    Listen to you salivating there over another blown-out-of-proportion win for Mayweather. Get a grip.

    Martinez at 160 would be a very dangerous fight for Floyd, who is not big enough for middleweight.

    Martinez is really a light-middle, and he's not a fighter who imposes his size on his opponents. He'd have a height advantage, and enough pop to keep Mayweather honest, but he's not got the daunting presence of say, Pavlik or Williams.

    Not to say it would be an easy fight...Martinez has a tremendous amount of ability and an unorthodox style.

    It would be a ballsy move from Mayweather, but a calculated one. I don't think he'd hang about to defend his title.

    Im saying p-will has a low punch output against movers because he can't get off his 100+ punches per round agaisnt them, which isn't good for him.
