So that changes what he said or something?

Sure changes your views on catch weights, just like the Floyd nation.

Sergio Martínez @maravillabox 5h
Now it is the time that the team works to secure a fight with Cotto. Until the deal is done, there is nothing more to say

This fight is going to be incredibly easy to make.

LOOL

But Cotto has improved over the years, having said that, I just don't think he has improved since pre-Pacquiao. Pacquiao whooped one of the better versions of Cotto, Cotto that night, for 4 rounds was competitive but when Pacs punches started to destroy his body, his soul collapsed as it did with Margarito.

Cotto is the type of guy who will always do better against "boxers" than more aggressive "fighters". Martinez is a very smart boxer but he also has terrific power, speed, a size advantage and knows how to finish guys off. I don't wana see Cotto leave in a coffin. Leave this fight alone.

I think Pedro Diaz brought a few new elements to his game but I don't think he made him "better" if you get me.

Physically he's never been the same IMO since the Margarito fight and then more so after the Pacquaio fight.

I don't think he was shot after those fights, I don't think he's shot now. But, he's definitely never been the same since those 2 fights.

The only way Martinez loses this fight is if he's well well well passed it.

Why is this fight being made, it's a sham, Top Prank never fails. We all know Cotto can't beat Martinez. This is what messes up boxing. Too many non competitive fights. I hope Sergio will not be nice and carry him for 12rds but knocks him out cold. But I know Martinez will show his appreciation by not beating the slop out of him. This fight is about nothing but money and that's it.

Mental scars never truly go away. Beating a shot, one eyed dead man Margarito by doctor stoppage will not heal the beatings he's suffered.

Once Sergio starts landing those fast combos on his head, the memories will all come flooding back.

Edwin....Delvin.....who cares?

I couldn't disagree with you more. But we shall see and circle back in the future to see who theory rings true following this fight.

As to the Rodriguez' merely correcting an oversight on your behalf...

Yeah its just about money. Nothing historical about it. It does nothing for Cotto's legacy, it won't be the biggest name on Martinez' legacy and who the hell would want to watch it on the weekend of the Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York?

If Cotto pulls this off by some divine miracle it will be his best win to date and make history.

LOL. That's my point. I was being sarcastic. The post I quoted was foolishness.

How on Earth did I let that clear and blatant sarcasm elude me?
