Comments Thread For: Roach: Chavez Trained 5 Days, Almost KO'd Martinez!

I will say it again Chavez Jr ruined Martinez. He destroyed his body.

Oh shut the f@ck up

[MamaHuevo]

For all those who THINKS that martinez is the better fighter. He has been dropped in his past four fights. Got a gift decision in his last fight vs murray. He beat an old pavlik who has only jermaine taylor has his notable win. An old taylor as a matter of fact who arthur abraham did better than pavlik. Chavez jr. didn't throw any punches until the last round, because he is the type of fighter who needs to set his feet to throw those big shots, so since he was down on the scorecard he just started swinging punches and dropped martinez. Matthew macklin is a nobody, darren barker is a nobody, Serhiy Dzinziruk is a nobody, Paul Williams was a good fighter but he did lose to carlos quintana, and they would have fought a 3rd time but williams got into that accident. Erislandy Lara got robbed in that Pwilliams fight. He couldn't even beat kermit cintron convincingly, and as a puertorican I can tell you cintron is ass. Other than those fighters, he has fought plenty of bums in spain and argentina to pad up that record. Oh, and when he fought for the 1st time in nevada, he got ko'd by margacheatoh and then went back to spain to fight more bums. Now, styles makes fights. I see some people here saying that cotto gets hit alot. yes he did, thats because whenever he used to throw punches he would switch up his stance and that was when he was vounorable(spellcheck). Cotto understands that now that roach pointed that out to him, (the main reason pacquiao was even able to tag him so many times). Stylistically wise, He is back to the old cotto, dig that hook to the liver, something that he has gotten away from in recent years due to his different trainers. Mayweather knows this, (dont get mad mayweather fanboys, im just using him as an example). When cotto was 31-0 and just beat mosley, he was a body hooking machine. Then, a month later after the ricky hatton fight, mayweather retired saying that he has nothing left to prove, meanwhile cotto and him was in the same weight division. He only unretired after cotto lost to margarito, changed trainers, changed his STYLE of fighting, giving up the left hook to the body for a jab and being more defensive.

WAR COTTO!!!! PUNETA!!!!

You must be smoking some stellar crack if you believe all that bull $h@t you just wrote.

Freddy is running his mouth an awful lot. All he is doing is making it a rough night for Cotto. I thought trainers were supposed to be on the lookout for their fighters, not setting them up for beatings.

He's clearly not bragging about it; he's merely making a distinction and offering an explanation. Martinez was absolutely whooping Chavez Jr. But then the 11th and 12th round happen, and frankly, that cast a huge shadow over Martinez' otherwise dominant performance.

Yes! Because that's NEEEEEEVER HAPPENED in any other fight, right??!! So that must mean...(gasp!) IT WAS FAKE WIN FOR MARTINEZ!...

[livershot73]

Jr knocked martinez down then he got up and continued to beat the hell out of jr. even had him trying to hold on

Exactly! But for some F#CKED UP REASON, they forget THAT!

[livershot73]

Left hook = Cotto. We shall see how Sergio reacts.

Uuuuhhh...how about overhand left = Martinez...then we shall see Cotto, oh I don't know, chicken-dance maybe?

[NY2Vegas]

Cotto is not as powerful or durable as Chavez. People keep talking about Cotto's powerful pressure. But Cotto was too weak to pressure Trout effectively. Cotto really can't afford to be hit with any flush shots from Martinez. Cotto's not exactly hard to hit, so that could be an issue for him.

I'd say Cotto's just as durable as Chavez w/ a little more movement. But Chavez has more power.

I guess you can't come up with something intellegent to say about the boxing topic at hand. Go back to your moms basement, you are drunk.

[GRUSTLER]

Roach is a s#!t trainer. All this guy talks about is how Martinez didn't look good in his last fight. That's what he is banking on.

[Southpawology]

Yea considering Chavez was a ****ing cruiserweight at fight night I'm surprised he didn't kill Martinez, 190 plus vs a small middleweight.

Exactly thats the main point here. Cotto aint a cruiserweight like Jr hes a natural welter. Jr had a huge size advantage cotto wont have that.
