I don't think ANYONE in boxing period thought the same about Martin PRIOR to the fight. Sure he wasn't 25 anymore but he was still fighting and wining leading up to this fight. The calibre of opposition was weak but wining is the key thing here.
Some fighters turn old over night and I think this was the case with Martin. This doesn't take anything away from Montiel and I agree with the comment about it being one of the most dominant performances.
If you can direct me to any site, link or page that predicted a TKO win for Montiel or a dominant win for Montiel then I'll agree with you. I think for the most part people thought it'd be competative the whole way through.
The difference between your aguement and the comment made by Top Ranks commentators is that your saying it after the fact. Now unless you made those comments about Martin prior to the fight then you are unique and you have every reason to disagree.
