    It'd be fine if he could actually make the weight to fight either guy. But he can't. To stretch the example, it's like if he called out Donaire. It's obviously so far from reality it's not remotely plausible. But here, he's calling 2 guys out that are just outside the possible weight range.

    Tough guy... but these fights are never gonna happen so he's just blowing smoke up your ass.

    Unrealistic scenarios.

    I like the possible fights that Kellerman mentioned for Martinez in Angulo and Kirkland.

    top 3 P4P according to who?

    a P4P list is a OPINIONATED LIST, not based on fact. Its a imaginary list made by boxing observers. Who cares.

    And please, Mayweather only fought ONCE above 147, and it was vs. Oscar.

    And please, Pacquiao only fought ONCE at above 147, and that was vs. Margarito and it was a catch weight at that (150), hardly a 154 weight class...

    Some 154 pounders hes calling out......

    You want a challenge? Fight the real contenders in YOUR weight class like Pirog or Golovkin who are hungry for those titles that he has....not smaller based fighters..

    But i understand his preach cause hes looking for the money fights. Pirog and Golovkin will bring more fight but less money.

    Compared to 147 and 168, it sure does. None of those names would draw big numbers, casual fans, or really prove anything (imho).

    edit: I forgot about Cotto. Would be a decent option imo.

    Bute pays peanuts compared to May/Pac why call him out??

    Look it's not rocket science, he called out the two biggest $$ in boxing where there's a slight chance the fights could be made.

    This has nothing to do with size, if May/Pac were MW's he'd be calling them out still and if Bute brought in $10 mil+ I'm pretty sure he'd call him out too.

    I don't believe the fights will be made, too big of a stretch.

    Nothing wrong with him trying though.

    Maybe Ward and Bute better call out Pac and Mayweather too.

    They could do it for the exposure and the $$$, like you guys said.

    Pac is too small even at a 155 catchweight. Floyd, not exactly a big welter either. **** Martinez can compete with SMWs, I don't buy his "too small" BS when he's normal weight is near 170. You want to be like Pacquiao and be P4P #1? Move up, and beat up 'big men' as a 'small man.'

    I'd really like to see Pirog fight whichever of the two Martinez doesn't to build up a Pirog-Martinez title fight.

    HBO seems intent on treating him like an afterthought though, sadly enough.

    Martinez vs Kirkland - I don't think I would be more excited for any fight over the last 10 years besides manny vs oil can floyd.

    Such a shame there are no other big names at MW for him to fight. Maybe he can lure a Super Middleweight to a catch weight? Martinez deserves it.

    **** Martinez. He should be moving up and fighting at the supersix than fighting smaller men in mayweather and pacquiao. If he wants to fight pac, then go down at 147. " im too small for smw". my ass!!!

    His Only Option Is A Paul Williams Trilogy! Biggest Fight he's Gonna Get. Besides He Owes Paul A Rematch Anyway, Paul Gave Him One When He Could He Could Have Said Hell No. And Go A Beat Up On The Guy Martinez Just Knocked Out!

    Now Lou DiBella Is Talk-en That Paul Williams Has No chance Bull****...lol

    Take Away That One Punch Punch Which i sure Paul Will do And We Got
    Williams-Martinez l All Over Again!

    Sergio/Lou DiBella It's 1-1 Give The Main His Rematch! If U Play ***** U ****ed!

    And Calling Out Mayweather When U Have No D And Fight With Your Hands Below Your Waist? U Will Get ****ed Up 4 Certain.

    But Sergio Would Drop Pacman Two Big And To Fast!
    Good Win Tonight Sergio!

    Pavlik Yes, This Bum Who Hasn't Fought In Two Years, Tonight Yes!

    Williams No!
    First Fight- Tough Loss
    Second Fight- Tough Fight-Good Punch!
    Third Fight -Should Be next Because Pacman Aint Fighting Nobody Coming Off A Win, And Mayweather Is So Called Retired! He's Doing The Same Calling Out **** Paul Did When He Beat Sergio! But Its To No Avail all they have is each Other!
