Comments Thread For: Sergio: whether Cotto boxes or attacks, night will be short

[Wizardsh]

Are morons actually saying cotto and Martinez have equal punch power or that power won't matter talk about morons in this topic. Martinez koed legit middle weights and has proven to have 1 punch ko power. Cotto only has one ko win at 154 and it was against club fighter

[-DSG-]

i just want cotto to put up a good fight if he can make this fight similar to the mayweather fight ill be content.

Sergio Martinez is going to beat the **** out of cotto!
Hell, The last 5 people Martinez fought all starch cotto. You guys must of forgot cotto just got his ass whooped by Austin freakin trout for Christ sakes!

Silly fan boys! I wonder what the excuses are gonna be after the fight.

Lets also keep in mind Cotto is......well kind of chinny even at 147, ffs Floyd hurt him in their fight so Sergio for sure has enough power to ko him. Also you are grossly overstating Cotto's boxing ability, its one thing to look slick against a punching bag like Plasterito but he will be at all kinds of physical disadvantages against a Sergio who is mad and feels disrespected as the champion and wants to make a point here.

The diference3 here is that Cotto is the best fighter that Martinez has fought in his career and Martinez is like the fifth best fighter Cotto has fought and definetly not the bigger fighter in size or punch that Cotto has fought. So you gyuys are kind of confuse I think. Not saying that Martinez is a bad fighter, but Cotto has fought better fighters and I think that experience with Cotto's overall skillset will be a bit too much for Martinez.

I don't see Sergio as being ****y. He is just "matter of fact". People seeing that post probably think the guy is full of himself. He just knows how it's gotta go down. He needs a big win and Miguel Cotto is the smaller guy and has been KO'd in the past.

Martinez...if nothing else definitely has a flair for the dramatic. Most guys shy from ko predictions....(except Roach's dumbazz) Martinez loves to apply the pressure to himself. He tried to knock Jr out. & no ddoubt he's going to try to end Cotto's night. He know's wuts at stake & that he will get robbed if he lets them. I'm super excited for this one. ...super. This will be my first Major MAjor Championship fight live. I've seen Roy & Bernard but not in Huge fights. I did see Nard vs Dawson & that was a blast. Only figters left to see live are JMM, Pac & floyd. & that'll round out all my favs from the era. Looking fwd to being w/ all them drunk Ricans in the building!!

Cotto is the best fighter Martinez has fought too bad its been a while since Miguel has been at his best.

Cotto was a top 140-147lber, just a mediocre 154lber with a paper belt and now fighting at 160 for the MW title after beating an ESPN level guy and losing 2 in a row 1 against a natural WW like himself?

Its like saying if Martinez was fighting Rigo he would be fighting one of the best fighters he fought but so what? Rigo is a little dwarf and out of his best weight class.

Lol at this people saying Sergio will win because he has more power. Sergio is not a power puncher at all, he has decent pop. Second Cotto has a better jab, better timing, better technique and better defense. From what we know he might as well have better movement than Sergio.

Second co.paring Cotto to Pavlik is ridiculous, yes Pavlik hit hard, but he was a first face, 1-2 brawler with no movement, Cotto will be moving all over the place hitting Martinez from diferentes angles, and ripping Martinez to the body. Has never faced a fighter like Cotto, and he will be reminded Saturday night!

Why don't you ask iron chinned MIDDLEWEIGHT(not Jr. Middleweight), Paul Williams if Sergio has punching power??!!
