So will HBO still call Martinez the Middleweight Champ?

Since he no longer has any ABC belts, just that magazine belt they don't like

"They can match whoever they want below me [for the vacant belt], but in my view, that winner can't truly call himself a champion."

of course not. Though max has strayed from his roots he does when discussing divisions (when HBO does their fighters in a division graphic), he does refer to lineal champs. He damn better say martinez is the lineal champ.

If Max commentates his next fight I am sure he'll call Marvilla the man at 160lb.

Sell out Max.
