I think Martinez should deffintly be the favorite in this fight, but what happens if he's not the same?? What happens if he hurts his knee and is unable to continue, something like Yuri foreman. He's 40 years old coming off multiple injuries. Although If Martinez is healthy I think Cotto could be in for a tough night.
I remember hearing a little while ago Cotto said he doesn't have that many fights left in him. This would be a great win for cottos legacy would he retire if he won?
Good comeback fight for Martinez even though we don't know how well Cotto will be at middle. Payday that he is looking for but Martinez once said he will not fight past 40, would he retire after Cotto???
Martinez what would be next win or lose?
Cotto what would be next win or lose?
I'm not even sure if the fights official, I'm just wondering what you guys think this fight would do to the landscape of 160 and after math possibilities
Cotto gets knocked out, blames his trainer, hires someone else, beats a bum, everyone claims he's back to his best, and then he fights Alvarez and gets knocked out again.
If Martinez losses to Cotto he better retire.
IMO if Cotto wins then he's vindicated every loss (and messy split decision) as being drained. Even the ones where it doesn't make any sense. Even those.
Martinez wins and he just beat a fat Miguel Cotto coming off a win against a guy who made Wolak look like he got beat with a shovel.
Cotto and Canelo will fight this year regardless if both win or lose their next fights. As for Martinez, if his body breaks down again thats it for his career.
If Canelo loses to Angulo he should retire, no way he gets a shot at Cotto. It's one thing to lose to Sergio Martinez at 160... losing to Angulo who is considered a tune up to the almighty greatness that is ginger is far, far worse.
I think the fight stinks. How can Cotto be a worthy challenger for the middleweight world title when he lost two one sided fights in a row to welterweight Mayweather and Jr. middleweight Trout and he never beat a middleweight in his life? Martinez is living his dream of fighting a smaller fighter who has very little chance of beating him and making lots of money. Who ever wins the Martinez-Cotto fight will absolutely not fight the uncrowned middleweight champ, GGG. I would much rather see Martinez do his job as champion and fight GGG. I think GGG would KO Martinez and Cotto would not be the least bit interested in fighting GGG for the middleweight title.
Cotto's not a worthy challenger. This is a tuneup fight for Martinez after a year off recovering from his injuries. It's also a big money fight. And Golovkin is not the uncrowned champion, he's a contender. Nothing more. Besides, Martinez's promoter and manager have been explicit in saying that Martinez intends to fight Golovkin. Though if Cotto wins, no way he fights Golovkin.

Cotto wins he defends vs Floyd May 2015, loses he fights canelo
Serg wins I think he fights Rubio n ggg, loses I think he is done or maybe cotto rematch
Most likely if Martinez wins, he goes on to fight either Rubio or Golovkin. Cotto will probably rebuild against a low level opponent so he can fight Alvarez. If Cotto wins, he probably rematches Mayweather and Martinez probably retires.
Well, I think after the fight has concluded the bell will ring and the announcer will announce the result if it was a stoppage, either that or go to the score cards and announce the decision then both fighters will be checked by a medical physician in the back. After that they may have a post fight presser and both fighters go home and go to bed, your welcome.
lmao douche bag
