    Cotto beat an injured Martinez not the top P4P Martinez...and he never fought at middleweight again. Not even last night. What a bitch pussy!

    Cotto beat the man, it was only after that people realized he was not the same fighter. Give Cotto some credit.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Martinez' injuries and surgeries were well known after the Murray fight even as far back as the Chavez Jr fight. Here's an article:
    Injuries will likely keep Sergio Martinez from fighting for rest of 2013
    This was explored in detail during the Cotto v Martinez 24/7 episodes before the fight.
    Roach and Cotto even tried to prevent Martinez from being able to wear a soft supportive knee brace into the ring for the fight. They CLEARLY knew they were fighting damaged goods as did anyone paying attention to the lead up to the fight.
    So don't give me the "he beat THE MAN" crap. He beat A man with one leg...

    The article I posted the link to AND the 24/7 were from BEFORE the Cotto fight not after.

    I love that everyone predicted Cotto would murder Martinez in that way, and had absolutely no interest in the fight before watching.

    I called it a Cotto KO for the prediction contest.

    It should have come as no surprise...but boxing fans can be a bit thick when it comes to logic, reasoning and critical thinking.

    Why did Martinez take the fight, then?

    I read your post that to mean you deny that Martinez had injuries and surgeries and that you dispute that it was common knowledge that he was in less than perfect condition for the year or two leading up to the Cotto fight...

    He took the fight for money because he made peanuts in the sport and needed a payday or two before leaving. Let's not confuse that with him still being "THE MAN".

    Cotto fought 4 rounds against a guy that came in flat after being weight drained with a catch weight...after a year off and holding the strap hostage..but he needs a vacation now before he will fight Canelo? to my knowledge he wasn't even injured, just contract hunting.. Pfft.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Eh he wont even fight the man guy at the weight now so i don't know GGG getting the Hagler treatment. Now with this next fight and god knows how long it will be till GGG can get a shot at Lineal title. I mean not like GGG not been fighting every mw he can just sucks for the guy really.

    After Trout, most people on here thought Cotto was done, and didn't feel that a win over Delvin Rodriguez would offer anything to beat Martinez.

    Yeah that's what I said in my previous post. Boxing fans are dumb.

    Go back farther and many said he was done after Pac man.
    Apparently some of us don't want to take the reality pill. Not U, just saying....
    However:
    Catch weights are (now) apart of our sport. One would have to be an ass out hypocrite to call Cotto on requesting a certain weight and not Floyd or Pac.
    To be Angry at him for a MW title, then so, too should we be for Pac making history fighting for a JMW belt he never earned not defended.

    And that Martinez excuse is really imo is pussified.

    20 years ago fighters commonly fought with injuries...and never cried, bitched or moaned to the media outlets of their day about it.
    Frazier fought with a bad retina, Pryor did too. Julian Jackson fought McClellan II with an injured vertebrae and a detached retina...but we didn'thear those warriors bitch and moan about it. SIx days before Holmes vs Norton, Holmes tore a tendon in his bicep, yet he scrapped like an alley dog trying to get to fuck the neighborhood bitch in heat.

    Because of that .......fans never defended their losing fighter with injury excuses.
    Martinez got his ass whooped by Cotto, point blank or he should have stayed his injured butt in hospice care.

    Cotto= warrior.


    And now the old dog wants Canelo?
    Cotto=warrior.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    Cotto = Warrior ? *














































    * See footnote #





















































    # as in prima donna - as in check the really small print @































































    @ Warrior - Small Puerto Rican Guy, likes to wear gaudy pink shorts and circa 1992 tribal tattoos. Used to moan about being made to drop below a divisional weight by opponents and now does exactly the same thing while avoiding the man to beat in the division, and yet holding onto the belt, less his colourful shorts fall down
