    Once upon a time in España

    How will this fight go?

    Both are formidable former world Champions who consider España their second home

    You'd have to favour Martinez on pedigree, although Brook would be a stiff challenge.

    If they fought right now I assume Brook has enough to beat a Martinez in hus 40s. Is this really happening? Think it's a bad idea but will be pulling for Martinez

    Why is everyone ignoring the face that Martinez is 46 years old?

    Maravilla is completely shot and his legs are fossils basically, assuming brook is in non-horrible shape he should win fairly easily. I have the feeling this fight will be little more than glorified sparring though

    Firstly, this fight should never happen.

    Secondly if it does, Brook stops him without much trouble.

    Sergio is a bit heavy-footed, but this made him a heavier puncher scoring two stoppages. This new style he developed suites his age, lets not forget that Sergio is a dangerous puncher

    Martinez was a hell of a fighter but his style relied on a fine judgement of space as well as footwork and reflexes. All that slows and fades as you age, and I feel he'll suffer more from it than a technically correct fighter. Brook is also past his best but he's still dangerous and fast. Assuming all things are equal, young Brook gives old Martinez a hiding.
