Comments Thread For: Cotto Would Not Rule Out Facing Sergio Martinez

[GRUSTLER]

Please don't waste my time with this. Do I need to pull those press row scores showing Pac Bradley a one sided rout, JMM 3 a textbook draw?

I'm not debating the Bradley fight. I actually feel like Bob Arum put the fix in but that's a whole other argument/debate. JMM/Pacquiao 3 could have went to JMM and no one would have been upset about it. Actually it was quite the opposite with people being upset that Marquez got robbed. Manny even had to curse his fello Pinoys out for saying and thinking he lost. Martinez is leaving no doubts.

OK we're on the same page on how it went. It's a little disingenuous to say he lost both fights. Him winning both of them is more justifiable than losing both.

Don't give me your su****ions, I asked you for proof of a fight night limitation. You brought it up, not me, and now you're backpedaling like Khan.

For once you're right, no doubt DLH was trying to cherrypick a midget. Blew up spectacularly.

Yeah, Oscar cherrypicked (that was the intention) on a guy who ended up weighing more than him on fight night (likely because of a fight night weight agreement) same way Pac tried to cherrypick on a near 40 year old Marquez by making him move up two weight classes.

Honestly, does it seem logical to you for a guy who used to fight at middleweight to come down to 145 and only rehydrate 2 pounds?

No but he'd talked about his special diet, and how they were in the 140s weeks in advance iirc. Mismanaged his weight, what can you say. Any theory you have better pass my 4 hard criteria.

They chose JMM because Cotto would not agree to another catch weight before the 3rd and 4th rematch(es) with JMM. Also, JMM was the bigger money fight. Margarito was suspended for a year, came back and had a competitive fight with a no one. Williams was a much tougher fight than Margarito. So was Kelly Pavlik.

Was JMM the tougher opponent for Pac yes or no? You got people here who said team Pac ducked Bradley (a fighter most people believe he beat) to fight JMM (a fighter most people believe beat him in the 3rd fight). I mean, how ******ed is that?

No doubt JMM was the tougher opponent. Team Pacquiao mainly fought him because he was their best option after Cotto. Bradley fight was a stank bomb.

martinez is a bigger version of prime pacquiao.

props no need to cotto because its already a given.

Why does every single thread on this site turn into a Mayweather/Pacquiao thread after about 30-50 posts?

One guy claims Martinez would beat Cotto because he's a bigger version of Pac and all the *******s come flying in like flies to ****.

Another one who clearly talks out of his ass with fights he most likely didn't see.

What would be your take on Margarito/Garcia?

You got plenty of people saying that Bradley ducked Khan to fight Pac too....just saying.
