      It would be nice if Martinez would love to fight bad ass middleweights like GGG and Quillin instead of Cotto who pays well but who is a smaller 154 pounder who lost his last two fights and has never defeated a middleweight. To me GGG is the real middleweight champ because he will fight any middleweight with the courage to face him and I think he beats them all. Cotto is a good brave fighter but he has done nothing to earn a fighter for the middleweight world title. GGG has fought some easy guys but only because the higher ranked guys won't fight him.

        People criticize Martinez' opposition yet 3 of his last 4 opponents have taken on the middleweight champs.

        IBF champ: Geale fights Barker then loses
        WBA champ: Golovkin fights Macklin (then tries to fight Murray)
        WBO champ: Quillin tries to make a fight with Murray

          Cotto is way too small, Martinez is much better than Trout and has been fighting the bigger opposition

            All of those guys gained stature from better than expected performances vs Martinez. They didn't bring a lot coming in. Agree Martinez' comp looks better in hindsight, but it was still weak for a top 5 (or 3?) p4per.

              If he wants Cotto, might as well get paid for a tune-up
              And yes it's a tune-up. He's fighting a guy who shouldn't be at JMW
              Sergio uses cotto as a tune up, gets mad bank for it and Cotto was considered a big fight for Floyd lol

                  That's exactly the plan. Spoke with Freddie last week and he said they have a straight shot at Maravilla if they ko Rodriguez.
