    How is he too small , 2 inches in height , but he has a 4 inch reach advantage . The best mw vs the best smw

    Because supposedly he can still make 154 and that's his 'natural'/'best' weight

    i think this fight will happen. Maravilla is trying to go after the big bucks with mayweather/pac but he knows his clock is ticking with his age so he'll eventually make this happen if pac and mayweather pick somebody else (they will).

    i like the idea of them both meeting half way at 164. War Maravilla

    He is bigger, but he is not too big, Pavlik came in at like 178 against serg, and Paul Williams is realistically like 6'3. Mainly, Ward is too good.

    I really want to see Ward/Martinez! I hope Martinez beats McKlin and we have Ward/Martinez by June/July.

    Donaire is taller than Pac. Is Donaire too big for him?

    Martinez is massively hyped, especially when he was taken life and death by the last British C level fighter.

    I hope Martinez fights Ward. Win or lose he'd get way more respect than Pacman or Floyd. Here's a 30 something yr old junior middle who went to war twice with the man both Pacman and Floyd were avoiding and it's funny how Oscar and Margarito weren't too big for them yet Maravilla is. Even after Roach and the Mayweather's showed interest BEFORE the rematch. Sergio knocks PWillys block off in KO Of The Year. Now they're like Sergio what? Sergio who? Yea right, how the hell can they not know who produced the KO of the Year? Lol. Of course now he's too big. Sure he is. Win or lose he gets respect from everyone except the haters of course. To call Sergio a hype job then you might as well call Pacquiao and Floyd one too. Sergio ain't ducking no one especially if he's facing someone like Ward.

    Because Martinez can still make 154 and Ward is a decent sized SMW

    Would be a terrible mistake for Martinez to fight Ward imo. He has no chance.
