Sergio Martinez Responds to Arum's Claims That He's Not A PPV Buy!

[drewelbestia]

QuicK Question.BOB...And,,,,Tim Bradly is a PPV ATTRACTION? lmfao.....fuckin pussy..put sergio in there with chavez jr....see how fast chavez jr gets his ass knocked out...

[folioboards]

I want to see Martinez vs Canelo what a match.

[lenperez21]

and tim bradley is a ppv buy ?

[Nytowl7]

Bob Arum is a "Name Dropper" nothing more then that. The bloke just drops names of the best fighters in each weight class knowing his boxers can't stand up against them but, in dropping their names every so often he elevates his boxers names to their level. The truth is Bob Arum don't want none of Mayweather or Martinez because he knows that both Sergio and Floyd would fuck Chavez and Pacquiao up. Miguel Cotto would beat the shit out of Chavez even. ARUMS ALL TALK!

[borinquenlomejor]

Sergio retirate estos pendejos no te quieren peliar te tienen miedo....

[1969JohnnyM]

Arum will keep Chavez away from the true the middleweight champion of the world Martinez by not boxing him, thats why he's dissing him to cover up the fact Chavez is a paper champ. Arum is a parasite, the sooner he's gone the better. Arum might be lining his pockets cos lots of teenage girls might be at Chavez's bouts but i'm sure ALL hardcore fans know hes nothing til he boxes Martinez + til then he's a paper champion.

[scorpio11477]

2:20 - "Are there any flaws he's seen in Chavez Jr?"

I'm surprised Sergio didn't bust out laughing at that question.

[skbainze]

hahaha bob arum is a fukin idiot! saying sergio martinez has never been on ppv, well tim bradley has never been a ppv attraction. hes never been the main fight on ppv n no1 knows who d hell he is realy. good luck tryna sell dat fight bob! haha

[wheresthaluv]

That's crazy when somebody can say that about the #3 pound for pound, but can bob arum find one of his cashcows that can beat martinez. chavez jr. or alverez is not ready. golden don't have anything for marti. only inthe supermiddle weight class can you find monsters. and welter. problem is that for the doe certain welters can make him lose the wieght. and then sergio will learn that "MONEY" isn't good when you wanna be seen as great. marti is not that young anymore. love aside.

[thewisejanitor]

and everyone knew who the fuck joshua clottey was? arum give me a fucking break u disgust me. u seriously ruin boxing more than help it just fucking leave

[1969JohnnyM]

Arum does'nt even try to hide that its all about dollars and dollars only. Its guys like him who've killed this sport in manys eyes, Chavez should man up + fight the REAL World Champion Martinez who Arum with that other crooked slime ball Suliman helped engineer stealing his title so he could give it to Chavez jr. The sooner they're like is gone the better. They have zero integrity + are a shame to the sport !

[1969JohnnyM]

So the man every true fan and publication sees as number one had his belt stripped off him and GIVE to Chavez jr. Chavez should man up and fight him is'nt that what Mexican boxers do.

[doomsdaymachine2]

well i would pay to see him knock out chavez lol

[ElShylo]

ARUM is SCARED, envious & jealous & wishes Sergio was 1 of his fiters & make alot mo $. I dn't blame him. Fact is: Every1 knws The Super Natural Marvelous 1, Sergio Martinez will beat Floyd, Manny & Cotto senseless. Ward, Bute etc, wld b no dffrnt. Floyd, Manny Cotto, sign dem contracts boys, it's time 2 prove it all over again. No mo chuckin, jivin & ducking. U cn't hide or run 4ever. It's time 2 "embrace the horror" of losing it all. Tru SUPREMACY IS IN UR FACE. "An Order of WOLF" is here.

[hommage101]

who cares if he doesn't have a ppv background, who cares. he is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world.

[Roshe1888]

And neither has Rubio, Zibik, Manfredo etc but you still keep putting him in with that lot.

Arum talks shit and know Martinez would destroy that chump

[MrNickolitis]

Fuck Sergio Martinez, he's a coward. 

