Could a brace conceivably help anyone without a bad knee to begin with? I really don't know, but I do seem to remember Yuri Foreman wearing one, in his fight against Cotto, in New York:rolleyes:
This whole thing could be a simple case of lost in translation. What constitutes a brace. That pic of the thing Chavez is wearing is not a brace. I wore one of those when I played Volleyball. Another thing people ought to remember instead of shitting on Cotto is the fact that the NYSAC made the call not Cotto.
It may be convenient to just blame Cotto like he runs the commission but for lack of a better term its also just stupid. Hopefully they explain what the problem is.
Right, and that's what I assume Martinez wanted to wear here? It's the kind of thing you see on all sorts of athletes. I just can't see how the commission could justify banning Martinez from wearing the same thing they allowed Yuri Foreman to wear, how is that even remotely justifiable? I don't think it's unlikely that Cottos camp may have leaned on them into ruling this way at all, and I don't dislike the guy, or even see that so much as laying blame myself. Some fighters absolutely are bigger than the state commissions in these instances, it's not like a universal body in a legitimate sport, this is boxing:p
Lol you play Volleyball?
Im gonna back Martinez by KO. All this is just gonna geet him mad and Cotto wont be able to handle speed and power, his face will be a mess when the ref saves him.

Cotto is the home fighter. He is a New York regular. The first two initials of the NYSAC signify New York. Do the math.

Are you insinuating that Cotto is getting preferential treatment?
Re: NYSAC Wont Allow Sergio Martineze to wear a Knee Brace vs. Cotto.
It's a non-issue.
The NYSAC reversed its ruling and now will allow Sergio to wear the knee supports.
Like someone said, it had been the NYSAC's call in the first place, and not Cotto's. People need to get a grip.
They're not the classic maximum support braces. Here's an explanation of the different types of knee supports:

Non-issue over. On to the next topic of interest.

Who woulda thunk it. They get pointed out but Cottos people and are brought up on tonights new 24/7 and resolved within 30 minutes...that had to be edited prior to the ruling(s)
Now that's promotion :p Anything to get the sheep roaming...
watching a lot of stuff, I just cannot see Cotto taking this but def cannot wait for the bell. Baaaaa
