he says his shoulder injury has healed and is 100 percent, but about his knee, he says that he still cant run on it yet . The fight is what? 3 months away. Without the classic Sergio movement, which is a huge part of his game is he is at a great disadvantage, I don't know which Sergio is showing up might be a guy getting a payday on one leg. all bets are off on this one as far as I'm concerned.
Sergio confident of beating Cotto on one leg well when you consider Cotto has only one arm the left maybe its even.
He was talking so much **** about Cotto. No excuses. if you cant fight you shouldn't have signed on the line.
F#ck his excuses. Shouldn't have made the fight if this is the case. Unless Sergio is hobbling around, I'm still giving Cotto credit if he gets the win and/or looks good. I'm also giving cotto credit just for taking this fight in the first place.
of course hes not why else is he only a -250 agaisnt cotto? sergios even mentioned that this is his last fight if prime sergio existed(chavez jr) he would be a -650, the same as he was against dzinzurik
I think Sergio is going too try and use his size to KO Cotto minimal movement and an early KO. He wont be able to move much the knee is ****ed. If it becomes a war of attrition Martinez is on one leg Cotto need to roughhouse and survive the early onslaught I think Martinez can only go toe to toe with some movement. Martinez trying to get paid and retire unless the Knee responds in 90 days. Cotto isn't the most durable guy we shall see.
I just hope leading up to the fight...it doesn't get called off!!! I want to see Martinez back up all the trash talk...I still think Martinez will end up belly up!!!
I read that his knee wasn't 100% but he was using alternate training methods to compensate. I don't think he's trying to make excuses.
Is standing in the pocket 'running like hell' to you? Do you even know what running means because Haye did none of it.
