Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Jr: Cotto Has To Batter Martinez Early To Win

Stop Repeating Yourself

both "maravilla"& cotto are washed up Triple GGG is the real champion at 160

Do you have anything new to say?

For cotto to win he needs to follow the murray blueprint

1. keeps his guard high and tight and not allow serg to potshot.. Cotto should be able to do this, he was effective in blocking alot of floyd's lead right unlike victor ortiz

2. use the jab and double jab to force serg backwards

3. attack the body to slow serg down after a few rounds

4. stay aggressive


If cotto can do those things, i think he has a shot of slowing serg down, and taking over after 6 rounds and with the crowd behind him, i can see cotto getting a close decision unlike murray

I wish Floyd would follow Cotto's example. He fights everyone!

No he doesn't. Delvin was the best he could do his last fight?

Cotto still getting whooped. Martinez is going to pick him apart and bloody him up to a ko. don't know why people are trying to see something that isn't thier. Martinez only has troubled with guys bigger then him and he still got ko's over some of these opponents. Granted none had the skills of cotto but it don't matter if your a 6-8rd fighter. In a very long time Martinez has been the smaller guy and now he faces a miget it's going be an easy night for Martinez

Cotto is a skilled fighter, kind of underrated in some ways. Martinez doesn't have good defense and he will be there for Cotto to hit. Especially with the jab. That hands down defense will get exposed so fast.

Martinez no macht for Cotto!Cotto is going to whoop his ass.....

The only person that will be doing the Battering is Martinez, Cotto too small....

So Mike Tyson never had a chance, right?

Disagree with RJJ on this. He needs to establish the jab and make the fight at his tempo, a key ANYTIME Cotto fights.

Great breakdown, agree with everything. He also needs to change between aggression and making Sergio come to him, changing tempo is key IMO. Martinez looked uncomfortable when he had to bring the fight to Macklin and Murray when they shelled up.
