Sergio Martinez to spar with Antonio Margarito Empty
PostSubject: Sergio Martinez to spar with Antonio Margarito   Sergio Martinez to spar with Antonio Margarito EmptySun Sep 19, 2010 2:55 pm

There had been recent rumblings online that middleweight champion Sergio Martinez was being considered by Team Margarito and Garcia noted as much. Martinez suffered the first loss of his career against Margarito in February of 2000 on the undercard of the wild first battle between Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera but in an interesting turn of events the two men could now find themselves working with one another as they both head into huge bouts in their respective careers.

“I’m very close to Sergio Martinez’ camp and he is such a great person and they offered to help us out with whatever we need. I know that he is fighting Paul Williams, who is totally the opposite of Antonio Margarito, but he may be coming a couple days a week to camp. So more than likely we will be having Sergio Martinez as one of our sparring partners. We’ll have another four to five sparring partners but Martinez will be one of them. As of now that is what his coach and his team have already told me.”

Not sure what to make of this

Good for Tony, gets some sparring in vs a quick southpaw who will also use him as target practice

Lemme get ready for a freakish octupus like southpaw by sparring with Margo. Makes sense.

Is Martinez that confident he will defeat Williams or is Williams that unique that no one can match his style?

Williams and Margarito both have little defense and throw a ton of punches

Not a bad choice to spar with

BTW, still cant believe Williams-Margarito II hasnt happened

Had Williams lost that fight we would have seen a rematch.

PW and AM may fight with different lead heads (right, left), but theyre strategy on fight night is the same. Throw a lot of punches, take one to give one and block with their heads. The sparring would benifit both. Margarito with a quick south paw (well Sergio doesnt throw as much as Pac) and Maravilla with a tall guy that throws a lot. Paul will fight like he always has, Martinez will have to figure out how he will contain Pauls attack all fight long.
