    Martinez will destroy him

    And this fight definitely wont help Martinez in becoming best P4P fighter. Disappointing fight if this is true

    I agree pirog/geale/sturm one of these 3 should be his next opponent.

    No point in this fight for Martinez right now he needs to be chasing the superfights.

    Either Martinez's team are a bunch of idiots and/or di Bella is not earning his pay...

    hmm hbo will need a good undercard for this fight, why not gaele vs pirog as a double header then the winners face off, they need to do something like that with the 160 division, I have the feeling this division has great potential but nobody is fighting each other.

    Agreed. Maybe he should move down to 154 and try to fight some guys there, but no one seems to want any part of him.
