Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Admits Pressure To Retire After Cotto

[FrankieClutch]

I was 50-50 on the fight, but now I'm definitely picking Cotto. This is a clear sign that Martinez' body is not responding well to training. Any bet takers??

No, Cotto lost to Austin Trout, Mayweather, and Pacquiao.

Those fighters I tend to hold to a lower degree to Sergio Lineal MW Champ Martinez, so if 60% of Martinez shows up, Cotto atlest will make it to the 12th round.

Before I had him getting Ko'd within 3-4 rounds at best.
So I do give him a slightly better chance.

He doesn't want to meet his fate at the hands of GGG

What has GGG done to deserve all the praise. His most noticeable wins are to b class fighters at best.

I'm from Argentina and he said a few days ago that he would like to renew his contract with HBO because now he's healthy.

Where in the video did he say that? Since I don't speak Spanish, I'm curious, what was his exact quote?

[Black Barty]

Martinez is stating the obvious -- at least he openly admits it's over...

Let's see what Jr. has to say...

Which Jr.?

If you mean Chavez jr., who cares what he has to say? Just because he had 1 good minute in their fight doesn't mean Martinez owes him a rematch.

If you mean Floyd... Well, he is probably the only one who can "convince" Martinez to stay around a little longer.

Yeah, I'm thinking along your lines Heisenberg. I gave Sergio better odds before this statement, now I'm thinking the fight is closer to 50-50. Still, it could be much ado about nothing. I mean, the guy is 39. Can we reasonably expect him to fight much longer? And there's always the possibility that Martinez is playing mind games. Can't rule that out.

It was an answer to:
"Shows why Golovkin wastes his time staying at middleweight, there are no big fights for him there. Might as well go to 168 for chavez jr."
