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

Martinez has never fought anybody as great as Marquez, it's easy to adjust against B level fighters.

When has Pacquiao ever adjusted against Marquez? Pac is a one-trick pony. Period.

It's a pretty amazing trick that allowed him to win over so many HOF and ATGs. Martinez doesn't have 1 HOF win.

You didn't answer my question...

HOF is just a tag, do you really give Pac credit for beating Mosley. I give Martinez more credit for moving up in weight from 154 and beating the 178 pound lineal middleweight champ. The guy has consistently outboxed and KO'd much larger opponents over the last few years. Meanwhile Pac has gone 6 straight fights without a stoppage and we're still supposed to pretend he's a knockout artist.

Don't get me wrong though, I'm not for a second arguing that Martinez's resume is better than Pac's; I value what Pac did from 112 to 135 (It's what makes him an ATG), but his record at welterweight (and 150 lol) is ridiculously overrated. Martinez has been the better fighter from 2010-13. Period.

By the way, why are we arguing about Pac/Martinez in a Cotto v. Martinez thread?

Cause Pac gets sniped on in every other unrelated thread, and it set me off yesterday. Some other time, cheers

Go back down to 147 Cotto. Do it for your fans.

Cotto has always been a warrior and I'd really like this fight but Martinez might just KO him. If he doesn't break him to pieces first, Martinez wins 8-4 or 9-3 worst case.

[Ringlife]

Cotto is always willing to fight the best fighters out there. I just give him props for that. I would rather see him fight Ishe Smith or Angulo though.

[RINGG]

After beating Cotto, Mayweather called out Martinez but quickly withdrew it. Cotto is showing some guts here. I think he should score a win or two before he qualified for another title shot though.

Martinez all wrong for Cotto. If it happens , Martinez by brutal ko.
