The WBC\u2019s top rated 154-pounder had his sights set on a Mexican Independence Day show down with Mexican star Saul \u201cCanelo\u201d Alvarez but that might not come to fruition any time soon. \u201cCanelo and I would be a big fight at STAPLES Center. The place would be full of Mexican and Armenian fans. His style and my style go together perfectly and would give the fans the fight that they want to see,\u201d said Martirosyan. Indications are that Alvarez will not face the Glendale, California, based fighter this year. With that news, Team Martirosyan is moving on and there are plenty of options in the loaded junior middleweight division. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Martirosyan\u2019s manager Steve Feder indicated that Alvarez won\u2019t face Martirosyan until it is forced by the WBC. \u201cWe can\u2019t keep wasting time on Alvarez. We thought we would get \u2018Canelo\u2019 in September but he won\u2019t fight us until he has to and even then he will try to find a way out. I don\u2019t blame him. If I was his manager I wouldn\u2019t want him to fight Vanes either,\u201d said Feder.<\/p>\n<p>WBA champion Austin Trout, Miguel Cotto, IBF champion Cornelius \u201cK9\u2033 Bundrage, WBO champion Sergiy Dzinziruk and Sergio Martinez are all on Martirosyan\u2019s wish list, \u201cVanes has a history with Austin Trout in the amateurs. We would like that fight. We know Cotto is already committed to fighting Margarito so that is out for now. \u2018K9\u2032, Sergiy and Sergio Martinez are all guys would we love to fight,\u201d Feder revealed.<\/p>\n<p>Martinez recently said that the time has passed on facing Martirosyan and that the fight doesn\u2019t make sense anymore. Martirosyan finds it funny that Martinez would make that statement and then agree to fight Darren Barker, \u201cHow can Sergio say it doesn\u2019t make sense to fight me but he will fight Barker who no one knows in the United States?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Family-Secret-Forris-Day-Jr\/dp\/B004GLZ4YG\/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1309134704&amp;sr=1-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11987\" style=\"margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;\" title=\"family secret ad pic\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/family-secret-ad-pic.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"143\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.authorhouse.com\/BookStore\/BookDetail.aspx?Book=232300\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11989\" style=\"margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;\" title=\"boxing interviews ad bio\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/boxing-interviews-ad-bio1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"143\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/?page_id=1371\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-11990\" style=\"margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;\" title=\"advertise header2\" src=\"http:\/\/ringsidereport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/advertise-header2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"143\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Undefeated junior middleweight Vanes \u201cThe Nightmare\u201d Martirosyan (30-0, 19KO\u2019s) is looking to secure a major fight this fall.