[mezquital1982]

@MrNickolitis LOL man come to earth.



[MrNickolitis]

@mezquital1982 Hmm, the guy was asked if he would fight Bhop if Bernard came down in weight, he said no but he wants to fight smaller guys? That's not a coward to you? LOL smh. If he's serious about fighting, how come he doesn't challenge Ward? Know why, because he's a coward and wants to fight smaller guys.

[mezquital1982]

@MrNickolitis LOL SMH! This fucking guy fought Pavlik, Margarito, and Williams. Plus people say he is a small middle weight. Sugar Ray Learnard fought from 147-160 do you consider him a coward? Keep in mind Sergio started at welter weight. Read some magazines and look up some boxing history FOO! I PITY YOU!

[MrNickolitis]

@mezquital1982 Pavlik, you mean the Ricky Hatton of the middleweight division, Margarito the guy that beat Martinez, and Williams the overrated bum who was getting outpointed by Cintron. Yeah he's a coward because he's asking for smaller guys to fight him but when a bigger guy calls him out, he curls up like a pretzel. GTFO, you wanna talk keep talking kid. You just got owned.

[mezquital1982]

@MrNickolitis It seams to me that you are only spewing you own personal opinion. The thing that was being discussed was Maritinez's bravery. He has fought good opposition and had defeated them expect for Margarito(whos victory MAY have been due to hand wraps). I also sense some insecurity due to your last sentence and I quote "You just got owned." A person who is completely confident in their statements does not need to reassure themselves. Perhaps Martinez is out looking for a good payday?

[MrNickolitis]

@mezquital1982 Whoa whoa honeybuns, why do you have to get personal? I thought we were friends just discussing boxing. Well duh, I'm spewing my own personal opinion, I'm the only one typing genius. LOL Martinez is looking for a good payday, let me tell you something kid, fighting Hopkins and Ward would generate more money than fighting Chavez, why is he calling out Chavez. If he's so brave, why did he act like a girl when asked about Hopkins?

[1969JohnnyM]

@MrNickolitis Hopkins and ward generate less money than Chavez, unfurtunately hype overcomes ability in ppv's and Chavez earns more than them. Ward will earn more in the future but regardless Chavez got Martinez's belt by skullduggery, he never fought him also Chavez is bigger than Martinez whilst Hopkins/Ward are way higher weights.

[MrNickolitis]

@1969JohnnyM With Ward becoming fighter of the year and everybody wanting to see Sergio fight Ward, why is he quick to rule fighting guys bigger than him and who has more skilled than him with less financial upside, yet he wants Chavez to fight him when he doesn't bring anything to the table? Way higher weight class, you mean like 2 divisions up but he wants to call out Pac and May? See where the hypocrisy is?

[1969JohnnyM]

@MrNickolitis Martinez mostly fought at welter, then moved up to light middle, he's already fighting above his weight at middleweight whilst Chavez jr if he did'nt drain himself so much could fight at light heavy. If 6ft 2in Chavez had the balls to get in the ring with 5ft 10in Martinez he would have a 25lb weight advantage and on top of that Martinez is nearly middle aged + JC jr is young, if you want to be called World champion you have to face the no1 guy.

[MrNickolitis]

@1969JohnnyM The number one guy has been chasing smaller guys to fight. Chavez just said he would fight him, who gives a fuck about that fight

[1969JohnnyM]

@MrNickolitis he also said if Arum allows it. His whole team diss Sergio cos they know Chavez is a paper champ til he boxes the real Champ Martinez + they know SM will ko JC's ass. They gotta protect the Chavez piggy bank so expect more shit defences from 182lb middleweight JC.He'll be kept boxing guys who are limited or hav'nt got any movement like Sergio, Arum may gamble JC might win when Sergio is 40yrs old but i doubt JC will be a middleweight by then.

[MrNickolitis]

@1969JohnnyM Look Martinez is a punk, if he really wants to be a big PPV sell, move up and fight Ward. He doesn't have the appeal but he is an elite middleweight.

