    He's making money. Him and his people knew his knees weren't up to it coming into this fight but this is a big pension payday for him. You can't blame him. He hasn't got the movement he once had and is getting wobbled by punches he wouldn't have taken pre injuries.

    I feel bad being so negative because Cotto looks great.

    Wow. Cotto is a brutal fucking bastard when he wants to be. Superb performance. That was career defining start to finish.

    In a historial look at the boxrec record it is. But he beat up an invalid. He'll still lose to Mayweather again, even Alvarez when he eventually fights him. Watch him call Mayweather out.

    I was terribly off on this one. Cotto was sharp. Never would have imagined Cotto had the faster hands. But Sergio took to long to get his feet under him to throw. Wide step with the lead foot, can't punch. Wide step with the trail foot, finally he can. Too late.

    Martinez has never recovered from the 12th round of the Chavez fight

    You could see from the off that Martinez had little movement and that he had no way fight in his usual style. In fact, I don't think Martinez should have been fighting seeing how weak his movement was. His style is all about being unorthodox, with movement, and landing hard shots with the power from the legs. I don't think I saw a power shot land. I don't give Cotto much credit for that, he picked his way to a title, and most would look good against this 39 year old Martinez.

    Step up Cotto and beat a fighter in his prime for ooh maybe the first time in half a decade. I feel sorry for Martinez, but he shouldn't have fought. He must have known his condition, he is smart. Little credit for that.
