    Take a look at Floyd after the fight , he was pretty busted up . Sergio would make it look a lot worse.

    But like I said Floyd is a 147 fighter.

    But there was no point in the fight where I would call Floyd "hurt"

    If Floyd believed he could beat Martinez the fight would have already taken place or would be lined up. Martinez would work Floyd.

    Based on what? Floyd probably believes he could beat Malignaggi...that fight has not been made...is he avoiding him?

    Stop it 5...

    Just my opinion but Mayweather looked bigger than Cotto at 154. He's even taller and has a longer reach, if he's too small for 154 then so is Cotto.

    Maybe its just me, but I like fighters at 154 and up to be around 5 10 , Cotto looks heavy not big at 154 if that makes sense.

    :lol::patsch Yea because Paulie would generate so much money and do so much for his legacy.

    Martinez is regarded as a top 10 p4p fighter by almost every credible boxing media outlet. Not only that, he has a MUCH bigger frame than Floyd. A Martinez-Floyd fight would generate a ****-TON of money and if Floyd beats him it would shoot his legacy through the roof. Martinez has been calling him out for a while now. If Floyd thought he could win, it would have been done by now. **** off with the Paulie bull****.

    Martinez is a big MW comes fight night... why do you think floyd suggest 150 lbs. cactweight for a 154 fight?

    At 154 Martinez would **** floyd inside the ring.

    Legacy maybe? Generate Money? really Martinez? Martinez with what fan base? if your talking about selling the fight, there are more marketable fighters out there...you were talking about FLOYD'S BELIEF IN HIS CHANCES TO WIN FIGHT AS A REASON FOR HOLDING UP THE POSSIBILITY OF A CLASH...NOT MONEY OR LEGACY in your original statement...your contricting yourself.

    1-2 Then Roll Out...:deal

    :good:good

    but to correct you. Floyd is from the North Congo Tribes, (his ancestors)

    so 'back to the Congos'

    As noted above, none of those guys want him and the only reason he moved to 160 in the first place is because despite holding a belt at junior middle he couldn't get fights at all. Cotto and Angulo have repeatedly turned that fight down, Wolfe thinks Kirkland isn't ready, and Golden Boy is not letting Alvarez anywhere near Martinez.
