If Sergio Martinez vs Floyd Mayweather at 154

At 154 I think its possible. Martinez is larger, and a fast, skilled southpaw that can fight hard for 12 rounds. I could see either fighter winning but would possibly favor Martinez.
Pound for pound it goes to Mayweather most likely.

 

Sergio is good but he is the kind of fighter who is good when a guy gives him openings, but Floyd would outbox him and win a boring fight.

 

It shows more Williams fighting the wrong fight more than Martinez being great like others have said. Martinez is quick and gutsy, but you cannot make that much more out of it. He has a lot of experiece also.

 

One fight makes Martinez able to beat Mayweather? What would have happened had Quintana signed to fight Floyd after beating Williams the first time? Would the odds have been even? Martinez put up a good fight, but to think he would even come close to the same fight is just imagination. Floyd would outbox him. The only question I have is would Martinez be too strong at 154 for Floyd, but other than that Floyd would win.

 

More interesting fight then pac vs may. May vs mos still the mst intriguing match though.

 

Hmm. . .JMM's fame rests mostly on two unsuccessful fights. Sometimes it's awesome performances in a losing cause that are your biggest highlights.

 

It's funny you should mention that, before, and keep in mind I'm saying BEFORE the Cotto/Pacquiao fight, I was going to make a post asking which would pose a bigger threat to Floyd: An ATG light welterweight champion coming up to fight Floyd or Floyd going back for a second 154-pound fight with a really good 154-pound champion like Martinez, larger but still quick and slick. ...But that was before the Cotto/Pacquiao fight, once again.

 

Coming from the guy who's analysis stems from 'Sergio is faster and will win because he has more heart'.

 

ive been saying paul williams is overrated for the last 6 months. still sticking on my oppinion that pac qould beat PW hands down

 

Thats assuming he would take the shots PW did which he wouldnt:hey

 

What does Martinez do better than Floyd? NOTHING - Thread Closed!!

 

Williams was the aggressor in this fight and was getting caught lunging in. If floyd fought Martinez, Martinez would have to be the aggressor hence it would be a totally different fight.

 

Sergio's a southpaw, let's not forget Floyd's history against lefties. He would be in the pocket most of the night.

 

That you in that avatar? Nice Tatt if so
