    After the meaningless fight against Dzinziruk, and all the cheap talk about how he wants big fights, Sergio Martinez has exposed himself as just another ducker - no different from Floyd Mayweather.

    He could have sought to unify the MW titles by fighting the undefeated champion Dmitry Pirog or the WBA champ Felix Sturm, but instead he cherrypicked a guy named Barker, whoever the hell he is.

    Keep cherrypicking, Sergio! And guys, please stop putting this fraud in your p4p top 5 lists because he got off one lucky punch on Paul Williams.

    There isnt enough reward for these fights. I would like to see SM in there with Pirog, but the network will not pick up the fight.:bart

    Why didn't Pacquiao take on the undefeated Berto and unify the welterweight division instead of Shitty Shane Mosley

    Serg isn't ducking anyone. Who has Pirog beaten? We need to see him in a real fight. Nobody knows him. The boxing term "duck" cannot be applied in this case.

    Pirog or Sturm would have been so much better fight than Barker - hard to see anyone argue with that.

    Still great opportunity for Barker (does anyone know who he´s going to fight before Sergio?).

    Because Berto seemed like a legit opponent, look forward to Berto vs Pac and Fredie blabbing about what a threat Berto will be and how shity the camp is going....:deal AT A 142 CATCH for the middle weight wbc kryptonite title.

    :rofl I could imagine that now.
    Roach: Berto is a powerful and fast opponent. I think he's the fastest and most powerful guy Manny will ever face :nut

    Ariza: Manny's not taking the camp seriously. I think he may lose if he doesn't pick it up

    I don't think there's as much as a demand for this fight as you think. the hardcores would love this fight, I think it'd be great and aside from maybe Golovkin and Sturm the most difficult opponent at MW but the casual fan doesn't know these guys and it's not big money so it ain't gonna happen, but Barker is a terrible option, he's less known than Pirog even, ridiculous fight.

    he's a ******* and referenced Floyd as a ducker, so I had to do it.
    To be honest I expected a response like this and almost didn't post it