[1969JohnnyM]

@MrNickolitis He's been given Masrtinez's belt - simple as he should take it of him in the ring. Also Martinez WAS a career welterweight who moved up to lightmiddle and is already fighting out of his class fighting at middleweight, if your happy with Chavez jr being called world champ and fighting 2nd rate boxers then sorry its no wonder most see him as a paper champ. MOST fans + all the boxing media see Martinez as no1 if Chavez wants to be called no1 then he needs to box him.

[MrNickolitis]

@1969JohnnyM And what does that do for Martinez other than give him money that he can't make coz no one knows who he is? I don't care if he fights Chavez, what he needs to do is stop calling Mayweather or Pac and then claiming they are ducking him when he does that same thing against Ward or Hopkins. Matter of fact, Ward would annihilate him and it wouldn't even be worth it for Ward. Fuck Sergio.

[1969JohnnyM]

@MrNickolitis I dont care who makes what money, i'm a boxing fan i want 1 world champion which at 160lb the general concencus is the no1 is Martinez. Its shit like Chavez + other paper champs being awarded belts without fighting the top guy thats gonna slowly kill this sport hes been made a champ by fighting Zbik, Manfredo etc what a joke. I'm glad Martinez threw his diamond belt (what a crock of shit) in the bin. I want the best guys to box each other, not more Chavez paper champs

[Nytowl7]

@MrNickolitis Do you have any common sense? You just said Named Hopkins and Ward to fight Sergio yet your accusing Sergio of name calling lower weight fighters? Floyd and Pacquiao are by concesis the best boxers in the business right now. Hopkins last fight was at 175lb, while Ward is 168lb and Sergio is 160lb. Chavez is in his weight class so why wont he fight Sergio? Because he knows he'll be fucked up. Floyd is moving to 154lb which is 6lb off Sergio. That fight is worth persuing.

[MrNickolitis]

@Nytowl7 You haven't been keeping up huh? Hey genius, I said Sergio is a coward. He challenged the smaller fighters but won't fight bigger ones. Ward is top 5 P4P and has a bigger name than him, so does Hopkins. Keep up before you speak. Martinez challenged Pac and Floyd who he said he would lose weight to fight, but then Hopkins said he would lose weight to fight Sergio, Martinez punked out like a girl. Chavez isn't even in the same discussion.

[Nytowl7]

@MrNickolitis So your giving shit to Martinez for calling out smaller fighters when Hopkins is doing the exact same thing by calling Martinez out. Andre Ward is very much the same in the sense that he's slightly bigger. So your actually being a hypercrite. My point is that Andre Ward is no where near as big of a scalp as Mayweather and Pacquiao, critic him all you want but, Sergio, Floyd and Pacquiao are the biggest names in boxing right now. I think Ward is a great fighter all the same.

[MrNickolitis]

@Nytowl7 You really are a Sergio fan boy huh? And kind of stupid if you think Sergio is one of the biggest names in boxing right now. If he is a big name, why the need to go after Pac and Floyd? Why can't he sell PPV? If he's such a big name why would he need to be calling out anyone, people should be calling him out for a payday? You are ridiculous and stupid for making that statement. First off, Hopkins and Ward are bigger names that he is. And yes Sergio is a bitch.

[Nytowl7]

@MrNickolitis It's the same reason Pacquiao went after Floyd through the media. If you say you want something often enough and keep winning people start asking questions only when Floyd turned around to fight Pacquiao, he turned and ran like a bitch. Hopkin's is boring to watch nowdays, he's done. The guy jumps in the ring and people are amazed to see him win but, if he lost no one would be suprised so you'd get no credit for beating up pops. Ward is interesting and maybe that would happen.

[Nytowl7]

But, to even suggest Hopkins is a joke. Your talking about a guy who is in excess of 15lb heavier then Sergio. The problem right now for Sergio is that either side of middleweight are some good fighters but, within there are slim pickings. He wants cash so that makes it obvious, You have to go to the cash cow of boxing....Mayweather. That is a fight worth seeing, I still think Floyd would take care of Sergio in a great fight.

