Comments Thread For: Team Cotto Giving Martinez Deal Until End of Month

[El Angel]

Cotto was scheduled to fight Margarito assuming he got past Williams. He didn't. So Cotto should have fought Williams. He didn't.

So he was scheduled to fight the winner of Margarito-Williams?

Not sure about Cotto doing all the ducking.. but i know for sure Bob Arum was ducking Cotto vs Mayweather saying Cotto was too green for Floyd when Floyd wanted the fight

[Bigg Rigg]

We as boxing fans have accepted that GB and TR refuse to do business with eachother but now we can't even get Cotto and Sergio to fight because of this who comes out second bull****??? Boxing is pathetic!!!

[PR ESQ.]

Martinez isn't going to budge, Cotto should just give in, after all it's Cotto that's 2-2 in his last 4 fights. He should feel lucky and honored that the Middleweight champion is even giving him a shot.

Let's not get too carried away here...Cotto is the cash cow Sergio has been wanting and waiting for his entire career so I believe the true honor is Sergio's to be had.. Cotto is giving him the fight for his legacy but what is the alternative for champ Sergio an asskicking by Triple G at half the dough and then bye bye to career. Sergio ain't running shiet.

Well it was assumed Margarito would win but he didn't so logically, Cotto should have fought the guy who beat Margarito.

This is getting ridiculous. Just get it done already.

Exactly Sergio needs to get off his high horse. He was the b side of a semi successful ppv fight, and now he think he runs ****.

COTTO ducking who ????????? COTTO fought everybody at their best like very few boxers can say....OH MY GOD,someone here is really a.....!!! Talking about PW is ridicolous,COTTO fought MARGARITO when was the most feared boxer on the planet,was the P4P king JUNIOR that broke with ARUM because was so scared of MARGARITO to not accept 8 millions??? COTTO fought MOSLEY before becoming the old zombie that fought MANNY and JUNIOR,COTTO fought JUDAH after JUNIOR but still in his prime,COTTO fought a undeafeted QUINTANA ( after a great fight with a undeafeted JOEL JULIO ) destroying him and QUINTANA two fights later outboxed Paul Williams; I CAN GO ON !!!!

Cotto isn't going to Canelo. that fight could have been made many times but Cotto isn't going to be the B side for Canelo and you know he will be if he fights Alvarez.

he knows it and that's why that fight hasn't been made.


Martinez just needs to take the disrespect (sorry but having the challenger being billed 1st in a title fight is disrespectful)

Cotto is NO PUNK, that's for sure. However, Margarito was not the most feared boxer on the planet. Paul Williams beat Margarito in '07, and Cotto fought Margarito in '08. Paul Williams was the real terror that no one in WW division wanted to see!
