Paulie never wobbled Cotto. It was a clash of knees. Foreman hit Cotto with a flush right on the chin, and absolutely nothing happened.
2 small? Sergio is like 5'10 and is really a 154lber. cotto 5'7 and just weighed in at 152 friday. soooooatsch
LoL.. These guys forget Martinez came up from Welterweight and is really at his best in the Jr Middleweight division.
In My Opinion Cotto is Stronger than martinez even if he weighed 147. Cotto Moved very well saturday! Looked like a totally diifferent fighter! He was very Slick against a bigger man! Sergio got beat by Margo. Sergio is bigger than cotto, and is very slick himself! This fight would be very close. Id say a Split Decision for either man! Then Again Sergio likes to pace himself in the middle rounds and turn it up in the later rounds which Cotto COuld tire out quickly if its at the PACE i assume it would be. (SUPER ****ING FAST NON STOP PUNCHING BY BOTH MEN)
The Sergio that got beat by Margo is not the same sergio we see nowadays. I think the fight will be more interesting than others but I got Sergio by late TKO. Great fight but Sergio imo has equally fast hands and more power to go with the better chin. He does keep his hands down thow and that can be a huge positive for Cotto if Sergio cant see Miguel's punches and react fast enough. Definitely a fight I wanna see though as a win for Cotto builds to his legacy and puts him in that elite P4P level he never got to because of Margo and Pac respectively. And a win for Sergio will give Martinez the publicity he has always wanted and the Name he needs to get the even bigger fights ie Floyd and Pac (probably still wont happen.) WAR, MARVILLA!!!!
Sergio is 36 years old and will be 37 by the time he has his next fight. Not everyone is Hopkins. Sergio's days at the top might be numbered for all we know. It's hard to say with people that age. They could get old overnight. Cotto should probably try to get this fight @155 or 156 so he can have a chance at the legitimate middleweight title. Should he win that, it would give him more leverage to lure either a Pacquiao rematch or a Mayweather fight. Before he risks fighting Martinez, though, he should probably go for a more easily winnable fight like Alvarez @ 154.
Martinez would **** him it would be the boxing equivilant of cotto getting his shorts pulled down and bent over. he would be bleeding from every orrifice
Martinez is too big and is the wrong fight for Cotto. I think he wins a UD. Cotto has to fight junior middleweights who are moving up from welterweight.
Didn't you see what Barker was able to do over the course of the fight before the stoppage? Do you think Cotto would do worse? Because that was hardly murder.
