Comments Thread For: Martinez Survives Final Round To Decision Chavez Jr.

[Ring Leader]

That 12th was insane i couldn't stop shaking for 5 min after the knockdown but the first 11 (although u could maybe argue chavez won the 8th and 11th) rounds were all sergio's. I wonder how the chavez fans are feeling right now.

Martinez won 1-11 easily.

Both guys showed a lot of heart and I give them both props!

Martinez could have easily coasted all of the 12th round and played it safe but instead he chose to keep on fighting, even after he got hurt he wasn't really clinching he just kept on punching just like Marquez after he gets hurt.

Props to both Martinez and Chavez, good night for boxing!!

I'm looking forward to more of Chavez's fights after this the kid has absolutely NO quit in him.

Tell me, when has Floyd been knocked down/rocked badly by a slow, unskilled chump?

You obviously never watched his fight with Shane Mosley? Mosley was so far gone that even that guy from the contender was competitive with him.

Damn! Floyd got his ass SONNEEDDD BADDDDD!!!!!! DAAAAMMMMNNNNN HE GOT EXPOSEDDDDD!!!!! OHHHHHHHHHHH

Or not... because he dominated the rest of the fight....

Ya, stop being an idiot. I'm not a fan either way between Chavez or Martinez, but you are either being ******, or you were too poor to buy the fight.

Martinez showed he has the heart of a champion. Fought back when he was hurt like never before and never gave up. Also shown he has a good chin. Taking bombs like that from a 180-185 pound man throwing sledge hammerish type shots and still didnt put him away. Viva Sergio Martinez

Sergio was running the last four rounds, what heart?? Sergio said he was gonna ko him yet he was the one that almost got koed. He punched chavez 1000 times and Chávez was swelling but never hurt. He hit Sergio 5 times and almost koed him!!

JONES is right mang, Chavez KNOWS deep in his heart:

1. that Sergio can't hurt him

2. that he can KO Sergio

HE was smiling in the end and that told the whole story.

HE was disrespected before the fight but was RESPECTED AFTER the Fight

just wow, what a fight !chavez wasnt ready martinez did very well, for 11 rounds, chavez wasnt agressive enough didnt cut off the ring like he shouldve and couldve, and rt when he had martinez going he'd ;let off my heart and soul was with chavez he indeed lost the decision, but he embarrassed martinez you dont lose the championship rounds and you certainly dont get Knocked through the ropes and barley survive if your what martinez and his fans THINK he is,
Chavez needs more practice technique and experience, but he proved he can ko this guy and despite his shortcomings he is made of far superrior heart and soul
.Chavez Jr u lost but you made us proud you knocked that bicht through the ropes and embarrased his gay ass and his followers!!!!Keep at it take some easy fights and hone your craft and you can stop this guy just like MARGARITO DID.
Chavez took a shiat on martinez magnificent performance beleive it dudes, A late round and especialy a final round knockdown in boxing is a cardinal sin!you cannot look great suffering a last rnd knockdown and almost knockout!

What I saw was that if Junior moves to 168 he is a KO waiting to happen, or at least a TKO. And why? Simply because he gets hit way to much by an elite fighter.
