Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Expects Canelo To Pick Miguel Cotto

[Boskop]

Cotto-Alvarez would be sweet Cotto did pretty good against Floyd and he would be a good matchup stylewise.
Sergio should take a Margarito rematch

[PulpFriction]

Sergio must still be in a coma after Chavez. Does he really think Canelo is looking for a safer option than himself??? Sergio can't handle Cotto, not to mention Canelo. Sergio holding his hands at his side, would get destroyed and stopped by Canelo. When Chavez decided to punch, he hurt Sergio with every punch, running out of time in the last round. Canelo would be a different fight, not lasting long. Canelo would be dropping bombs on him from the opening bell, and stop Sergio by round 3. Period! Sergio can't dance around and hold his hands at his waist and live to tell about it, with Canelo OR Cotto. He's delirious.

Haters gon hate

Should we be upset with that??? If Cotto beats Trout, it's easily the best fight at 154 and the fight that could lead Canelo to Floyd.

Why u gotta hate bro?

Tha hell you talking about?

[S@rgentKO]

Can somebody explain to me, how you Martinez fans, call Jr. a bum, but guve full credit to Martinez as if he just beat Carl Froch or something like that?

Martinez has fought 3 cab drivers in a row(well 2 cab drivers and a decednt fight in Mcklin).

Martinez has fought people with no timming at all, or way slower than him. As soon as he fights somebody with timming hell get his ass handed to him.

Because he had 20 lbs on Martinez. Same reason why people give Pac credit for beating Margarito.

lol don't be foolish. Resume's mean ****.

There is a reason Cotto is on every fighters hit list. K9 wants to fight him (lol). Trout wanted a fight and got it. Canelo wants to fight him now. Floyd wanted a fight and fought him. Pacquiao was dying to fight Cotto again. Martinez has been chasing him. Mayweather probably wants a rematch.

He's not feared at all. The fighters know whats up. They know he's low risk and very high money. The reason is because he's been KOed twice in brutal fashion, he's taken a beating over his career. He eats punches. His defense is suspect. It's an easy choice. The performance against Mayweather is being blown out of proportion. If he fights Martinez he gets knocked out in 6 rounds.

I have to disagree I believe Cotto's defense is a lot better than people think. Not great but it is good depending on the style of his opponents. Margarito and Pacman are High volume pressure fighters which is Cotto's kryptonite. In the rematch with Margarito, Cotto adjusted with the help of his new trainer by clinching, turning, and pushing Margarito outclassing him and obviously taking less damage than the first fight. With Clottey he fought with one eye. Mayweather's connect rate against Cotto was one of the lowest he ever had, yea he almost got knocked down for getting sloppy in round 12, but he gave may a tough fight even money admitted this. Cotto is not Chavez, Miguel can mix it up, Wether is boxing, brawling or even counter punching. He knows how to Cut the ring off, his timing with the jab is one of the best in the game Bottom line This will be a tougher fight than most people think.

He should look at this way.. better chance of Mayweather fighting him now if Canelo isnt available for him.
