    Huh? Martinez is a small mw in which anybody with a brain can see that. If Martinez moves back down to jmw then he should get the credit if he can beat canelo/cotto/mayweather. <<<Its not like all 3 will move up. If it was a catchweight like at 157 pounds or 160 pounds limit then u have a point but if its at the 154 jmw limit then you are nuts.

    Thats good to hear, but not really interested in a rematch so i hope it falls through. Fight will look much like the first.

    Martinez vs GGG/Pirog winner /Cotto/Canelo/Mayweather

    are the only fights I want for Martinez from here on out. Hope Lou is able to secure one of these fights for him.

    Is GGG fighting Pirog? Last I heard he was in 'hot pursuit' of putting the throttle to Sturm and making an impression while Loeffler is negotiating to get a fight signed with Geale by December 31st, or Geale loses the WBA "Super" strap. Though I wouldn't be surprised to see him willingly vacate.

    When Martinez comes back in May, there should be a clear cut #1 contender and he needs to fight him.

    I think most fans without an agenda would give him full credit if he came back from his injury and beat Canelo. And fighting Mayweather is lose lose? Not even slightly. If he beats Mayweather, he will be the first and maybe only person to ever beat one of the biggest names the sport has every produced. All the naysayers about innactivity and size wouldnt overcome the positives that would come with beating Mayweather. So no, Canelo nor Mayweather are lose/lose.

    Why anyone even talks about SMW when discussing Martinez Ill never know though. GGG, Pirog, Chavez 2, Geale.

    Hes got a pack full of contenders to deal with at his own weight, why in the hell would he move up from a weightclass hes already topped out in? Its like fans cant comprehend this and I dont understand why.

    No I dont think G3 is fighting Pirog anymore, like you said probably Geale, or maybe even Sturm I heard?

    Anyways, ya once hes back hopefully the contenders have produced his next clear challenger.

    Pavlik (Lineal Champ), Williams (Top 5 P4P), Macklin (Top 3 MW*), Chavez (Top 3 MW*) are all pretty good wins. Unless he can get Floyd, he needs another 3 or 4 defenses against top rated 160 to talk 'legacy' in a realistic sense. Unifying the division helps that cause.

    * at the time

    'Yup.


    And Pirog still running from, well.... everyone I guess, cuz he hasnt fought one single guy in the top 10 :lol:

    Martinez running from Pirog, Pirog running from the entire top 10 of middleweight :lol:

    One.... just one, pirog hasnt fought one fighter in the current middleweight scene, in the top 10, and quite possibly the top 15. LOL.

    Keep running Pirog.

    :patsch

    If Gennady keeps rolling, he'd be wise to take that fight sooner rather than later while he still has his legs. GGG could very well be future champ and ruler... A win before that happens, would also help his cause when hindsight comes into play.

    Pirog V Golovkin was almost made,then Pirogs mysterious back injury finished the prospect of that happening,Pirogs back must be better by now lets hope this fight will get made again,I know for a fact Golovkin wants to fight Pirog badly so the ball is in Pirog's court and hopefully he gets his act together and Fights Golo.!!!!

    Chavez seems to be the only "money" fight that's available......none of the smaller guys want to get at Sergio......but it will be interesting to see how much Chavez wants a shot at redemption. He lost a one sided fight...aside from the last round. It was entertaining.....but not sure if it would be PPV worthy.