[MrNickolitis]

@MrNickolitis Of course you appreciate homosexuality, it's the main reason you love Martinez lol

[Nytowl7]

@MrNickolitis Why is this comment directed towards yourself? LMAO!

[travisvennable]

fuck bob arum. it's men like him who are bleeding this sport.

[xicali110]

yes martines was not a ppv arum always.protecting the cash cow! he did the same with juan manuel lopez duking celestino caballero who call hin out and also chicken lol!! but they never though salido with 10 looses was going to knock him out!! i feel good that the paper champion ended

[christianosuna1]

Soo, let me ask a simple question:

WHO WANNA FIGHT SERGIO MARTINEZ?

PUSSYS!

[mrluckysj13]

fuck you..greedy fucken jew

[OmarTheGuy]

Martinez isnt a PPV attraction.......but Zbik is is.

[kypselialani14]

he's a lot more entertaining than mayweather at least...

[elruni]

just to add: normally in interviews Sergio's declarations are not entirely translated, and he says things like 'he's a great fighter' and they are not translated, and I reckon a lot of people think he's a dick for what he says sometimes as he only gets to say nasty things as he's being screwed over by promoters a lot (in general terms speaking!), but he actually is quite a nice guy, at least in front of the media... the day he learns english people will love him even more. Sergio campeón.

[mataaguilar]

FUCK BOB ARUM

[broli28]

By beating Paul Williams convincingly, he inherited the same problem that Paul had. Not a big enough name to draw ppv buys, but good enough to upset the favored name headlining. It really sucks to be him right now. Good enough to be in the talks for p4p, but can't get a major payday with a big name. Damn. That's the business.

[jinfreakx]

he has a bad promoter...margarito and cotto are way high compared to this guy in ppv sales....go to top rank and make the pacquiao vs martinez...

[onitsed18]

martinez is one of the few argentinians i like!! he is pretty humble.... and messi... i'm mexican but I dnt think chavez jr is ready for martinez yet... I think that's why they dnt want to let him fight martinez... but i agree it would be a good fight and a good way to probe that chavez jr deserves to be called the champion in the 160s lb

[jonremache]

Sounding more like Mayweather. Boxing is dead because of men like Arum. Who gives a shit about ppv buys, its about seeing who is the best. So sad to see.

[onitsed18]

@jonremache amen to that bro!!

[gcirc]

you gonna fight floyd manny ahahaha i dont no ask bob arum and people say floyd ducking PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[rtuumm]

I dont care if Martinez is not a PPV fighter. As long as I get to see him put on good fights for FREE, its all good. I rarely buy PPV anyways

[madrilista2011]

I'd rather watch Martinez on HBO than pay for any fixed ppv fight arum puts on.... fuck u Bob arum u fucking pussy... fuck u too Manny for letting arum control u

[jaythekinginthe323]

martinez could b a ppv if he fights cotto,margarito,mayweather,paq­uiao,bute,ward,froch even chavez jr could B a ppv ill pay to see either 1 of those

[83rush]

tell the truth old man! martinez will end pacman and mayweather! i understand the business point, why not tell the truth! sergio martinez is to damn good and strong for a fight with manny! i like mannys style but face it world martinez is being ducked because he ends careers! bob arum will keep manny wining with hand picked fighter as long as theres cash flowing in! why stop getting rich off someone and risk him getting dethroned! b smart bob arum, put martinez under ur wing and get more money!

[dirkz1313]

sergio is already known in the world and many would watch his fights...

[cmoneyno5]

154 isn't a catchweight but 154 is Sergio Martinez's natural weight class. Floyd would fight Sergio without any catchweights unlike some P4P prince.

[Bigflyswoosh]

Joshua clottey nothing more

[jaythekinginthe323]

they could make him a ppv guy if they face him with froch,ward,bute and they made those ppv I would pay 2 see those fights

[rikstarmrz7]

Martinez is a Monster, he decapitates people in the ring................

[MaestroBoxing]

Joshua Clottey, the PPV KING !

[MrFudawg]

Bob Arum is right. If he is a good PPV buy, then prove it.

