Fans were robbed Saturday night.

[vman075]

Dude I'm a cotto fan I'm Puerto Rican but don't like Trinidad never did just my thing I rather watch a bad fight then no fight at all... I spend a few yrs in the service this is the first fight I got to watch live in awhile I was like a kid in a candy store

Like I said, if you enjoyed it, more power to you. I was just giving my opinion as a guy looking for a good fight (I like both Cotto and Martinez but I'm not a huge fan of either). I understand Cotto fans who enjoyed this one. If one of my favorites was in his position I prob would have enjoyed it as well. When I said I didn't enjoy seeing "a one sided beatdown..." I meant that in perspective of fights, obviously it was better than no fight at all, just with all the PPV's to buy this year and given what happened, it wasn't worth the buy

I will reiterate that I am a Cotto FAN. He's my favorite fighter, first one I ever paid PPV $$$ to see, and first one I paid to see live. He did what he was supposed to do, and looked great doing it. Plus, I believe it's better for the sport that he won. That being said, no one can tell me something wasn't wrong with Martinez's knees. Those getting into partially torn meniscus etc., I couldn't care less. Save your technicalities for someone who cares. The man's legs were not right, to the point that his mobility was greatly affected. That's all I need to know, and anyone with a working pair of eyes and a brain saw this too. I guess Jim Lampley and Roy Jones with there experience were out of there minds with what they observed during the fight. They must be nuts too I guess.

I would be pissed if I'd paid for that. It was a farce.

And everyone was on his nuts before... GTF out of here. The guy got rocked and never recovered legs or no legs this was Cottos night and he demolished Martinez, I paid plenty of money to see it live, and I for one do not feel robbed.

The guys who were on Martinez's jock strap on the other hand feel robbed. He got taken to school. Was off balance all night, Cotto cut the ring off wonderfully had Martinez flustered.

Don't Cry for me Argentina!

Rational fans all know this. Purto Rican cotto d!ck suckers deny it. It's the reason why they will never be taking seriously.

Anyone who couldn't see that the guy's knees were wrecked from the start shouldn't be discussing boxing. Cotto is cool and all but to celebrate this as a meaningful win is cheap as hell. Martinez couldn't move and it had nothing to do with Cotto. Sergio shouldn't have taken the fight in that condition.

What is he suppost to do then? He won the fight.

[BucaRican]

What is he suppost to do then? He won the fight.

People want him to give the belt back, the money back and for Cotto to say this fight doesn't count I need to give Sergio everything back he is still the champ.

GTF out of here in the 24/7, The faceoffs he talked so much ***** and his camp and his doctor kept saying nothing was a issue.

[Croyd]

I am a Cotto fan. He did exactly what he was supposed to do. But Saturday night he fought a DISABLED opponent. We were all lied to on Sergio's true status. He was shot. Let's keep this in perspective people.

If I bought it on PPV I would ask for a refund.
The fans were definately robbed by a guy looking to cash out on his final fight.

There were contract rules that changed after the "No Mas" Duran fight ,there should be some new ones for fighters that can't fight without wearing knee braces.

I am a fan of both fighters and i share the same opinion as most of you. Of coure the Martinez supporters and neutral boxing fans on this site are quite rare to be found but i am happy to see there are actual fans of the sport who can see what really happened there. Boxing is huge business and I can somewhat understand the other side of the medal as well. Cotto achieved something big that day and all his supporters and the media will just celebrate this as if he beat a prime lineal middleweight champ.

Why is that? Its obvious, it helps to keep the sport alive, when more people would question what happened that night and dig a little deeper that would just create controversy and that would hurt the sport of boxing, it would hurt HBO, the media, the commission, the fighters, the integrity of the sport. So everyone in the business just keeps quite about it and most of the "fans" just follow them like Lemmings without their own opinion.

The truth is most everyone from 154-160 pounds would have beat Martinez that night who shouldnt have been allowed to fight. I dont't critisize Cotto for doing what he had to do.

[Picazo]

It was fairly obvious that this Sergio was far gone from the man who stopped Willams and beat Pavlik. Everyone hoped Martinez was in top form but it turned out he wasnt. Cotto did fight well and capitalized on the occasion. But in sadly this fight was over before it even began.
