    Or is Martin Murray up next?

    Sergio needs to fight Andre Ward or retire.

    Ward? you must hate Sergio. Sergio is a natural 154 lb fighter who only fights at middle cause Pavlik tried cherry picking him and it backfired. He is a small MW and has been the smaller fighter in every fight he's had for over 4 years, 7 straight fights being the smaller guy at MW and JMW....now you want him to go up another division where he'll be even smaller in comparison to everyone else.....not everyone is Pacman. 160 is as heavy as it gets for Sergio and even that's pushing it, he's just a part of a division that doesn't have any real threats, if there were legit top level MW's out there right now Martinezx would be better off at his natural JMW class but considering the very best MW's aside from him are Pirog/Sturm/Chavez Jr/Golovkin there's no need to drop in weight when he could whup all those clowns despite being significantly smaller.

    nope sorry disagree.....


    every boxer that is not a HW.... that cleans out a division is expected to move up....... sergio might be a small 160, but he can still do 168.... he has to move up, or fight bums the rest of his career

    Domestic Journeymen?

    Darren Barker was the former British, Commonwealth and European champion and was undefeated at the time he fought Martinez!

    Mathew Macklin was also a former British and European champion and should also have been going into the ring as the WBA Middleweight champion of the world!

    Hardly Journeymen, I suppose you think Rubio and Manfredo would have done a better job against Martinez tonight?

    **** OFF

    Funny because the last time I checked Macklin beat the 2nd best MW before getting robbed. In other words you're a hater.
