brain beyond repair. You didn't even get what my link showed you. :patsch

    The fact is, with every OTHER fighter at 154 that Martinez is a possible match for, he has shown no interest in actually fighting them at 154. If he can't do it with these other fighters, then how in the **** can he make the weight with Mayweather?

    And b4 your ****** ass says, " but, but.....he'd be willing to kill himself for the payday with Mayweather". He'd make just as much fighting Canelo, or would've made close to as much with Cotto(e). Mayweather regularly pays his opponents 2-5 mill, Martinez would be no different.

    So he's either as stupid as you, or he's never been serious about making the weight and is simply using the Mayweather name for exposure. (As most do)

    Now go stare at Sergio Martinez **** picks, you man-lover.

    1. He was making him first run for congress in april or may and needed a fight done asap to move on to this, no dicking around
    2. Clottey Cotto was a 50/50 fight, a lot of people had him beating Cotto, including FMJ. Fighting a top 5 welter 4 months after Cotto is not bad, compare Floyd's output any time in the past 5 years.

    But anyway, lets say Pac is totally to blame for the fight falling through in spring 2010. Where was Floyd the next couple of years? Why did the goalposts keep changing? Within months 7 days was not enough, and eventually fixed fee offers get thrown out lol.

    I dunno, what's your guess why Berto and Peterson asked their cleaner opponents to test?

    A lot of those guys never tested themselves, and never really pressed the issue AFAIK: Ward, Martinez, Bradley.

    Donaire asked Rigo cause:

    1. Rigo hired the most notorious drug peddler around
    2. To make himself look clean after associating with Conte longer than anyone in boxing
    3. Out of the boxing ring he's pretty much an emo *****

    A win against Martinez under those circumstances would definitely silence any and all haters and set him as one of the best. A win over Martinez at 160 is much better then any win over Manny would have been due to the style and size match up. On fight night Martinez would have 20-25 lbs on Mayweather to go along with hand speed that is right up there with Mayweather and possibly faster foot speed. Even at his age, Martinez can easily move around the ring and box all 12 rounds, something we haven't seen from Floyd since a good chunk of the Marquez fight.

    Floyd is a fraud and a pussay. Nothing new. At least Oscar, who started at superfeatherweight like Floyd, challenged Hopkins when Hopkins was a killer. Hell,,even with a,catchweight, but Oscar still went up and had the cojones. Duran went up. Sweet Pea. Armstrong. Walker. Floyd looks skillful against no hopers,,but put someone worth a damn like they did with Castillo hey don't look so good. Fight Sergio you *****. Its a win-win for Floyd. He's a ****ing mirage and charlatan. He's good, but not anywhere near great like he thinks he is.

    This.

    Sergio came out a week or two ago and said himself that a Mayweather fight is no longer possible due to being contracted to two separate networks.

    So, technically, Sergio came out and said "not possible" first ;)

    I agree with everything except:

    1) I don't think Berto usage was "accidental"

    2) Donaire has got to start asking his opponents at some point. No different than Mayweather starting with Pacquiao/Mosley in '10 and the random requests by Bradley for Provodnikov. I don't think it has anything to do with fear, which I sort of think you may have implied. Perhaps he has heard negative or shady things regarding Rigo or his team. Either way, I'm glad for it.

    I agree with the Donaire thing actually. I'm glad he's making his opponents take the tests now and I don't care when he decides to start doing it. I was just comparing it to Mayweather asking Pac to take the tests for the first time.

    and I don't blame you for thinking Berto is on roids. It's easy to point the finger at his meathead self :yep
    I just don't think if he was juicing, that he'd do it with such a crappy substance with that little amount. I could be wrong though of course. The game is so dirty nowadays

    Mayweather knows Da Sex Martinez has a 50/50 chance of knocking him out. Sad thing is if Mayweather beats Martinez and wins the MIDDLEWEIGHT championship there would be no doubt that he's one of the all-time greats. But Mayweather obviously puts money and safety before legacy.

    OK great. Once you lay it out like that' it's clearly become a fad since 2010. You'll see some juicers asking for testing, some guys not serious, doing it for appearances, and at least one guy doing it out of insecurity.

    Regarding Memo and Rigo, Donaire has no way of knowing whether they work together, it's not like such contracts are made public. You'd know for sure if you tail Rigo 24/7, which I wouldn't put past the Donaires. But he has strong suspicions and circumstantial evidence, which we've seen go a very long way.

    Floyd is saying the fight won't happen at 160 which is understandable but if Martinez is willing to come down to 154 I think it could still happen once Martinez's HBO contract runs out.
