Mayorga over Martinez?

Makes me wish I like MMA. Damn you boxing promoters and casual fans

[..WaRSpencE..]

I don't understand why they just don't make Berto-Cotto at 154lbs instead..Mayorga does nothing but serve as an easy win for Cotto..

Vanes sucks..i wouldn't want that fight either way..but i guess the build up will be funny watching Mayorga get under Cotto's skin, and Cotto's reaction to the insults..

"Only ones who respect Cotto, are his own kids" -Mayorga

Lmao!!.

yeah man, i was hoping cotto told arum 2 go **** himself and fight berto at 154. mayorga shouldnt be talking about respect because all he does is talk trash and get knockedout. only vargas' bumass lost 2 him wwhen he bad outhed fernando.

Garbage

Another ridiculous matchup. We already know that Cotto will win by KO. I don't understand how Mayorga even qualifies after being gone for such a long time pursuing MMA and then coming back to beat a no name. Mayorga is one of the worst and sloppiest fighters out there. Give the fight to a top contender. This name recognition is also the reason that Mosley got Pacquiao instead of Marquez. Ridiculous.

THIS A DAMN GOOD FIGHT AND YOU CAN'T SAID COTTO IS GOING TO WIN .....BECAUSE MAYORGA IT'S NOT A BAD FIGHTER ....I THINK MAYORGA IS BETTER THAN MARGACHEATO......

[Plaster...Sad.]

I don't take Mayorga too lightly. He is a live dog and has a great chin. But I will have more fun watching the press conference than more than anything. Cotto has never had to deal with a crazy sht talker before like this. Should be fun.

Cotto would beat Vanes, easily.

Mayorga would atleast provide entertainment.
