Why are Pac/May expected to move up in weight but not Sexy Sergio?

[DrewWoodside]

Martinez looked superb last night. I think a sign he's finally receiving the P4P respect he deserves is all the haters who have recently popped up in response to him. However, with that said I think he should be held to the same standard as Pacquiao and Mayweather. If they are expected to move up in weight and fight JMWs and MWs, it's only fair Martinez be expected to fight Super Middle Weights. Is Martinez a small MW? Yes, but Pac and Mayweather are not big for their weight classes either.

A measure of a fighters P4P ability is being able to span weight classes.. I think Martinez' claim for the #1 and 2 P4P spots will be more credible once we see how he handles a Super Middle Weight. How do people feel about Martinez's responsibility and abilities above 160?

because f sergio moved up n weight he wud get KO'd bcuz he's a ****head who beats on eurobums, keeps his hands low like a n00b, n doesn't look where he's punching.

hence, sergio has 2 call out fighters 2 weight classes below him-- but what else do u xpect frm a bikeriding soccer player.

Drew,why are U gonna sit there & act like Floyd & Manny were not already jr middleweight champions??I got 1 question for U,if Martinez went up to 168 & beat someone like Codrington,would U be ok with that??Or maybe someone like Manfredo jr,that's acceptable,since were holding them to the same standard,correct??

only idiots think that pacquiao or mayweather are ducking sergio. he would have over a 20 lb weight advantage on fight night. theyd both weigh under 154, and sergio would weigh over 168. that would be a junior middle fighting a light heavy. that would be ******.

however, you can make a case for pacquiao's ******ed choice in mosley for his next fight. i place half of the blame on arum, half on pacquiao.

Pac nor Mayweather has fought anyone near Manfredo Jr's caliber. No disrespect to Manfredo, but he's terrible.

you are one ****** mother****ker if:

you think a 5'6 former flyweight who is fighting on his 8th or 9th division needs to go up to middleweight or its a duck...

Pac moved up in weight a few fights ago as well. You guys need to work on double standards.
