Anyway, good article, Chris. It was well-written and well-thought out. I disagree with some of it, mainly the percentages given, but I can accept your point of view.
Thanks man. I knew there'd be plenty of people that disagreed with the stuff I said and that's fine. I also knew the percentages was one of the things that people would disagree with most and that was definitely the hardest part to come up with so I understand

Yep, I've been thinking that about Valero too.

That was also kind of the point of the article. All those things I named would probably need to be done and there's only a couple that could do it. Martinez and Mayweather. The others can do some of those things and they would probably lose because of it.
I'm not even considering Martinez because he's just too big and pac isn't going to go past 147 anymore. I mean he weighed in at 144 against margarito I think that tells us he's maxed out, whereas Martinez is 170 pounds on fight night. If they were the same size I think Pacquiao would handle him via points, but the size difference is just too great. It would be like asking floyd to fight Andre Ward or Chad Dawson, imo so while Floyd is better then these two guys he'd lose because he would just be too small.

I read yesterday that the WBC ordered Martinez to fight Germany’s undefeated Sebastian Zbik, which will be a mandatory fight and must be taken before the end of March.

206- Why do I need to take notes? I don't see anything in this article that I haven't already stated in the Mayweather vs Mosley thread. Manny has fought nothing but come forward, flat-footed, no hand-speed, no defense having fighters. The last fighter that gave Manny problems (Marquez) actually has defensive skills, counter punching ability, combination punching, and ring generalship. It's a reason why Manny is ducking Marquez. What's going to be funny is the fact that Manny is going to have a very hard fight with Mosley if they do fight. Mosley is damaged goods now, but Manny's style of fighting matches up good with Shane's. Then all the Manny fans will have to come up with some more excuses, like Mosley was in the best shape of his life for the Manny fight and not the Mayweather fight. LOL.. We have about 6 months to wait and see.
