The Official Miguel Cotto-Sergio Martinez Master Thread

[CubanGuyNYC]

It is a possibility but if he was fighting a top ten guy we might get a truer representation of that, he has chosen to fight a guy who is just barely the top dog of the division.

Honestly top ten Middleweight is pretty weak, other than the top dogs - Quillen, Golovkin, Sergio.

Sergio's opponents have been pretty weak as well. His best opponents

A bloated and under trained Chavez, Kelly Pavlik who we now know was a closet drunk and admitted to having to boil off 17lbs I believe day before on a treadmill, (probably all Guiness), Paul Williams who beat him in a very close 1st fight, started as a welterweight, then Junior middleweight..... next up probably Barker and look who he fought before Sergio... no one of any caliber, Actually I would pick Martin Murray cause he beat old man Sturm, before that he had fought no one....see where I'm going here.

Cotto is who he is, not a middle weight. but he is as good as these guys, would probably beat most of them.

the step up in size is the main factor, especially if Cotto expects to try to be a destroyer versus a boxer at this weight class.

P4P, Cotto is better than virtually everyone you just mentioned, including the current version of Martinez. But we're not talking P4P fantasy match-ups. Miguel is going in there versus a bigger man who, although not 100%, is still better than almost everyone at 160. The upset is certainly conceivable, but it's not worth banking on in my opinion.

Damn Cotto looks so tiny compared to Sergio.

LOL I see so many clueless people. They have no idea what's about to happen on Saturday night. From analysts, to even PR themselves... they have no idea. I know everything. This is all I will say, Cotto is taking that belt home on Saturday. WITHOUT A DOUBT. I laugh and smile at all the fools, I saw destiny. I already know what's going to happen. I will change my name to Mr. ***io is anything other than a Cotto victory happens. Destiny is set, nothing anybody can do about it at this point.

Sergio wrecks him even at 60%, seen all I needed to in the Judah and Trout fights.

Put your points up Cotto fans I will give you odds

Seeing as how you're so certain, and you're so wealthy, you won't mind giving me odds on a twenty trilly bet, would you?

Hell no. I am the one who should get odds, I am going against all odds. I am A WARRIOR!!!!!!! It's easy to go with the 160 pounder over the small 154 pounder. It takes a giant man like me to ride with Cotto and be a 100% sure he is winning this fight.

WAR COTTTOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Put them points up!!!

lol Freddie is pure comedy. I wonder what he'd say if Sergio claimed his Parkinson's is bullshit.

Bernard Hopkins said Freddie Roach is the best trainer he has worked with - and he said this quite a while after the Calzaghe fight.

I thought you were so certain and that you knew everything? You're right, Cotto is the smaller man. But Martinez is old and injured, so we'll just do a straight up bet for all your points. What say ye, "warrior"?
