    But they know how deep the problem is so he might have made an educated decision as opposed to a guess

    Well my prediction (easy KO for Martinez) was wrong. But holy goddamn Sergio was as shot as any fighter I have ever seen barring James Toney, Evander Holyfield, and Roy Jones. Poor guy got the big fights too late and now it's over for him.

    Can't call it a cherrypick for Cotto because I don't think anyone could have expected that. Now we'll see if GGG gets the shot he's deserved for so long. I think the style matchup between him and Cotto would be good. More likely we'll see Alvarez vs Cotto and I won't complain.
