Mayweather states he will posibbly fight Sergio Martinez, but only at a Catchweight? Martinez says he will do 80-20 purse split and has no problem coming down to 154, even to 150 if he has to. Note the cotto belt mayweather won if i remember correctly was Sergio Martinez belt previously.
Why the sudden ask for a catchweight? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRZndeW3OgQ...mp;feature=plcp it shocked me to see that? You thoughts? |

I think its a dangerous fight at 154. Anything below would be pacquiao stuff, we all know sergio can make 154 but 150 is too much for a guy his age.

sergio is an easy fight for floyd. he'll be giving up size...but martinez is not a pressure fighter or a volume puncher. i can't see him giving floyd any problems. after the williams victory...this fight would have been larger than life. now...it's lost some of it's steam. still a great accomplishment should floyd win it though.

At 154...a legitimate evening of boxing. Good stuff.

Why should Floyd give Serg even 20%? Serg has never made even 3 mil for a fight. He doesnt deserve 20%. He deserves the Victor Ortiz treatment. Give him a 5 mil flat fee and tell lace up.

Floyd is my man, but please dont put him in there with Sergio Martinez...When sergio hit williams, i thought he was dead for alittle bit haha.....Sergio has the best punchers chance out there against floyd, other than berto. And i would usually give floyd the nod, but after watching him against cotto, it was almost just the amount he could handle. Sergio is stronger, faster, has that left straight, taller, and much more durable compared to cotto, he wouldnt get outboxed like mosely either.....It would be a great fight, im not sure which one i would go for.............Im already sold (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drinks.gif)

I've always said that Floyd would beat Martinez, in any time frame they fought. But now more then ever I believe he beats Martinez rather handily. at 150 Sergio is dead meat, at 154, I believe will be his best chance to upset Mayweather but even looking at Martinez's last few fights, he hasn't looked particularly stellar. He does come on strong at the end of fights but outside of the 2nd fight with Paul Williams, he has looked mediocre. I don't see how people thinks he's being ducked by Floyd. What money does Martinez bring to the table? Not a damn penny! He's being ducked by Chavez jr and that's it. People need to stop throwing around the "ducking" phrase so loosely, it's becoming quite pathetic. I guess people believe Floyd is ducking Guererro too

I think Floyd wins but its definitely nothing easy or sure. But what I didn't understand is how has he lost steam? Isn't he like on a 4 fight ko streak? |
