    Martinez vs cotto needs to happen in 2012

    i KNOW SOME PEOPLE MIGHT SAY HELL NO OR ITS POINTLESS BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH .
    Fact is with floyd going to daycare jail
    Manny having no big name opponents to fight .
    Yes manny could fight marquez but honestly both know too much about each other and each of their fights has been more boring than the previous one .
    Bradley is out the question dude has done nothing at welterweight to even prove he deserves a big name fight
    Ortiz and berto are tied up together . Maidana would be nice but he neither has proved his worth at 147 .

    MY POINT IS THAT we need at least 3 ppvs per year to keep us in touch with the casual fans and potential new fans since PPVS Is the only boxing event they watch . Its not like the casuals watch hbo or espn .
    Cotto vs martinez are the only other 2 names that are close enough in weight and could hold a ppv and actualy put on a good show .

    Believe it or not martinez ko of paul williams may not have made him a household name but it sure got his a s s known to alot of people .

    Sergio is beloved on mma websites and even recognized by lots of young people on social sites .

    Which other cards do you think are PPV worthy in 2012 ?

      If they both agree to OSDT this will be easy work for Cotto.

        I'd watch it but there's better fights out there for both.

          That would be Cottos retirement. He would quit faster than Margarito made him quit in the first fight (plaster or not).

            Cotto would win for sure! We'll see if it ever happens though.

              hard to defend Cotto if Martinez moves back down to 154 and Cotto avoids him

                If cotto doesn't fight him cotto is officially ducking.

                That fight has to happen

                  Cotto seems like he be fine and would shamelessly do it. he did say in an interview awhile back that Martinez brings in no money. How often does someone even get Cotto to talk?

                    We have to face that none of the bigger names want anything to do with Martinez. The last guy that did was Pavlik (I do not think P Will is a big name) and you see what happened to him. Even though he was damaged from B Hop he got wrecked.
