Steve Kim @stevemaxboxing 3h
Another source pointed out to me,"(Cotto) didn't make that much for Mayweather." Both sources would be involved in Cotto-Martinez

Curious what Kim meant by that...

****** fight robbing golovking of his rightful place as top middleweight

[Da Boxer]

Great fight, Cotto as the underdog.... !

Cant wait to see this! Guerra Miguel! War Cotto!

I wouldn't mind this fight, but funny to see Sergio still uninterested in Golovkin.

Martinez isn't that big for a middleweight.

against Macklin he was rehydrated to something like 165

5'10 165ish?


That's about as big as Margarito against Pacquiao. Canelo is a few inches short but basically weights the same on fight night.


Cotto can't make 147, that's what he says. he's been fighting at 154 for awhile. Martinez is probably smaller than some junior middleweights so I don't see a need for a catchweight.

Cotto will be a beast with 6 more pounds of muscle.

best fight of next year by far

They want to get more money for the Canelo fight.

Martinez hits hard.....

Cotto will rip Martinez a new, wether Martinez is/was shot or prime. Cotto have all the tools that would/will trouble Martinez, superior technique, wit superior timming and accuracy and most importantly a better jab. Cotto will slow outbox and punish Martinez into submision!

I see Canelo as atouigher fight for Cotto do to styles, plus Canelo is young and strongewr than both Cotto and Martinez.

Have you heard anything about this $15 million dollar offer for the Martinez fight Champ?

Cotto vs Martinez is a amazing fight @ 154 !!!! Martinez is a very small middleweight!
