    Lame lame lame.

    First it was okay for everyone to avoid Williams because he was "Too tall" and now that Martinez beat him, Martinez is now "Too big." Pathetic! If you can make the weight, you have just as much a right to fight in the weight class as anyone else. Fuck these protective fanboys and their excuses.
    Sergio Martinez last fight at jr middle came in Feb 2009 against Kermit Cintron. If he and Cotto were to fight at 154 he would have to really draw himself down, I think it would be a good competitive fight with the edge going to Sergio. I think its a possibility but Sergio would have to give up a lot of the share of the purse to lure Cotto to the table. The reason I think its a great fight for Cotto because if he loses its looked at as fighting a guy much bigger than you and considered by many to be #2 in the world. Cotto would still have the payday against Margarito to end his career on.
