Darren Barker is shite. Martinez is going to rip his head off.

    I reckon Carl Froch would beat seven shades of shit out of Martinez

    Not if he was forced down to 154 or 160 in the name of pound-for-pound greatedness yo.

    At 168 Martinez would be cut-down in nothing flat.

    Froch would needd 6-8 rounds with Barker.

    Can you define for me exactly what criteria it is to decide if you like a fighter or not? It's fascinating - I simply can't figure out what it is that has you defending some fighters but not others.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    PART of the answer,.. is deep within the phrase,.. "OUR MARAVILLA" ... combined with the pop criteria of p4p4p4p4p4p4p4p lists..

    Kessler is all wrong for Martinez. Kessler would beat him handily.

    Arthur Abraham vs Martinez is a better fight which would see Martinez be flummoxed by the high-hands again.

    This time, however, his opponent has serious power, should he choose to use it. :rolleyes:

    There are lots of different criteria....for instance, can he fight, would be one. I don't like Floyd Mayweather, of Las Vegas, Nevada, but Floyd Mayweather the boxer is very talented.

    Yup, Kessler beats Martinez. I'd favor Abraham too.

    Wouldn't matter even if his chin did hold up, I see the likes of Froch and Kessler being too much for his style to really be effective against. They can get to him without being in range for a counter if they stay disciplined, too rangy for Sergio. Plus Martinez proved to be rather susceptible to jabs, he's hardly unhittable, and with the way he likes to jump in they can time it, step back, and fire off the right hand.

    i think froch is over rated as fuck, but his size might be too much for martinez who aint a big middleweight. kessler seems about done, so martinez may beat him. hardly white washes in either fight

    You've got to be fucking kidding? Surely?

    Did you even see Arabham against Frock?

    He's a scrub, Martinez would dominate him.

    :lol::lol:

    I did see Abraham/Froch and yes, Froch absolutely dominated him. I may have gone abit overboard with my Abraham beats Martinez prediction, as i'm still getting over Martinez's lackluster win over Barker and losing out on money.

    I could see Martinez dominating Abraham til the late rounds and then gets ko'd.

    Abraham is fucking awful. I hope he just fucking retires and lives in a fucking windmill or something so I never have to see him on my TV screen again. The cunt.
