I believe Cotto has shown signs of bad sportsmanship given how he walked out of the ring after losing to Floyd and Trout. But I don't know the guy or have ever met him so I can't judge.

Miguel is small for this weight division I think we can all agree on that... Martinez is bigger faster stronger... He has also made bigger guys like pavlik , Williams , maklin, barker and Chavez back up... Cotto at 154 struggled a lot against a light hitting counter puncher like trout. Who also doesn't have very good hand speed... I say martinez comes back from that hand and knee injury like a champ, punishes cotto and beats him to the ground in the 11th round.Comment

Thats not true at all, Cotto did a post fight interview for the loss to Margarito and to Manny pac. he did a post fight interview from the locker room after both the Mayweather fight and the trout fight because he wasnt happy with the scores. Sergio is lying trying to sell the fight. Him and Cotto have had conversations before, where Cotto has told him to beat a big name fighter, sergio beat JCC now Cotto called him. and sergio is not even mexican, what does he care about Cotto being a d!ck on a mexican network. Sergio is trying to tap in to the Puerto rico vs. mexican rivalry, dont read to much into it.Comment

Sergio Has Waited Too Long; He Can't Beat Cotto, But Gennady Can & Canelo
Sergio and Cotto are both on their way out. If Sergio could learn to keep his hands up, he'd have a chance with Cotto. Sergio is rolling up on 40yts old and gets hurt too much these days. But neither of these guys want to fight Gennady because that's a career closer there.Comment

both Pavlick and JCC are slow plotting come forward fighters, with no movement at all, and very low ring iq's no jab. sergio didnt make Williams back up, i really dont know what fight you were watching, infact the reason why he caught Williams with the same over hand punch was precisely because Williams never backed off. Trout is a much more defensive fighter then Martinez same height and reach except trout boxes from the out side and leans forward with his jab, which makes his reach longer. also trout has a way better jab then sergio, on top of that cotto was out of shape for that fight. lets not forget Martinez has never had one shot KO power, he only knocked out williams and with one shot, and Cotto has never been KO'd. Martinez is a pitty pat puncher, hes never fought someone with Cotto's skill set, and if Cotto utilizes his jab (which he didnt do against Trout) then he could win the fight. Sergio lunges in with his punches Cotto can time him with the jab, and mix in the left hook with body punching, he could win.Comment

thats not necessarily true, Cotto was going to spar with GGG for prep during training camp for the Margaritto fight. GGG trainer said no because Cotto had already been training for some time and was close to top form, while GGG was just coming into Big Bear, the trainer said it would not have benefited either of them to spar with each other at that point. the interview is on you tube look it up. any way my point is, if Cotto were to win against Martinez we could very well see him fight GGG.Comment

If Cotto is training with Roach/sparring Pac then Sergio better respect his power at the very least..Comment
