    Martinez more recent hands at his side style reminds me of a cocky Calzaghe actually. I think martinet though is actually more coordinated.

    Not unlike rjj's during his screw-the-public campaign at 175. It's what guys with hbo contractcts do - face the crappiest comp. they can find and try to make it all about them and how fancy they are. The good news is, usually these guys eventually go back to fighting real threats once they've exhausted the free money that
    Hbo's flawed model affords them. Until such time, expect to see more of same, with sizzle offered in place of steak.

    THe premise of the thread is that it was anything but

    still, continue pretending that everybody is picking on poor Vitali and never criticizes anything else

    Ok, but Jones was actually really fucking good-mismatches or not, as opposed to Sergio

    He was also a looser more off-the-cuff fighter too.
