    Martinez smarter fighter than manny imo. manny throws the better combos and is more athletically blessed though.

    Hmm. . .Sexy Sergio is pretty athletic himself, having been a cyclist and a soccer player. Do agree with you on the "landing better combos" part though.


    Sergio relies too much on single shots (like the lead left) or a basic 1-2. He has a good right hook but usually only throws it as a single shot rather than as a 1-2-3.


    Manny throws 5-7 punch combos regularly and his volume and seemingly endless energy are in my opinion his major strengths. Not to mention speed of course.

    the problem with a possible martinez-pacquiao fight is the weight.

    the problem with a possible martinez-mayweather fight is floyd got no balls.

    PBF would NEVER EVER take this fight! Way too dangerous for him. Martinez is just as fast as he is, and he is bigger and hits harder.

    I think Floyd win UD. All Martinez has over Floyd is size and strength. Speed , skill endurance all goes to little Floyd.

    I do hope Floyd doesn't take that fight though cos after it he would be a shell of his former self.

    At 154lbs Martinez would be too much for Mayweather i think he would stop him in around 8 very painful rounds for Floyd.

    Wow I thought almost everyone here thought martinez beats floyd up at 154, southpaw,taller,weighsmuch more on fightnight, very long arms, great jab, good counterpunching skills, good movement. And floyd probably is better of at 147 anyway, yet the common thought seems to be floyd ud even here, didnt expect that.
    I really believe at 160 and below nobody clearly beats martinez.

    I like Martinez. Not at equal size, but I like Martinez. He'd hurt Floyd consistently. Decision or stoppage. Whichever took place that many times out of whatever. It would be a W either way.

    Ha! This is the guy that felt the world lifting off his shoulders because he got Ricky Hatton off of him.

    First and foremost may has no balls to take this fight.

    He would get brutalised in there and would be sniffing the canvas by the end of the night.

    Was that in the 9th round when he was dancing around with a giant smile on his face visibly laughing at Merchant and Lampley because Hatton was just running into his jab?

    floyd wins by using his legs and pot shoting
