    Cotto has earned his battle scars fool! Has the better P4P resume than anyone at 160lb!

    Bunch of haters on this Motherfugger! Dude has earned his due and can and will fight whoever the fugg he wants!!!! He is King Cotto putas!
    No ones hating on Cotto it's simply being objective in analyzing his last few fights and the fact that other fighters should be getting the Martinez fight instead of him. Obviously the business side plays a huge factor and Cotto has paid his dues in the sport but don't be naive and act like he's doing Martinez a favor in fighting him. More power to Cotto if this fight is finally finalized he's been in there with the best and his name justifies him getting this fight but definitely not the opponents he's beaten.
    Modern day fighters don't earn title shots on actual merit and Cotto is not the exception so to single him out would be unfair.

          June 8th is gonna be a damn good day on here.
          Like he's going to even hit Cotto anyways, let alone beat him up.

          Why is June 8th going to be good? There is nothing official yet, just words.

              You know his uncle is the one who threw the brick right? At Cotto's car. Weapons > fists, even if you're a master professional fighter and are trained to fight.

              After the bruising scrap, Evangelista Cotto allegedly threw a cement block on his nephew's 2009 Jaguar, shattering a right-side window.

              Nothing official, but I can't see Martinez turning down the payday and the winnable fight that comes with it.

                  Says neither filed a complaint, so it wasn't reported by them.

                  It could happen, but that means Sergio is headed for GGG then. I don't think he wants that yet.

There's a vendetta against Canelo because of various reasons, GBP, he's young, next DLH, obviously skillful and poised for his age, potential Mayweather opponent(at the time), and did way better and made it look easier than a lot of people thought. Trout looked silly missing while Canelo ducked and dodged his weak little jabs that seemed to have impressed a lot of people. Lol, 400 of 700 punches thrown were jabs, how the hell do you win a fight like that when the other fighter landed as many power punches as you, while throwing less? I mean talk about elusiveness, defense, patience, and being economical with your punches. Caleo landed the same amount of power punches as Trout, but threw well-over 100 less. That's a winner to me.
                    you mean to tell me beating trout earned him a shot at floyd? he got that fight because of his hype. beating trout had nothing to do with it. the same applies here.
