    I was going into this fight pretty neutral, being a big fan of both but wow Cotto's making it hard for me to not want to see him get spanked in there...War Martinez

    Won't be a problem. Martinez can go toe to toe with Cotto. Martinez is the hardest puncher Cotto has ever faced. Martinez has been in with some big guys and has a decent chin.

    Martinez in the 7th on cuts.

    I don't see what everyone is crying about. So they both have to stand on their own two knees, seems fair to me. It's not like anyone is asking for some unfair advantage.

    Martinez claims that his knee is 100% healthy-so whats the big deal?It's not like Cotto is going to hit the Prima Donna on his knee ffs.
    I hope Cotto knocks this dude into next week.

    Hmmm, the power thing is a pretty good point. Can't it be said though that Cotto has faster hands than Pavlik/Chavez, so he may be able to hit Sergio cleaner and more often? Is Cottos left hook to the body a potential factor here?

    Martinez didn't do so well against Margarita!!!

    Many times Martinez leaned into Jr. without much lateral movement and Jr. pretty much just kissed him. He didn't start throwing until the Championship rounds and with great effect!

    I do not see Cotto getting mesmerized by Martinez's movement....he will get disrupted with stiff jabs, pressed with right crosses and pounded with left hooks to the body.

    Expect to see Cotto sit down on his body shots of which he has not done the past few years.

    In regards to the knee brace.....Martinez has been saying all along he is 100% so what is with the ploy / prop coming in with a brace!!!

    Cotto is gonna **** Martinez, who is nowhere near 100%. At 40 n multiple surgeries...agsinst a strong healthy cotto? Come on. Forget the bull**** ****. Martinez can't even train right at this point. He's flabby. Cotto wins n it won't be that great cuz ggg and Chavez will walk right over top of cotto. The champ is small for a mw and he's old n not healthy n cotto taking him at this point is a great business move. I don't think cotto deserves the fight but he's got it n he will walk away mw unified lineal champ. N then retire. Or cash out agsinst canelo.
