    Cotto needs to establish himself as the middleweight champion. If Cotto fans are so adamant on saying Sergio was 100% ok then he needs to take the big fights like GGG, unless of course he fights Canelo. Srcub/Crippled/Long Layoff is a pattern I dont want to see is. He wont the MW belt now freaking defend it. To take the belt because he wants his 4th title in 4 divisions and not defend it like Sergio was doing is a little prima donna-ish.
    LOL, he did that on satuday he beat the tar out of the Lineal Middleweight champion of the world. Like or not he is the man at middleweight.

        The win was against a cripple, hes not a top middleweight and hes not a top p4p fighter because of it.
        Funny because Martinez's corner wanted to stop the fight and Martinez wanted to continue fighting. But you say he just went there to get paid...

          He managed to box and move for 8/9 more rounds after the first. Maybe he should've spent some time beforehand working out his chin as well as his knee.

              Have some self respect and at the very least, back a fighter with real ability and real pedigree. You are Chino fan for crying out loud. Journeyman 101

                Stop crying. People forget that Cotto has been beaten to a pulp 2 times in his career and has been rocked even more times, and is still able to train hard, stay focused and win fights. Stop crying and congratulate the man. Be like Sergio and take the L with dignity.

                  the point is not in backing someone up, the point is the hypocrisy... excuses are ok for cotto and his fans only and no one else? but if someone tells you "martinez has no legs" what do you do? you laugh and call him a crybaby, right?

                  at least when chino gets knocked down he gets up and fight, can you said the same about your pedigree fighter?

                    Regardless and what you haters say, Cotto is still the NEW champ and 7 million dollars richer while you haters are still broke. He will be remembered as a 4time world champion...In the end, your opinions will not matter. He will still be in the HOF.

                      I felt the same way. Martinez knew he didn't belong in the ring anymore but managed to squeak in a PPV fight so he could collect his pension and retire form boxing.
                      I hate people that buy these PPV fights. Boxing is not worth PPV, I'm a huge boxing fan but there is no reason to buy the show on TV when you can get tickets for the same price. PPV does not help the boxing community except for a handful of fighters.
                      Want better fights? Stop buying PPV.
