Sergio Gabriel Martinez vs. Miguel Angel Cotto RBR

Round 1

Martinez comes out and feels out with a few right jabs up on Cotto's third eye region. Low left jabs by Cotto. Martinez is angling left, keeping his left glove up by his chin to block Cotto's jabs and 1-2s. Right jabs by Martinez. BIG LEFT HOOK BY COTTO. Martinez wobbled!! Martinez is rushed into the ropes, Cotto stepping aside to cut off his escape, nearly corralling him into a corner. Martinez jumps laterally, seeking an exit. More hooks by Cotto, and chopping rights. Martinez DOWN!! Cotto rushes in with left hooks and right hands!! Martinez tries ducking and rolling with the shots but takes most of them across the hairline, his balance affected by each. Martinez down again. Up and DOWN AGAIN IMMEDIATELY as Cotto barrels into him with a powerful left hook, mostly a push but ruled a knockdown. Martinez is on his bike in the last few seconds!!

10-6 Cotto
