And age advantage 👍

One thing that really impresses me about Martinez. Most boxers want to work exclusively on the outside. When they get inside they just clinch and wait for the ref to break them. Not Martinez. He's willing to keep his hands moving at all times. Even when he's tied up. If he has a free hand he's trying to hurt the other guy. If there's a way to put his hands on the other fighter he's going to do it. He fights the full round every round and he's always moving his hands. What a fighter. And he's not the type of boxer that just wants to score points. He wants knockouts. He wants to hurt the other guy. God bless Sergio Martinez.

Yo vi ganar a Sergio por 2 o 3 puntos, pero creo que si Maravilla no hubiese perdido esta pelea, nunca hubiésemos visto ese TREMENDO KO en la revancha, que fue KO del 2010 y quedo 6º en la historia del boxeo, entre los mejores nocaut de la HISTORIA!

The only experienced judge ruled it a draw hmmmmm

Thank you so much for posting this. I am really looking forward to watching it again.

Classic fight! I miss watching these warriors.

It was a close fight, but I gave it to Martinez. This was the fight that got me into boxing. I love it now, and Martinez is my favorite fighter. It's a shame he got famous at such an advanced age. We only have a few years left of Maravilla! And what a shame about Paul Williams. :( I'm just happy that he seems to have accepted everything that has happened to him. He's always smiling and joking, from the videos I've seen. A true champion! These two put on a show and made a fan that night. :)

dos grandes boxeadores pero el combate es para Sergio martinez .saludos desde marruecos

Martinez had one of the prettiest, fan friendliest styles I've ever seen, I don't know why he wasn't promoted more. Australians loved this guy when we found out about him, but it was near the end of his career when he fought Julio César Chávez Jr. Great fighter though

I can't see neither of these guys beating Hagler, nor even giving him problems.

What a war! 114 or 115-113 either way are good scores but 119-110??

Gotta respect both of these guys. Williams took a lot of hard right hooks and kept coming and Martinez, with Williams' pressure was able to keep himself together for the whole fight. Great fight.

thanks for the video, couldn't find this fight anywhere

martinez vs mayweather would sell...

This was boxing at it's best, but holy shit it was just fight fight too. These were some real HARD HARD punches that were thrown here. How the hell they went as all out for the whole fight is mesmerizing. Marinez had an INSANE Check hook.

Fuck yea dude! awesome fight! thanks for posting this as one video instead of it being in 10 parts.

sad thing with P.Will is that if he learned how to used his height, he wouldve been even more scary. It's unfortunate that Steward couldnt have got to him at some point.

Cómo se pegaban estos dos, velocidad potencia y buena resistencia

Thanks uploader for teriffic fights on your channel :D

Williams great talent...amazing stamina for his height..could have given great fights

it was a close fight. it was a draw but i can see how either man would have won by 2 rounds. NOT MORE THAN THAT- but u can see how martinez found the left hand the knocked paul out

This fight with Cotto vs Mosley are two classic.......but for some reason not so well known and super-appreciated by everybody.

Hell for leather, crazy ass fight. Williams didn't use his physical advantages, or roll with the punches at all - hard to match his work-rate though. Their rematch several months later was a shocker - didn't expect that to happen.

I can’t lie , I like Paul William but Sergio landed a lot of clean shots I think he won by a little

What a fight

What a fight. Fuck I miss Paul Williams. Boxing needs guys like him. He's great for the sport.

Absolute monster of a fight Paul had a lot of entertaining fights. Felt so bad when he hurt himself on his motorcycle.

Martinez was the only man to KO Paul Williams. (2010-11-20.) This man deserves respect !

That is why when I watch boxing matches, I turn the volume down real low...mainly because of the bias by the commentators in favor of their television network fighters.

Martínez was a damn good fighter so skilled yet he wasn’t afraid to mix it up at times.. he was fast elusive and had underrated power he also had a good chin. Williams was great as well tall long althetic good chin too and very active

Martinez clearly won this fight. Paul Williams was a good honest fighter but was overhyped as hell. He got badly beat by Lara too and got gifted big time in that fight.

The best fight of all time

One of the best fights i seen. This fight turned on to martinez. hell of a fighter

I agree, he showed so much heart in all his fights

Williams needs to be in our Prayers now , there is no trash talking these days from him .

119-110, "I'd say he was blind. WHO's kidding whom"? I must say that this is my 2nd view of the fight & it was closer than I recalled. I still think Martinez won but only by 2 rds - his KD of Williams in the 1st was a crusher. PW's KD of SM was a glancing top of the head punch as SM was off-balance & Sergio appeared fine, while PW was dazed, having gt caught flush & sailed into the ropes. Draw? Can't be too irritated w/ that score but BOTH of the other scores are off-the-mark; the 119-110 judge frm NJ shld have bn fined/suspended and sent back to "Scoring a Fight: 101".

Good fight Paul Williams was a beast Sergio was too

How could they stayed up?... both legends.

i love paul great person great fighter great career. i hope u a miracle recovery.

