Martinez... he's taller, bigger, pretty fast, can put pressure, can counter... his only problem is his defense.. and if dropping weight would weaken him Kirkland would be good too only because of his insane pressure... At one time, I thought Khan would be good but he doesn't seem mentally strong enough nor have the best defense to stand agaisnt Mayweather
MIKE JONES and heres whyI say this, Jones is a boxer puncher and knows how to fight tall. He has an excellent jab, good speed and good reflexes. Corales had none of that, Mayweathers main weapon and the one that destoyed Corales was that leaping left hook. I dont think he could get Mike Jones with that. Out of all the 147 pounders, I think that MJ would have the best chance. Now I didn't say he would win but his odds seem better to me.
Thats a good call and Im glad somebody else out here reconize a spoiler when the see one. People is sleeping on MJ:yep
The situation with Mike Jones is that at least for a brief period of time, (I believe), he was trained by Frazier. I don't know why they seperated, so I can only speculate on what happened...
I think Khan has proven his mental strength in his modern day wars with Peterson and Maidana. I believe it's his physical strength that is his weakness. This is a fight Mayweather could win by KO in my opinion.
I think Martinez causes him more issues at 154, than Pac at 147. Mike Jones - No, Kell Brook - More of a chance than MJ, but still probably not. I'm not a FM fan, but he is the P4P champion of this era..
second that massively, even martinez... - obviously can bang & pressure but leaves himself there for the counter at times and i think flloyd would be in with the counter and out again before martinez would know it.. - pac obviously remains peoples most hope because everyone wants to see this fight but i think stylistically suits mayweather even more - potential contenders you would say people like kell brook or mike jones but we haven't really seen enough of them to come out and say they would dethrone flloyd. They'd have to go through other big welterweight names first like ortiz, berto etc... & get in the que!
If you bring up Martinez you might as well bring up Wlad since neither Pac/Floyd camps are interested in fighting the guy
