Comments Thread For: Photos: Cotto, Martinez Go Face To Face in Puerto Rico

If Maravilla is anywhere near peak form, he takes it. But I am afraid he's past it. Cotto will take it.

Hard to root against either guy, anyway

:*******: haters gonna hate

Just telling the truth.

I like Cotto but what was said was false.

A good tune-up fight for Martinez, he may K.O Canelo next, then end his glorious career with a win over GGG

Tough fight ahead for King Cotto but I know he will come on top. Miguel is the highest caliber Maravilla has fought. Time to get to work! Time to make history!

Guerra Miguel! War Cotto!

C'mon now, that was not Manny's toughest fine by a long shot, nor Floyd's. De La Hoya won 1-2 more rounds than Cotto (5 versus 3 or 4) and Castillo certainly was Floyd's toughest fight to date.

Cotto is a good fighter, very popular, but acting like he was within a hair of beating Floyd or Manny is a fairly large exaggeration.

The biggest question about this fight isn't really about who will win, it's more about if Martinez is in good shape and healthy. If he is, he should be a fairly big favorite at 159 lbs.

Yeah it was LoL

Just responding to poster who said he wasn't top 15 p4p. If cotto could still make 147 he would definitely give Garcia (arguably top 5 p4p) a run for his money

I hope Martinez f's him up...Martinez has been degraded too much throughout his career, he took the stage second with Chavez now with Cotto while being the lineal champion...I think these kind of things fire him up and motivate him to kick ass.

hes gonna beat the ***$#$# outta cotto I guarantee it hopefully I find some dummies to bet cus ill love watching even more knowing ill make some cash out the situation

i'm certainly not gay or anything, (not that there's anything wrong with that).. but damn, those are two good looking dudes

Big size difference! Cotto will have to bring his A game and hope that long inactivity,injuries and age will catch up to Martinez. Love both guys but more respect to Cotto for moving up and keep fighting high caliber guys.Martinez could have moved up and fight Ward but cannot blame him for taking what is the best financially especially his nearing the end of his career.

I rewatched Pacquiao-Cotto yesterday. If Pacquiao was hurting Cotto, imagine what Martinez will do. I would have thought that Cotto's punch resistance improved when he moved up to 154, but then Mayweather staggered him with a left uppercut. It will be interesting to see what happens once the first clean punch from Martinez lands.

Speed kills and no way Martinez is fast pacman or slick as Floyd

Got a feeling Martinez knees are ruined and people cotto is a very good boxer