[jonremache]

@MrFudawg How can he prove it when Cotto, Pacman, nd Mayweather don't wanna fight him?

[jonremache]

Hope Top Rank goes down the tank and more promotions like Golden Boy rise up.

[frost310]

That translator SUCKS.

[tubesteakZ]

Sergio gives one of the most amazing knockouts in recent boxing history, defeats Kelly Pavlick who is no joke as a fighter and makes easy work of dzinziruk and Bob Arum says he's no attraction and blames his promoter? Arum is this wrestlemania or the beautiful sport of Boxing? Ridiculous comments. Cut the bullshit and give this man his due.

[Prettyboypanda]

Martinez would k.o. Chavez jr no lie and bob fat arum is fucken scared he know what can sergio martinez do in the right bob is a coward

[broli28]

it would be a major buy if he fights Pacman....hello...bob?...are you there bob?....guess he hung up.

[IRONPACMANHD]

bob tuene miedo eso es asi

[IRONPACMANHD]

sergio le gana a pacquiao y a cotto q son tus boxeadores oite arum, tu debes estar siego para no ver el gran talento de martinez, envidioso...

[kingdaleclarke]

bb arum likes his fighters fighting jokes after pacquiao marquez i guarantee pacquiao will be fighting another joke trust me

[tr4nc3d]

Bob Arum is a crazy old fucker who says crazy shit. Half the stuff that comes out of his mouth is crazy, just like old grandpa merchant(guy just doesn't want to die)

[vigorongranadino12]

Sergio dice la verdad, es un tipo con buena pegada y no muy reconocido. La pregunta es quien quiere perder ante un tipo haci?

[Bsantana1989]

Arum is full of shit!Sergio doesn't sell ppv?well how about Clottey,he sure as hell wasn't a ppv attraction in my book.

[Solowizard]

HEY BOB !

.

Put your Pacquiao in the ring with Sergio Martinez on any given day, and I guarantee you he'll be a PPV ATTRACTION after the fight is over. Nobody can beat this guy, not Pacquiao, not Mayweather, not anybody. Serge is too quick, too smart, and too powerful, and he's slightly smaller than Antonio Margarito.

[YoungDrizzle215]

@Solowizard I would love to see Sergio fight Mayweather at a catchweight of 154. Sergio fights with his hands down which would be easy pickings for Floyd. I just dunno if Floyd will be able to put on a dominant performance against Martinez, but I do believe May can beat him.

[oaktown69ville]

@YoungDrizzle215 sergio i think will win

[Thuqtastic520]

Bob arum should give Chavez Jr some good fighters to go against. So he can shut these yotube shit talkers up. Chavez Jr has potential you people just wait and see.

[Solowizard]

@Thuqtastic520 - I disagree. Obviously, they know something. Chavez Jr. is a lot like Berto. He's good against second stringers, but they're afraid to put him in the ring with a Top Marquee Fighter, because they know he's not that good. I'd like to see him against Cotto. I bet that would answer lots of questions.

[JubeiDOK]

Promoting in boxing seems backwards to me. Shouldn't it be the fighters saying I want to fight this guy, now you go out and get it for me?

Seems to me what they really are are agents, smooth talking the fighters with the prospect of big money.

[TheRey4you]

i feel really feel like knocking bob arum out !!!! i know hjes old.. but i would pay to knock his ass out. sergio will knock all his fighters out and eat pacquiao for lunch.

[MadcapKid23]

That guy can't translate worth a shit. He's pretty much answering the question himself.

[LIKWITCREW1]

ITS bullshit he doesnt want his guy to loose, when u put pac vs clottey, clottey wasnt a payperview attraction but they gave hime the fight,,,they choosing who they think there fighters can beat

[merksperk2]

@LIKWITCREW1

I agree. Bob Arum is saying that Martinez isn't a pay-per-view fighter when Martinez clearly is a bigger draw than Clottey, who Pacquiao fought. Arum is such a hypocrite.

