Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez: I'm The Power Puncher in This Fight

[Agent Mulder]

Stfu who doesnt struggle with southpaws troll. He beat them all but 1..martinez has been dropped numerous times by lesser competition, and should he even be champion right now?? Murray beat him he struggled with barker?? I mean didnt sturm ko him in 2? Maklin was good but not top 5 and he struggled there! Shiat cotto took floyd to the brink and almost had him! People like yourself make it sound so easy, and in reality its far from it...cotto by late round body shot k.o. that martinez is going to sell as a low blow!

CRAZY mother****ers in these Cotto threads lol It's HILARIOUS!

Bro, honestly...are you serious with this? That fight was never, ever, in question. Cotto was more competitive than anyone had been in a while versus Mayweather, but he never threatened to win that fight. No way.

Story of the fight:
The first 8 rounds were actually pretty competitive (PBF 5-3 or 4-4 ) w/Cotto crushing Floyd's nose and probably having his best round in the 8th, but Cotto faded from then on and Mayweather swept the last 4 rounds.


This fight could be similar in that Cotto could fade late and allow Martinez to stop him or sweep the last few rounds.

Since 2003, Martinez is:
22-1-1 (17 KOs) and should really be 24-0 (18 KOs)

Since 2003 Martinez has recorded 8 K.O.'s (opponent down for the ten count not TKO or RTD) to Cotto's 3.

Sergio (the bigger fighter) is a power puncher and he is definitely the puncher in this fight.

So what since you are looking on box rec why dont you tell me out of those wins whos a credible fighter and who is a countryman? Only high profile wins on his record is williams pavlik and chavez jr, the rest are not all known by casual fans!! Cotto has 32 k.o.s, and has fought better competition....i thought you guys would have learned something from the garcia vs mathysse and broner vs maidana fight!!

I do believe I used the word "competitive" in my original post. I don't recall ever having Cotto up, nor do I recall feeling like, "Oh, oh, Floyd is in trouble." You saw it a little differently, which is cool, but your final score says it all.

As for Cotto "crushing" Mayweather's nose, I don't consider a bloody nose "crushed" unless there's a fracture or a break. Was Floyd's nose broken?

If you are a student of the game you can see by the technique who hits harder and believe me cotto puts more weight behind his punches..you have to had stepped in the ring before to understand what iam saying...and thats what it is i dont give a *** about anything else you have to say, go troll another thread.

Sergio has excellent timing and puts great leverage on his punches while Cotto leaves himself wide open to counters with his looping punches that he loads up on. Martinez' jab and right hook are going to cause Cotto big problems, especially the jab.

Cotto hasn't beaten a top opponent since Yuri Foreman in 2010. Martinez has been consistently beating top middleweights for years.

And we use the term "top opponent" for Foreman very, very loosely. Yuri was a weak champ, and a badly injured weak champ at that. I'm beginning to see a pattern of targeting perceived weakness at the higher weights here. lol

Manny tko'd him and trout clearly out boxed him. So he lost to 2 southpaws. Only fan boys think he won the trout fight. Come Saturday he'll get brutally tko'd by one more southpaw.
