I also think the injuries played a big part. Pity they couldn't agree on weight for Cotto, would have been fun to watch. He was a pleasure to watch and a marvel at times. Apart from Floyd he was never really beaten decisively. A great fighter and a definite first ballot hall of famer.
Marquez was known for pricing himself out of big fights
I'm glad the Cotto fight didn't happen because it would've been brutal
You're talking about a former featherweight champion in his mid 40s
Fighting a former middleweight champion in his mid 30s.... Marquez gets stopped.
