    People are making too much of the Murray fight.

    Murray was a top 10 fighter and Martinez was having his first fight back from injury and broke his hand in the fight.

    I think Martinez has been a bit overrated really, did not look good against either Macklin or Barker, and beat a really overhyped Chavez jr (who's dumb enough to be using cannabis in the build up to his fights)
    Given that both men have been getting hit more and more of late, and that Mikkel seems to have the better punch resistance, I would probably side with th Viking Warrior, although probably would be at a catchweight

    Martinez should jump all over that.

    I think he easily wrecks Kessler at 160.
     
  4. Everybody wants Martinez now, if you know boxing, you know why

    if you looked at my comment it said 'in an ideal world' ,, im a fan thats how id want his career to end,, i never said the fight would happen or that would happen if they did fight

    think GGG promoter is doin a good job,, fight absolutly nobody and claim to be the most feared man on the planet

    least martinez has tuck out 4 of the current 10,, how many has GGG fought?? thats right zero
    lets see how he does against macklin before we clain him as the greatest 160 lber in the world (personally i think he stops him so this isnt a hate post about GGG, jus his fans who think hed knock out martinez and ward on the same night)

  9. Martinez just took a beating off Murray, but Kessler looks very thin at 168 already so I doubt he could get to 160 and be effective

    I really doubt Kessler can make 160 safely. Keyword is "safely". It would be a good fight on paper though. And to top it off, I doubt Kessler will be picky with his shots ala Barker and Murray, Kessler style plays into Martinez style.

    This^ Can Kessler even make the ****ing weight? Hasn't he spent pretty much his entire career at 168? Killing himself to get to 160 might actually give the past-it Martinez a chance of winning.
