QUOTE (checkleft @ Dec 21 2011, 12:10 AM)  pirog has done absolutely nothing except mirror Tim Bradley Pirog just has terrible management, period. If this wasn't the case, then we definitely would've seen more than him sending Jacobs to the moon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

QUOTE (BoxingEinstein @ Dec 20 2011, 10:01 PM) It won't happen, Sturm is ageing and is now looking to fight sub par opponents after that Macklin fight. Sturm isn't the same fighter he use to be, he's been holding on that belt before the Macklin fight for a long time fighting weak opposition but still get paid so you think he won't keep doing that? Only way Dibella can get that fight is offer money and go to the sanctioning bodies for a unification purse bid to make that fight but thats a long process waiting to happen. The middleweight champs are mostly with promoters who won't risk putting them up against the other champs or great competitiors. Chavez jr., Cotto, and Alvarez is some of the champs in that division that is making it uneventful. Guys like Molina, Martinez, eventually Kirkland, and more are very deserving of title shots soon or should be the ones with their belts. I mean seriously..look at all the fights that could happen... Daniel Geale vs Andy Lee Geale vs Martinez Geale vs Pirog Geale vs Peter Quillin Geale vs Golovkin Geale vs Ishida Pirog vs Golovkin Andy Lee vs Golovkin Andy Lee vs Martinez Andy Lee vs Pirog Kirkland vs Pirog Kirkland vs Golovkin Kirkland vs Martinez Martinez vs Golovkin Lara vs Kirkland Lara vs Andy Lee Lara vs Martinez Peter Quillin vs Lara Quillin vs Martinez etc. the match ups is endless but thanks to Windbag Arum and Bottom Rank and OscarDela Fish Filet and turning a wonderful Robert Schaefers Promotions back to Fishnets Boy Promotions by protecting Alvarez, Chavez Jr, and Cotto who are all champs in those divisions doesn't help at all. Yeah man, good post. |

This is another one of those Martinez fights that Im ready to see fly by (IMG:style_emoticons/default/no2.gif) Dude is gonna look like an ass if he doesn't get a big fight sooner or later. Not that its his fault, but being in shape and knocking down mandatories on HBO, is getting old...shame on his management (somewhat), but more shame on the motherfuckers who dont want to take a chance with matching their fighters with him.
Its gotta suck to be considered the best, and great fighters are passing you by because those guys and their teams are afraid to take a risk. The sad part is, it appears that the guys that are trying to skip around him, are foolishly waiting it out and secretly trying to land "the big fights", but thats something that Martinez deserves more than any of them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/no2.gif) |

Almost forgot this one was this weekend...I see Martinez in some hard rounds, but actually winning this one by close decision. For some reason, I feel like he's overlooking Macklin (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dntknw.gif)

I got that same feeling.. I see a less than spectacular stoppage or a close decision for sergio.

According to the front page, Sergio has been looking "not so good" in his sparring sessions, but Im not sure how much weight that holds. If Macklin's defense is anything close to Barker's, and he's consistent with his offense (which could throw Sergio off), then we may see a good fight.

I see that nobody voted for Martinez by KO/TKO. Interesting...

Macklin could give Martinez trouble - could be a controversial decision for Martinez

am confident martinez will KO macklin, there about the same height, and size, if macklin is advancing to martinez to pressure him well martinez will simply pick his shots and get him out of there in a tko 9 affair, but if martinez is overlooking macklin he will look bad, and can probably lose on points since macklins very aggressive and its st paddys day so irelands more or less behind him in this. but if martinez starts dropping his hands and taking rounds off it can easily look really bad no matter how much hes tearing the guy apart
