Miguel Cotto: "I Want Sergio Martinez @ MSG In New York"

:dance: :dance: :dance: Cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting. Two guys at a crossroads type fight both can retire any moment but still both very dangerous

If cotto wins, golovkin will never get his shot. I think martinez stops cotto though, and HBO will likely throw enough money at martinez to fight golovkin next. All they have to do is offer more money for Golovkin than anybody else

MSG theater, MSG basement, MSG, MSG rooftop. He's already fought there.

I know this fight is for the lineal world title and I don't think it really is. The lineal champ should be the best middleweight in the world and Cotto clearly is not that. Cotto recently lost two in a row at 154 and he never beat any 160 pounders. Sure, Cotto wants to fight in the garden which gives him the edge but even so the much bigger, better Martinez should win by KO. Whoever wins this fight I will accept as the lineal middleweight champ when they fight and defeat GGG and that will never happen.

Like two years ago I don't remember many crowding to fight Martinez... GGG and Quillin were.

Wasn't it in the theater though? Good call, Martinez-Macklin was in the MSG Theater.

Props to Miguel Cotto, this man Is the definition of a warrior. With Sergio"s layoff, Injury's and age, Cotto has a legitimate chance. It only takes one fight to get old and this just might be that fight for Martinez.

He's already fought there :lol1: Wasn't it in the theater though?

But at least Cotto isn't pulling a Floyd lol.

Cotto is the man because he will literally fight anyone. But he gets stopped in this one. He is too small and too chinny for a big, quick, athletic puncher like Sergio. Kudos for wanting the fight though. He didn't want this fight until Sergio had all these injuries and is toward the end of his career. Will he fight Golovkin if he beats Sergio? I doubt it.

There will be no Canelo fight after Martinez stops Cotto in dramatic fashion. Dumb move by Cotto.

No one ever mentioned Judah. Cotto knocked him out, there's no need to mention him. I had Clottey beating him, and I had Mosley a Draw. And I also scored Cotto-Trout a Draw. You had Cotto-Trout a draw while the judges had it deeply in favor of Trout. Doesn't that go against your argument about Cotto getting gifts in MSG?

Cotto's saying that Martinez routinely weighing in at like 157-158 shows he's not a true middleweight and that's a factor. Cotto knows he has no business at MW but the reigning champ happens to be as much of a MW as Cotto is a JMW. And seriously, the MSG thing is not a big deal. Cotto deserved the decision against Mosley without question, the Clottey fight was razor thin(I had the KD being the difference but prob wouldn't have argued too much w/ a Clottey decision) and Trout was probably too wide.

No one ever mentioned Judah. Cotto knocked him out, there's no need to mention him. I had Clottey beating him, and I had Mosley a Draw. And I also scored Cotto-Trout a Draw. I meant Mosley, not sure why I put Judah. I'm just saying these guys aren't getting robbed blind in MSG. If Martinez beats Cotto and deserves the decision, I don't doubt he'll get it.

I think martinez is all wrong for cotto but then again this is a old injury ridden sergio so who knows. I admire cottos balls though. Will definitely get tickets to this.

Yes because the judges in MSG always take Cotto's opponent's victories away :lol1: Trout got a way too wide decision, and majority say he beat Clottey and Judah. I don't think the judges will be necessary anyway. No one ever mentioned Judah. Cotto knocked him out, there's no need to mention him. I had Clottey beating him, and I had Mosley a Draw. And I also scored Cotto-Trout a Draw.

JCC Jr ain't exactly easy to miss.. Cotto makes it clear just how overrated Sergio is. Like two years ago I don't remember many crowding to fight Martinez...

Either my Spanish is that bad or I am pretty sure "Y eso es un factor" means "And that is a factor", meaning, Martinez supposedly weighing in 155-157lbs was factored into the selection. "And that's a fact." in Spanish would be "Y eso es un hecho." But like I said, my Spanish could be terrible, I don't think it's that bad though. You are correct, I translated literally the world "factor". Either way, I believe that it was a reference to Cotto thinking that Martinez walks around 155-157 and not a ref to his weight in on his prior/recent fights.
