Comments Thread For: Photo: Miguel Cotto, Sergio Martinez Commercial Shoot

These photoshoots so far away from the fight always suck. Everyone is fat. They should take them right before the weigh in and save the photos for their next fight.

Just look at em like transformation photos. You know..for their youtube channel.

The thing is that they use these for promos and posters. It's embarrassing. The Chavez vs Martinez one looked bad.

I definitely want to see the transformations to see how they're progressing in their camps though. Just don't put the pics on the ads.

These promos suck lol.. The fighters are out of shape..Marquez, Bradley, pacquiao, Chavez jr (of course), canelo , cotto, except for Mayweather have had a gut when doing promos. They don't even have the six pack at this time. Martinez always gets in beast mode when training though.

It IS harder to lose muscle so he likely has those abs there but I still worry bout that last article saying even walking is semi painful. He's never had even close to a problem making weight and wasn't exactly at his peak physical condition vs Murray and still made it fine so I believe it. Im only pokin' fun at the dude as he always seems to be in shape before the injury but he should make it no problem. 3 months is a LOT of time.

Oh, I know....I'm just saying he would have to be in REALLY bad shape to not be able to lose that spare tire in 3 months.

So I've heard there is a 159 pound catch weight for this fight. Watch the Martinez-worshipers start to already make excuses for Sergio. We'll see comments like "Wow, Martinez looks like a skeleton" or "Martinez will be a zombie by fight night" or (my favorite excuse people use unless their favorite fighter requests a catch weight: see Floyd v. Canelo) "Cotto should fight at 160 if he wants to be the real Middleweight champion.

If Martinez wins, I hope he stops taking easy fights and fights GGG. Cotto can't win either way with the Martinez-worshipers/internet nerds: If Cotto wins, Martinez hadn't recovered from his injury and he had to come in at 159, he was drained. If Martinez wins, they will take a page from Mayweather fans and start the excuses for why Martinez isn't really ducking GGG but won't fight him on HBO.

Lmfao looking like an aged Zoolander about to take on some kid with down syndrome.


Damn, Snake. Looks like SOMEONE doesn't like Martinez.

159 is bogus and petty as hell, not sure why anyone would disagree... and Martinez IS coming off SERIOUS career threatening injuries, especially at his age. That pound might sound like nothin'.. >__>...but ironically he's fighting a dude who's been using a similar excuse for a bit of time.

Both mean business.

[ColdBlooded]

Both fighters look a little soft. Not a big deal. I'm sure they'll both be fine in three months.

Cotto sporting a Juan Diaz style belly. Looking like a midget next to Martinez too.
