Exactly. If Sergio had boxed Cotto to a UD or KO'd him, these comments about being "shot" and Sergio "had no legs" bs would be non existent. By Cotto landing that hook, it made Sergio have no legs and look shotWhy is he shot? Because he lost to a better fighter? That reasoning makes sense, considering you're a nsb veteran lol.
Has Martinez seen better days? Sure. Same with cotto. Did everybody and their brother pick Martinez, in whatever condition, to murder cotto? Yes.
Why are you denying the fact that Martinez got seriously hurt right off the bat? Why are you disregarding the words straight from Martinez' mouth, that he was seriously hurt right off the bat and couldn't recover? Why aren't you taking these into consideration, and considering that maybe you saw a fighter who was seriously hurt and lost control of his legs(which happens all the time) as opposed to being shot and knees blown?
That's right, who's the ***n fanboy now?
See above, ditto motha***a
He got knocked down 3 times and had absolutely no trouble getting up off the floor all 3 times. He never limped or showed any signs of pain. But yea, he had no legs going into the fight.

Bro you are on point. Unfortunately you are wasting your time. Martinez, his trainer, his promoter, the hospital he went to after the fight and anyone who actually had anything to do with this fight has said nothing was wrong with his knee. Yet here we are. There is no hope because no matter what these guys don't want to give cotto credit.Comment

Your name says it all. Your a joke and I highly doubt anyone besides your fellow trolls will ever take you seriously. This is a boxing website and you don't belong here.Comment

All I know is Sergio and his team swore up and down the knee was fine and continue to say so after the fight. I'll take their word for it before I listen to anyone on this forum. Was Sergio at the level he was a few years ago? No, but we all knew that beforehand. That doesn't change the fact that Cotto just simply beat him up. He's the better boxer.Comment

It's not that people are saying Martinez was past it, or not the same. It's that they are sayi nh he was basically unable to even walk or defend himself. It's getting ridiculous. Basically Cotto went from being a 2-1 underdog to beating a cripple.Comment

Unfortunately saying Martinez was past prime just doesn't say it. He was past prime in the Murray fight. He was super past prime against cotto.Comment

its true, i saw all of this and no he didnt look dazed he looked frustrurated, im thinking because of the kneehttp://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/m...-tear-symptoms
Symptons of a "none" serious injury
You may not be able to straighten your knee
The knee can also feel "wobbly" or unstable,
or give way without warning.
especially torn ligaments, you may have increased pain, swelling, a feeling that the knee is unstable, and difficulty walking.
Pretty much saw all of that during the fight.
An example of the knee giving way far too easily would be knockdowns 2 & 3.
Sergio didn't even look dazed like somebody who got knocked half way across the ring should look.Comment

Cotto didn't make him look that way? He was purely outclassed with no answer for the left hook. You honestly think he would of had an answer for that hook 2 years ago? He didn't even know how to adjust himself. Having no legs or being a grandpa in the ring doesn't take away the fact of adjustment. Cotto cutting the ring setting up those hooks made Sergio look amateurish, blame the legs/age all you want.Originally posted by THE REED™No, not because he lost.
Because of how he looked.
And it wasn't Cotto who made him look that way.
Two different worlds.Comment