[stevecsulb10]

a BIG FUCK U to Bob Arum...stupid fuck just scared to put his fighters up against Sergio..shut the fuck up and let the fighters fight u piece of crap...give the people what they want u sorry shit

[0shondre1]

Boxing is headed down the wrong road...it was never all about pay per view only... WED n Friday night fights...and boxing after dark & showbox made boxing names what they are... so fights can be made... when you are a superstar then ok Pay Per View.. But neither of those two names JR nor Martinez are so big that they can't put that fight on HBO without it being PPV.... they will make money regardless..FUCK BOB ARUM...

[bowner1234]

Martinez is one of the most entertaining fighters ever who wouldn't pay to watch him ,Arum you dirty old bastard your full of shit

[TerrisJ3]

@bowner1234 no, Calzaghe was an entertaining fighter! one of the best might i add!

[aherreramartin89]

PAC VS MARTINEZ OR MAYWEATHER AND SERGIO IS BIG TIME SELLABLE... THERES MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO KNOW ABOUT MARTINEZ WHERE YOUR OLD ASS BEEN AT ARUM???

[nightmare187able]

i will buy it.

[merksperk2]

LOL Arum is so full of shit.

[opethgarzaMD]

@merksperk2

every promoter is full of shit my man xD they're a bunch of corrupted bastards

[toxicbytes]

Martinez is doing too much self promotion that he can't anything for himself. Fire that promoter. Hahahaha.

[honorablecbm]

I want PAC vs Sergio! Pac fought Margarito at catch weight of 150 last November. Fireworks of Pac and Sergio are VERY possible if he did that. Margarito weighed 165. Considering Manny graced the 150 weight class, I don't blame Sergio for flirting with that challenge when Bob Arum called him out.

[nogy1975]

Maravilla Martinez es mucho para el Jnr es mucha la diferencia de edad y de experiencia , al Jnr le falta mucho todavia, si le entra al Maravilla es k tiene huevos pero lo dudo k esa pelea se logre.

[LIONSPRODUCE]

MARTINEZ manda al hospital al JR.

K mal se vio bob arum con los comentarios..

pero como dice el miedo no anda en burro le acaba la minita de oro si golpea a chaVES..

[ednagus]

no creo yo que alla un boxeador que le pueda gana a martines maravilla y claro que si lo pusieran en PPV asta 100.00 valdria la pena pagar es un boxeador que deverdad le pone emocion a sus peleas

[adair091180]

Lo unico ke tiene bueno el jr !! Es el nombre de su padre!!! Su hermano omar ,, es mejor!!! sorry!!

[adair091180]

Y como chavez jr es hijo de chaves sr, el

Si deja dinero por eso lo hasen ganar al estupido y me da triatesa ke seamos mas estupidos nosotros al pagar por estas peleas arregladas aun cuando el estupido de bob arum lo dise claramente!!! Ke tristesa!! ;(

[elio646]

Man, I wish today was 2000-2001  and Sergio Martinez, as good as he is now, fight guys like Oscar De La Hoya, Felix Trinidad, Winky Wright, etc

[rafatorres77]

el traductor no vale madres..translator sucks!!!

[mandewH]

Martinez looks excited that JCC Jr. is the champ lol

[skinniloco1]

no douwt if bob was his promoter he be in ppv

[iamzero79]

i just realized that english has more words when translating spanish.

[jose619killer]

bob Arum UR DISGUSTING OLD MAN THE TRUTH COMES OUT he cares more about money then actual boxing typical....

[feraupk2]

@elprincipitooo don't they test they're blood after the fight ? give pacquiao lots of credit fighting way bigger opponents than he is.. that's what happened when a person has so much success...people started getting jealous....

[01tizoc]

Another dumb ass translator!!! Shit! And Maravilla shouldn't be calling out Chaves Jr! He should be calling out The Pac-Man!!! If he has balls like he says.

[elprincipitooooo]

@01tizoc Tell your Pac-man to have the balls to take a blood test. Also, tell him to stop draining down bigger opponents and bulking up smaller ones. He stopped being a real boxer after featherweight.

[jose619killer]

@01tizoc Hes been calling out Pacquiao and doesnt get a response lol. watch more martinez vids most of them he calls pac out saying hes going to KO him. Chavez jr is a more possible fight at this point.

