Sergio Martinez vs. Darren Barker & Andy Lee vs. Brian Vera II RBR

Calm down.

Sergio's last opponents were Williams, Pavlik and that Sergei guy. Sure he didn't look that great tonight, but he has performed sensational in all others. All boxers are entitled to a bad night at the office.

 

He will wear platform shoes

 

Glad to see three of the biggest Martinez hating stooges together on one page.

 

Post your Barker dissertation from a few days ago. Its rather ironic that the voice of sanity comes from the poster with a number of different identities. Shows what sort of level this forum operates at.

I'd have like a Barker/British persona in the build-up for this though. :sad2

 

Did we just witness Larry have a mini stroke?

 

97-93 96-94 were 2 of the cards. they were all for Martinez, 1 matched Ledermans

 

Floyd beats Martinez regardless of this fight.

He beats him even @ MW.

Yea the thing is you can't find many slick boxers with power at Martinez's weight class.

Martinez clearly underestimated this guy and still knocked him out.

 

Pretty much.

 

Martinez as the Pavlik fight showed can not handle a jab and basic boxer very well, because he keeps his hands low and has poor defense.

The only fight for Sergio is vs. Pirog., if he doesn't fight Pirog is he is a ducking *****.

 

Cards closer than we expected? Maybe for HBO, but I thought they were pretty on point. Some decent judges on that bench tonight.

 

Exactly! Taylor and Pavlik fought BHop in a heartbeat. Old man River terrifies martinez! SM is no kind of middleweight champ. He's a fraud, and I've said that all along.

 

Martinez could always challenge Marquez if Pac, Floyd and Cotto continue to "duck" him lmao

 

Wow Martinez has one bad fight and now he sucks? LOL at that. Barker didn't engage and was intent on surviving more than winning.
