That is not strictly true. I am sure there was a pretty long line of middleweights willing to fight Martinez but Sergio chose to fight Cotto. Murray would certainly have rematched Martinez, Golovkin would have loved the chance to fight Martinez, Geale would have fought Martinez but Cotto brought the Dollar, and Martinez fought him.