[masterdelrap]

ESE TRANSLATOR NO DIJO NADA DE LO QUE SERGIO MARTINEZ DIJO CORRECTO CUANDO SERGIO DIJO KE ARUM LE TIENE MIEDO EL DIJO OTRA COSA

[masterdelrap]

WHY HE DINT SAY THAT SERGIO MARTINEZ WAS SAYING THAT ARUMS SCARED

[agrariozaaz1]

damn that translator really sucks!!!!!!

[saltruj]

Worse translator ever.

I like you Maravilla but your gonna kill Jr.,...

You dont wanna be a killer,... do you?

[GGARBELLI]

SEXY SERGIO MARTINEZ PUESTO' TODO KO, destruirán cualquier boxeador: PACQUIAO / MAYWEATHER / COTTO/ STURM/CHAVEZ jr. . ¡CUALQUIERA! ¡Y' EL CAMPEÓN DEL MUNDO ENTERO! ¿DÓNDE' LA MERITOCRACIA AMERICANA? ¡Y' EL CAMPEÓN MÁS SIMPLE DE ANUNCIAR EN TODO IL MONDO!  ¡BOB ARUM ES cocido!!!

[GGARBELLI]

SEXY SERGIO MARTINEZ METTERA’ TUTTI KO, distruggerà qualsiasi pugile: PACQUIAO/ MAYWEATHER/ COTTO/ STURM/CHAVEZ jr. . QUALSIASI ! E’ IL CAMPIONE DEL MONDO INTERO! DOVE’ LA MERITOCRAZIA AMERICANA? E’ IL CAMPIONE PIU’ SEMPLICE DA PUBBLICIZZARE IN TUTTO IL MONDO ! BOB ARUM IS burn out=cocido=cotto=cuit!!!

[GGARBELLI]

Martinez will KO, destroy any boxers: PACQUIAO/ MAYWEATHER/ COTTO/ STURM/CHAVEZ jr. .ANYONE! He is the CHAMPION OF ENTIRE WORLD!!! WHERE IS THE AMERICAN MERITOCRAZY....HE IS THE MOST MARKETABLE FIGHTER IN THE WORLD...BOB ARUM IS burn out=cocido=cotto=cuit!!!

[eldiezmaradona]

Hey Bob Arum, Cut the Bull Sh*t and get your boy in the ring with Sergio. Stop beating around the bush. It's not always about money, do what's best for the sport. But then again a selfish mafioso like yourself only cares about your pockets

[eldiezmaradona]

This is why boxing is a f*ckd up sport. Sergio Martinez is the #2 ranked boxer in the world, yet Bob Arum claims Martinez isn't "marketable." Imagine the NY Yankees refusing to play the Florida Marlins because they aren't "marketable". Imagine Roger Federer refusing a match with a top ranked tennis player simply because he isn't "marketable." This is bullsh*t. In a REAL SPORT, one competitor faces the BEST competitor out there, to find out who's the best. But in boxing money replaces honor

[ANTPHRESSH89]

MARTINEZ WOULD BEAT ANY TOP RANK FIGHTER SERGIO MATINEZ IS A GREAT BOXER WITH THUNDEROUS JABS ^_^ AND GOOD RIGHT HOOKS AND LEFT HAND STRAIGHTS

[zloc2dabrain]

Martinez wud beat any top rank fighter

[VicRattlehead79]

I believe that Bob doesn't want Sergio to fight his fighters but also Lou D.(Sergio's promoter) should start promoting Sergio better.

[Pound4Pound409]

What makes you think that Julio jr is PPV material.. I agree with a lot of you people that bob arum is a top notch promoter.. But look at the point neither martinez nor Julio jr are ppv material.. Settle this fight for free on hbo after dark and fuck all this politics.. It's getting fucking annoying

[itzeyadig]

@Pound4Pound409 I know! It will get more views on regular HBO Championship Fights. The truth is Bob Arum will never, at least not anytime soon, put any of his fighters against Martinez because he is too good and he is on another level right now. Chavez Jr would be crazy to fight Martinez even though is probably the best fight out there for Martinez but it is not in Chavez best interest, he is still coming up and Martinez would kill him. They are just on two different levels. Bob Arum is smart.

