Sergio Martinez: "Mayweather Hand Picks His Rivals".

There's so much **** wrong with your post. Let me start with your first gay sentence. Obviously you have a hard on for purephase, cause if I'm not mistaken, he's stated no facts, simply stated his opinion. If you really respect his opinion that much, there is a personal message system that I'm sure you two would have a lot to talk over.

Quillin, Pirog, go back to 154, there were options. Maybe talk to showtime. But that wasn't the argument. The argument was your man purephase trying to prove that fighting Barker and Dzin,, somehow propelled him to the status to get the Chavez Jr. fight. I haven't seen anything indicating that those fights contributed to anything. If you can come up with something, I'd be all ears.

In conclusion, do you really have to be explained to why Mayweather fought Oscar instead of Williams and Margarito? Seeing as Cotto(e) "wasn't ready" as per Arum. atschatsch

 

Ah, I see. You're just mad.

DeLaHoya was a move to make the jump to exclusively fighting on PPV. Fighting Cotto(e) was overdue and also not a huge leap cause Cotto(e) is a small JMW. I'm sorry, was Mayweather supposed to chase a fight with Cotto(e) when he wanted the fight and was told "Cotto isn't ready"?

 

How does he have the pulpit that makes his vocal bashing the least bit relevant and how is there even a storyline if Martinez isn't fighting on TV? It's not like he's the only middleweight who dared say something negative about Chavez.

 

Quillin decided he wasn't ready for Martinez when offered the Barker date during the second half of 2011. He sure as hell wasn't ready in March, and quite frankly, I have no problem saying that Dzinziruk was a better opponent considering the garbage on Quillin's record at that time. And again, you continue to misrepresent my argument and haven't exactly been speaking in facts either.

 

The vast majority of his trash-talk was through boxing publications and articles. The couple hundred people at Foxwoods and Atlantic City for each fight or the few of us who watched on HBO isn't what you're making it out to be.

 

yes because its ducking if Floyd goes up to middle even at 35 many weights above his original weight and as a true 147 thats more like 2 weights to jump

even as a small 154 to go to middle is a lot to ask and if Floyd doesnt i wouldnt call it ducking

personally id like an Alvarez fight, its more realistic

 

:|:|:| The truth hurts?

 

You grossly overrate the impact of trash talk appearing on the Scene and elsewhere and grossly underrate actually fighting on the biggest American network. Martinez called everyone a ***** at 154 for the majority of 2009, but his career didn't go anywhere until he got the fill-in spot vs. Williams. Lara, Rigondeaux, and Guerrero can be found whining on publications and elsewhere on a weekly basis to no avail.

Well I will leave this now and leave you to your little world where Floyd can fight anyone he wants outside of fighters who will challenge him. Dont worry he's done a good job of it since he fought Castillo.

From July 2011, referring to the Barker date and a couple of weeks before Quillin and Roach suddenly decided Martinez was ducking them.

 

And you grossly overate the niche group of people who watched his appearances during those fights on HBO. Do you live in the U.S.? :think

 

He had a million plus viewers for all 3 fights. And if those watching HBO fights constitute a niche audience, I would say those reading boxing publications and trash talk articles constitute a sub-sub-niche audience.
