    Not satisfied to facing No.3 ranked WBC middleweight contender, World Boxing Council Diamond middleweight champion Sergio Martinez (47-2-2, 26 KO’s) would like to face boxing’s biggest star Floyd Mayweather Jr next year if possible. Martinez is even willing to fight Mayweather at a slight catch weight but not below 152, which makes it unlikely that the fight can be made.

    However, if Mayweather does well against the hard hitting WBC welterweight champion Victor Ortiz in September, Mayweather may feel confident enough to pencil in Martinez for next year sometime, likely after Mayweather fights and beats Amir Khan.