[merksperk2]

@itzeyadig

Bob Arum is killing boxing.

[merksperk2]

@itzeyadig

Chavez has to fight Martinez after his non-mandatory title defense or else he will be stripped of his belt. Knowing Chavez's recent string of lackluster tomato cans, and being a tomato can himself, he would sooner drown himself than face Martinez in the ring.

[Jay4127]

@merksperk2 haha that is super true not knocking mexican fighters but chavez is a joke...LOL his skills is like zuccini hard on the outside soft in the middle lol

[amensupremera]

@itzeyadig Then why walk around calling yourself the champ if you are not willing to fight the best. This is what is f*cking up the sport. The best fighter has his crown stripped from him and a lesser opponent (who nearly all the experts recoginze would get killed by the real champion) gets to walk around calling himself the champ. Thats like taking a team that didnt make the playoffs and calling them the world champions. Jr's next fight is against Ronald (recently KO'd 2x) Hearns. What a fraud

[somaliland247]

Bob Arum just say u won't let him fight Manny because its not easy fight for manny

Man I met JJChavez jr in Texas and is a Great guy.. I have nothing but respect for him as a person and as a fighter.. It has nothing to do with him.. My own grandmother and grandfather being Chavez sr fans for years seen Julio jr fight zinc..they said why cant they put him in with a tomato can.. I said he is a tomato can. ..my granma said Sergio Martinez would tear jjc ass up.. Lo mata.. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see they are dodging Martinez

[OTKP]

he makes SO MANY EXCUSES FOR HIS FIGHTERS and his little BITCH SHEEPS just go with what ever he says

I guess he already making excuses ahead of time for not making Martinez vs Chavez Jr

[paulsinghnl]

he's a promotor who does not have Sergio, who is an exciting fighter, so he's gonna badmouth him like he does with Floyd. Sergio's not exciting? he KO'd Paul Williams, who was listed as P4P, he outboxed whoever u put in front of him.

Bottomline: Sergio's a threat who will blow his fighters out the water, so Bobby has to protect them by making the fight sound bad. Arum's posterboy getting his butt thoroughly whooped by Sergio.

What makes arum think Chavez jr is PPv material.. This is the same arum saying Mosley is the slick African amican boxer.. Is this the same arum saying that Mosley would be the toughest fight of manny career .. I smell fear covering up with .. Sergio is not a pvv attraction

[Pound4Pound409]

Clotty maragito were not ppv attractions .. And people still bought pvv with pacman of course in it.. Arum just making exuses not to put chavez in with Sergio .. Chavez better not be in ppv no one will buy it any how

[serpakovski]

Arum is right,Maravilla aint PPV attraction!

[OutsideTheRopes]

They're smart not to fight Martinez right now. That's asking for a beatdown. I wanna like Chavez Jr., But for now he's simply just a shell of his father. I hope his skills can improve.

@OutsideTheRopes People expect way too much simply because they have legendary fathers.

Example:

Michael Jordan and his son.

[OutsideTheRopes]

@PinoyZo1 Yeah that's true. Thats why I always believed not to step into a great mans shoes. Have you noticed that either the dad sucks, and the son is great, or the dad is great and the son is wack.

[PinoyZo1]

@OutsideTheRopes Or brother status having a good known one and the unknown/subpar fighters lol.

Ricky Hatton/Matthew Hatton

Manny Pacquiao/Bobby Pacquiao

Miguel Cotto/ Jose M. Cotto

Juan Manuel Marquez/Rafael Marquez

The only brothers who are both on above the other's are the Klitschkos.

[trollolololulz]

@PinoyZo1 I think you're not giving Rafa Marquez the credit he deserves. No way should his name be clumped in with the trash that is Bobby/Matthew/Jose. Rafa's respected all across the boxing community, he's had an excellent career.
