    Kirkland is tailor-made for Martinez IMO. Kirkland is a tough SOB but suprisingly his chin isn't. He's been dropped by inferior opposition before. I think Martinez's counterpunching style is all wrong for Kirkland's come-forward, chin-up style.

    I think Martinez even beats Pavlik..

    I agree it would be a hell of a fight. And you're right in that Kirkland may be somehwhat of a glass cannon. Sergio has the superior skill in terms of movement, slickness, and counter-punching. He's gonna need all of that if he's gonna get by Kirkland. Martinez, being Argentinian, also has that macho, Latin willingness to trade. But Kirkland. . man, he's got that gang member aura and personality about him, almost Tyson-like in my opinion.


    Would so love to see this fight.:good
