    Would this be a complete mismatch?

    Cdogg might claim that Antufermo wins this, but for the life of me I can't see it. Martinez slices Antuofermo to ribbons.

    So, Marvin Hagler was unable to slice him to ribbons, yet Sergio Martinez can.

    Unbelievable how good this guy must be

    Oh God, here you go bringing up Hagler again. You can NEVER have a Martinez debate without bringing up Hagler it seems.

    NO ONE is saying Martinez is as good as Hagler, or would beat Hagler.

    Minter sliced Antuofermo to pieces however. And one big edge Martinez does have over Hagler is handspeed. Vito would cause rough moments for Martinez, but in the end Serg would be too fast for him, and yes he would likely slice him open.

    Martinez is overrated by some, but he's alot better than YOU give him credit for.

    You KNOW it doesn't work like that. Styles make fights. I'd pick Martinez in this one too.

    Antuofermo by decision. More skilled.

    How did Minter do the first time against Antuofermo when he was lucky to win the title?

    There YOU go with handspeed again. Yeah Martinez's incredible handspeed that he uses to throw leaping shots one at a time is clearly a superior wepaon for making a guy bleed than Hagler's fucking pristine combination punching and accuracy

    Incidentally, how many guys has Martinez actually cut to ribbons? Hagler cut guys an awful lot
