Martinez v Lee or Zbik

Are you on crack or something? Even on Paddy's day, this fight would never sell out MSG!

****, there was what, 4,000 people for Martinez-Williams 2 in Atlantic City?

Sergio wants BIG FIGHTS for the rest of his career, not losing time with a German mandatory or a green prospect!

Cotto is fighting Margarito, Floyd is getting raped in prison or something and Manny will probably fight Mosley.

Next for Maravilla is Bute at 168 (or maybe a catchweight of 166). You heard it here!

 

Lee is top 10 MW @ WBC, isn't he? Sure, maybe he doesn't deserve to be in the championship picture. But are you honestly gonna tell me Lemieux won't win convincingly over Rubio to get the title shot? He's a WBC International title holder, and his next one's indeed an eliminator. :hey

Sorry for broadening the scope of this thread's topic. After all, Zbik is soooo worthy of discussion.

 

You seem to forget mate that if Lemiuex wanted the fight against Martinez next march he would get it ahead Lee...

The only reason Lee is being considered is he could sell in MSG and he is the only one willing to fight Martinez at 160 and would be a draw.

You need to face facts Lemieux aint ready for Martinez or Pirog and thats why his team arent pushing for the fight.....

 

I said earlier..

.. this meant that I retracted myself from saying Lee is next for Martinez - hell, even as an optional. The sanctioning organizations must show some balls at some point; how many fighters directly or indirectly earn a shot to Sturm's belt right now? I thought 'mandatories' because I saw Zbik in the thread title... "v Lee or Zbik" makes it sound like Martinez has a choice. Hope the WBC officials put their foot down - so I hastily thought of the possibility of one of Martinez' future mandatories, and that threw the Lee-Lemieux possibility out there. My bad. So yeah, that's why.

 

Lee is desparate to fight Martinez but I'm not so sure Zbik actually wants the fight. Zbik will probably be in pole position to take it but he might also take a step a side approach and let lee take it instead if Martinez refused to go to Germany.

 

I'd love to see Lee vs Zbik, on HBO Boxing After Dark, the winner fights Martinez.

 

"then", as in 2012...

Where exactly did I say Lemieux was ready for Martinez, bud? I think Lemieux fights either Martinez, Pirog or Sylvester early 2012 for a MW belt. Martinez-Lemieux will look much more appealing to you then, trust me.

Lemieux already talks about Martinez & Pirog during interviews...

I don't think so, not in a hundred ****in years does Martinez-Lee draw decent numbers @ MSG, but that's only my opinion. Your statement is all speculation too.

 

Who's Andy Lee?! :huh

Lee hasn't beaten anyone of note and has no standout performance that suggests he can win the middleweight title. If he even managed to go the distance with Martinez, he'd have something to build on. I don't see that happening though.
