    Walking frames and walking sticks aren't going to cut it now. He needs a new pair of pins. His natural ones couldn't keep a bag of cotton off the floor.

    All joking aside, I don't know how he is going to get threw the rest of his life with those legs. I felt really sorry for him. It's like he just came back from Iraq after stepping on a landmine. I always knew soccer is bad for you knees, but that was really shocking to see.

    I can't watch the vid because my internet connection is shite.

    If Sergio wanted to continue his career he would have to wear those legs like the sprinter who killed his wife has. I doubt they would allow it in boxing though.

    Ah. Google Hugh Herr. He's the guy behind the robotic legs that take brain input to control. Very cool stuff. I think Martinez's boxing days are over. Whatever ligaments he's torn, it'll never be strong enough at his age anyways after repair.

    Martinez needs to retire ASAP. His knees were way too weak. Void refused to fight Martinez @ 150. Void will not fight Golovkin at 154. There is a chance Golovkin Vs. Cotto is in the works, but now Golovkin will fight Geale, then unify the titles by fighting Soliman. Golovkin will want Cotto ASAP. No wonder Martinez refused to fight Golovkin, would have been no contest. Martinez at his best would have beaten Cotto, but Martinez's knees just will never be what they used to be..............

    Put in any regular 39 year old in his place and they will look just as stiff.

    Oh please. Did you see hoe many times he slipped/fell to compensate for his knee? It was like watching a guy fight with one leg.