It’s crazy to think about how different things could’ve been if a few things went differently. If Pavlik doesn’t get sick and fights Williams we probably never see this or the second fight. It just a chain reaction from that point how different history could be.

el mejor boxeo en la actualidad ase rato que no veia un boxeo tn verdugo martinez procer

Nobody saw but I gave them a standing ovation from my office.

yeah, i know stylistically they are not similar but in many other ways the comparison is fair. No Paul did not apply the same craft that Hearns did but he made up w/ it w/ his activity and willingness to engage. they both were def at the top of their division and had a unique ability to fight at many diff weights w/o compromising their abilities

This was a great fight,these 2 men were really slugging. I'd already seen Williams up close in his fight with the great Winky wright and Williams was very impressive in that fight as well. But this was the first time id ever seen Martinez fight i was very very impressed with his performance. He could've easily won this fight but Williams constant pressure and activity carried the day for him! Both men deserved to win,both put on a great show for everybody that night!

i wasnt telling i was asking. and as for lampley i do my best to ignore him and manny. i really only listen when RJJ talks cuz it seems he doesnt discredit any fighter. and i do agree dat they didnt really credit martinez enough. both great fighters and i loved every second of the fight and wished there would b a 3rd 1.

Martinez just held the whole last round. The ref never said sh!t

Other than the obvious Martinez nut-hugging, this was a GREAT fight 👍

fight of the year

This was a good fight. Both men are equals and champions.

I think that the rematch proved who the better fighter was

I think because his style of training works so well with them. Lewis, McClellan, Hearns....

Sometimes a fight ends in a draw, in this case I would vote for giving both guys a win.

The 119-110 was crazy. Yes , Paul won the fight but that was a ridiculous score

This fight proved Dmg needs a metric in boxing scoring. this aint the armatures

I dont think any one that is considered a boxing expert thinks otherwise, it was clear win for Martinez

This is the first match I've seen of Sergio Martinez; he boxes like a true pugilist. Not much of a Williams fan since he was allowed a robbery against Erislandy Lara but both are boxers I can respect regardless.

this loss was a blessing in disguise for Sergio. It gave him a fight with a big name fighter Kelly Pavlik and a bigger fight w/ Paul Williams in the rematch w/c to led to a big finish and became the KOTY. And now with a impressive win against Chavez Jr. this Saturday will certainly put him to stardom and will be able to get more big fights but in 154lbs

Really good fight

The guy at the end was cool. Some nigga was like "calm down you cant change the world nigga"

Beautifull

say what you will about PAUL WILLIAMS- his spirit is remarkable.every time i see that interview with him in the wheel chair after the accident inspired.How he keeps such high spirits is crazy.Thing is that his spine isn't severed he said its just bruised which means he may walk again. GOD DONT MAKE MISTAKES. as for the fight PAUL doesn't fight as tall as he should and he gives up height when he throws sometime but the pressure he brings is ridiculous

One of the coolest first rounds.

Martinez is 34 yrs old and nobody is saying he is old and should retire after this.

que batalla de ambos impresionante

Maravilla!

Una pelea completamente desorganizada, Martinez con los puños abajo todos el tiempo, parece una lucha libre, de la República Dominicana Antonio.

Williams had a bit more in the tank and took the last couple which sealed it for me. Great trading and tactics by both, after the first 4 rounds i was thinking how did Martinez not get this one but Williams turned it round. Fairplay to him, such a sad story as you would expect he would still be competing at the top today.

For me are in favor of Martinez: 1,2,3,8,10,11, FOR SURE.....And Arguably Round 12...... But watch Round 12.....Martinez landed 2 great power shots...and the rest of the round was tie for me....But for those 2 big punnches of Martinez....That round should be for him..... I dont give Martinez 10 round....but it is also another close round to argue!!!!.... THIS SHOULD BE AT LEAST A TIE!...For both Fighters!

Great fight

Great, great fight from two legends very close but I gave it to martinez. Can not believe that the judges gave it 110-119. Martinez fought like a lion was gutted for him but I thought it was admirable the way he handled the loss and when max told him the score.

Beware the bearers of deceitful speak and their empty promises. There is much pain - and soon, greater pain- but still time. The good Word is faithful and true - seek it. Conduit closing.

True, there is a difference. Maybe "later" is good for guys like Martinez !? well good fight, good fighters.

I know. I'll be watching the fight later and I bet he talks about Martinez having amazing power which will completely contradict his statements in this fight.

I'm so fucking tired of Jim Lampley. He's always trying to push some kind of agenda. This fight was a very close fight and yet all that Lampley talks about is the good things that Martinez does. At times he flat out ignored hard punches that Williams landed. Then after calling a biased fight all night, he tries to lead ledderman into saying Martinez won. Ledderman gave a good score for this fight. And then before the fight was even over he was already setting up the conversation to be about a robbery whenever he was talking about the "American" judges and how Martinez was from Argentina. Lampley is a fucking disgrace. I don't know how anyone takes him seriously. He does this kind of bull all the time. I can not wait for his ass to be gone. Kellerman needs to take over now.

The most blatant example of HBO bias I have personally witnessed was the first Chavez/Taylor fight. In the last round when Chavez knocked Meldrick down the whole commentating team went dead quiet and said nothing. I have a feeling Lampley bets on the fights and thats part of the reason for the bias.
