    It was a close fight Floyd did not blow him out

    Golovkin would get him paid about $100 lol

    Obviously at this point in his career Sergio wants to secure his future financially. He's had a tough road getting to the spot he has now and he wants the big fights, the big names, the big money. He's willing to go down to 154, where Floyd and Cotto both fought last. Golovkin hasn't really beaten anyone yet anyway.

    I would say it's a bit more complicated then that. He's not targetting fighters that are just easy money. Floyd is P4P number 1 and would be the best possibe name on his resume. And of course, he will bring a career high pay day.

    Sergio:"But Mayweather doesn't like facing the tougher, bigger and stronger fighters''

    Boxing Fan: Well, how about a fight with Andre Ward at 168?

    Sergio: I'd like to fight Pacquiao or Cotto at a catchweight.

    Boxing Fan: What about Ward?

    Sergio: I don't like fighting bigger, tougher fighters, unless they are slow and flat footed like Pavlik and Chavez jr. Besdies Ward would beat me handily, thus reducing my marketability and money making potential because at this point I only want a check with minimum risk so I can fade back into obscurity like 5 years ago when nobody knew who I was....

    You missed the part where Ward said he won't fight at a catchweight, thus killing your poor attempt at a parallel.

    Sergio starts calling Ward out at 160 after Andre said he wouldn't fight at a catchweight. It's cool though, Sergio wants a paycheck, not an ass whupping. I don't blame him!!!!

    Martinez has said he'd be open to doing 164. Ward isn't; he's not willing to be as accommodating for potential opponents as Dawson was forced to be against him.

    The pot calling the kettle black

    Somebody should ask Sergio when he's gonna fight Pirog, Golovkin and Geale and stop chasing smaller guys like Pac and Floyd and inexperienced guys like Chavez Jr for a fat paycheck

    So this where ex-*******s are! Hoping on the maravilla band wagon! Serg is prolly my second favorite fighter. Sergio is the doin the same thing as floyd. Hes trying to make the most money that he can, which is what a prize fighter SHOULD do. Hes just not a big enough draw. Floyd wil fight canelo Pacman and cotto again before he fights sergio. As much I like sergio tho, Floyd would whoop his ass too. I hope the fight happens cuz if floyd beats maravilla his top 10 top 5 all time would be solidified
