This is advanced knowledge for the likes of NSB.

LOL

Seriously, some people here seemed to have started watching boxing last week, which is ok if they didn't act like boxing graduates

[thuggery]

Cotto's a diva, what's new?

[MDPopescu]

Read that Cotto will be introduced first though.

You can't introduce the (lineal) champ first... It's absurd and unprecedented...

[JJRod]

Puerto Ricans and Argentinians are the highst Latino population in NY, so how can anyone say that Cotto is the one putting a22es on those seats?

Cotto is turning to be a primadona, he should be thankful that he is disputting the middle weight crown. Martinez want to or not has not los a fight in a long time, and Cotto just because he beat an egg beater in Rodriguez figueres he is the star he once was?

BS I hope Martinez beats his a22 down

As far as I knew the highest latino population in New York was Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Colombians.
Are there really that many Argentines in NY?

You have it mixed up. Champion gets introduced last.

Why is Cotto's record listed with 1 loss? He has 4, no?

[FerFAL]

Top billing goes to the guy selling the fight, so its Cotto (the guy whos putting asses in the seats and money in the bank) - Martinez (The consummate B side)

if the issue was who gets announced second, Martinez would have a legitimate gripe.

So now Cotto is some kind of super star because he beat crappy Delvin Rodríguez? after two losses during 2012? come on!
Sorry, but you liking Cotto doesnt make him a star, he's a has been.The star here is the Champ Maravilla Martinez. Cotto has been losing pretty often lately while the Champ has been winning.
In fact, most people clearly expect Martinez to win, so Cotto trying to pull rank based on the big names he's been what? losing against? is a joke.
Its a Champ fighting a challenger, and the challenger in this case thinks he's some kind of big shot when he's not.
