Bradley wasn't a result of a curse, that was a stick up robbery.

idiot! He got schooled but never gave up, great heart.

He's 190 pounds fighting a midget. Of course he was still fresh. Idiot. Martinez decided to trade in rd12 and almost paid for it.

Chavez hurt Martinez with a huge right, and two left hooks to knock Martinez down. We're waiting for the official decision: Scorecards: 117-110; 118-109; 118-109

Martinez by unanimous decision. Martinez fought a brilliant fight, but I have to give it to Chavez. He made a tremendous effort at the end.

I think they respect each other more than they did before they started. 321 punches landed by Martinez to 178 punches landed by Chavez.

What about Alvarez fighting his midget?

Because of that 12th round we are now going to get another fight between these two that's not necessary as the outcome will be just as one sided.

Martinez got extremely careless that last round and his machismo almost got him stopped in a fight he was pitching a shut out in.

Canelo has great skills. Chavez does not. He has great size for his division and a great
chin. Not great skills. Canelo fight was a farce, we all know this. Who said otherwise?

I hope there's a rematch so I can unload on Martinez by decision again. He won't engage late in the fight next time.

Ortiz was winning that fight with Lopez so we expected Lopez to lose just like we expected Chavez to lose

Ortiz wasn't winning against Lopez.. He was getting his shit kicked in.

Anyway, Martinez' cockiness finally cost him. Maybe that will smarten him up down the road...maybe not.

Do either of these two fight Golovkin? If Sergio thinks Chavez' pace is high... he's seen nothing yet. I like Martinez but Golovkin probably eats him up. Golovkin puts JR in the morgue.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Martinez smacks Golovkin silly

I love GGG's potential and fight style. I do not think he is ready for Martinez. They need to steer him clear of Sergio for a little while, let him get a little older and let GGG mature some more. He hasnt fought anyone in the same stratopshere as Martinez. He hasnt fought anyone in the top 15 of the division yet, for that matter. Proksa is OK, he's not quite world class. World class fighters dont lose to Kerry Hope.

Proksa-Hope 1 was a robbery.

I think Golovkin is more than ready. The guy has some 345-5 amateur record, beating all of these guys who turn into decent pros. Then he spars and his peers cant hang with him. I think now is the time for him to take on the top guys. He's in his prime. Martinez has already started to fade. I almost don't want to see it as I don't want to see Sergio beaten up.
