So do you hate on Martinez because he beat Pavlik's ass? I mean, he vacated the 154 pound belt to move up for the Pavlik fight, he has remained there because he has the belt. Pac claims to have won the very belt Sergio vacated, they are seperated by 2 weight classes at the most. How do you arrive at 3 divisions below him? When was the last time Pac had a fight at 140, and didn't Arum say he'd have to starve himself to make 140...yes so he's a full WW? 147 to 160 is two classes, both Pac and PBF have had fights in the 154 class, obviously Sergio has, so I'm not sure why this continues to be used as an excuse for the "best" guys to not fight the man.
Martinez has grown to be a big middleweight. He comes to the ring at 170 pounds. The same weight as Taylor, Pavlik, Miranda, and other "big middleweights." To this very day Hopkins still gets **** on for fighting smaller guys: Oscar, Tito, Pavlik. Jermain Taylor still gets flack for Ouma and Spinks. Pavlik gets trashed for fighter smaller guys ever though he fought at SMW and above about 13 or 14 times. Why isn't Martinez held to the same standard?
Until you are the one knocking out undefeated champions, scoring KOs of the year, winning fighter of the year awards... YOU sir are the one that should kindly STFU.
When you are a fighter in your prime just hitting the apex of your popularity... why not call out the big names to make that big money before your 37th birthday? Methinks some of YOU don't have a full understanding of the game.
Read the thread Idiot, I answered the same dumb ass question El chivito asked Whos Butthurt? im laughing at the queen and if you watched the vid of manny, he laughed at sergio too You the only butthurt fool in this conversation, This is boxing, there are weight ranges atsch
Weight-wise, Hopkins has always weighed near the same as his opponents. I like how you said Pavlik was "smaller" though he was taller and not too far apart from Hopkins weight-wise lol.
Some people have the nerve to say that a rematch with pavlick is more interesting than pac or floyd?:huh why??? he already beat his ass, that's like saying that pac should rematch david diaz its funny to me that people wont support p4p1 vs p4p3 and yet they support pac vs margarito atsch. Guys, At least sergio is trying to fight the 2 best fighters in the world at their prime, although smaller, thats a better, more legit challenge than pac fighting drained senior citizens, hasbeens coming off losses :tong 160 is garbage, i say sergio gets rid of those 2 primadonas at 154 and jump to 168 to challenge frocsh or dirrel Dont waste time at 160
And sergio vs piroq is like pac fighting devon alexander. sergio is fighting for p4p supremacy, he doesn't need to beat a green young fighter comming up
So this addressed nothing about my post...like literally nothing. Obviously you are "proud" of your response which is why you put the "witty" smiley faces I assume, but in reference to my post that you quoted, you addressed literally nothing. I honestly don't even get why you took the time to type this out, when it legitiamately has no information and/or substance what so ever. So do you have a ****ing point, or what exactly are you trying to say, other than Sergio is picking on Manny, and Manny is too weak to defend himself because he's too small (even though he had possession of the belt Sergio vacated, and fought a guy who is as big as Sergio in his last fight).
I've literally never heard one person, or read one article, that has even hinted at giving Hopkins **** for the Pavlik fight. Not saying they don't exist, just saying I've never seen or heard it...EVER.
So he can't make 140 because he would have to starve himself per Arum, and his "Limit" is 150, so he can only weigh 147 lbs...period. So basically you are saying he can't put on any weight or lose any weight that can only be expected of his opponents...cool story bro.
