    Maravilla wrecks him. I love Timmy, but we are approaching silly levels of adoration.

    Maravilla by decapitation. Get a grip, all of you picking Tim. Sergio beat massive Middleweights like Pavlik and Chavez Jr. Tim hasn't even fought at Middleweight yet.

    I haven't seen one fight that suggests Tim Tszyu would beat Sergio, this is just kinda silly.

    Martinez would have outboxed Tim Tszyu easily. Faster and far more talented fighter. I don’t even think Tim would beat Paul Williams.

    Chavez Jr is a bum and Pavlik was damaged goods. Id still pick Martinez though.

    If T. Tszyu was able to beat the likes of Crawford, Mayweather and Martinez, he would be doing much better than he is now. Rumblings of his talent would have been going on long before now. There is nobody on his resume that comes close to the men I mentioned. Is he talented, most definitely. Is he talented enough to beat guys like prime Crawford and Mayweather? I don't see it yet. But, his upside and potential are huge. He could go on to do great things. I feel if he beats Charlo, Ennis, who I feel will be at 154 within the next 3 years and Crawford. He would be considered a top tier operator. Throw in Castano as well. I say he does great things moving forward. As of right now, I would say he loses to Martinez.

    Pretty much agree. He might still be a few years from peak Tim but from his performance against a good B+ fighter in Mendoza, I'll have to say he loses to a peak Sergio.

    Let's see how he does against Charlotte if the fight ever comes off.

    I'm sure I'm misreading, but it sounds like you're suggesting Paul Williams is an easy night for anybody

    Not at all. As flawed as he was Paul Williams would give hell to most fighters. Guy was a nonstop punching energizer bunny.
