Martinez Trainer: "Sergio is a blown up WW"

People tend to forget that fight was at a catchweight of 151...

 

Diego “ Chico ” Corrales will move up to the welterweight division to face former welterweight title challenger Joshua Clottey. This is a tough assignment for Corrales as he is not only skipping the 140 lb. weight class, but he is fighting a big, strong, fighter who gave WBO kingpin, Antonio Margarito, all he could handle. Be sure to tune in on April 7 to see how this fight turns out.

 

Joshua Clottey looked tremendous, Diego “Chico” Corrales was as courageous as ever in their one-sided yet entertaining 10-rounder on Showtime.
Moving up to welterweight clearly was a step too far for the former junior lightweight and lightweight champion although the added weight helped Corrales to absorb Clottey’s blows, of which there were many

negative it was a WW fight

non title fights are not extreme at the weigh in

this is not uncommon

 

Martinez isn't tiny at 160, he'd be undersized at 168 but he wouldn't be hilariously small. He knows he'd get outclassed by someone there though, better to keep calling out Floyd and Pac and ducking the real competition.

 

Wow facts hurt !

 

Roy Jones beat Virgill in a LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT fight

Jones official weigh in was 177 Hill 176 I believe


again this was a light HW fight !!

these are not catchweight fights !!!

 

Are you sure, it is listed as a 149 lb catchweight fight in Boxrec.

149= NOT ww

 

Clottey fought corrales at WW
his in ring weight was 170

its not good practive but he did it:yep

 

Yes Im sure the fight was WW as listed and as announced again Jones did this as did many others in NON title fights !


I think Cotto had a few lightweight fights at 137 have to check that :huh

as far as boxrec goes they weighted in just over 147 but catchweight wasnt mentioned wheres it say that ?

 

Most WW's weight 176lbs after 4 weeks of training camp like Sergio. Sound logic. Froch doesn't even walk around that heavy.

 

Martinez and his people are really making him out to be a clown.

Just shut up and move up to attain greatness like every fighter before you. Instead he is squandering his fame making these crap statements.

 

He is more natural at 154 than 160. He certainly is not as big as guys like Hopkins, Pavlik, Taylor.
