    I mean his career in general. His only good win is Mosley.

To me most of all the people that got butt hurt after the fight were Cotto haters. People who just wanted to see King Cotto get his ***ing face smashed in and when it didn't happen it’s all about the excuses. Oh Martinez knee caps and wrist weren't 100% and that's why Cotto won. Listen man, Martinez was very close to becoming great 5 years ago..IMO

      Wow surprise, "PRPOWERPUNCHES" with the Cotto avatar thought that travesty was a great fight.

        Mayweather, Pacquaio and Cotto have fought pretty much the same top guys but Mayweather and Pacquaio won, so they're "divas" and "cherry pickers".

        Cotto got his ass beat 75% of the time so he's a "brave warrior who will fight anyone".

        Funniest double standard I've noticed in boxing that. All you have to do to win the adoration of the masses is lose all the time.

          LOL. I thought you guys knew better than to listen to the usual delusionals? These guys have sigs with pictures of ancient fighters not because they were great, but because they were puerto rican lol. they're THE WORST.

            This fight was a huge let down, Martinez flopping all over the ring in the first round was an absolute embarrassment to the sport.

            He wasnt even getting hit flush and he fell to the canvas.

            Props to Cotto for picking the fruit when it was ripe, it was perfect timing.

              Cottos fights are always fun to watch.... You Guys know damn well the cotto-sergio fight was exciting... First round was great and the middle rounds were nervous for me because I know sergio can knock you out.. He deserves all the credit hes getting... He fighting better now then he did when he was beating up judah and mosley and them... Only boring fight cottos been in was against trout....

                I completely disagree, these are the fights that make boxing. This was a story about Cotto engaging Roach to garner for a fading career a few final fights. The previous performance was enough to get what was supposed to be a final goodbye for Cotto with Martinez taking what was supposed to be an easy payday. Instead a revitalized Cotto brings it way better than expected. This is the stuff of boxing that every once in a while things come together and the odds are defied and it makes us wonder.

                  Cotto just whooped that arse...
                  And new...

                  Honestly, the butthurt naysayers cries are almost as satisfying as the actual Cotto win itself. Lovely.

                    I know, their crying is almost as satisfying as the fight it self! These POS' dont have a cell of self respect or better yet lack of dignity!

                    These are the same people who if they are about to die and they know will scream like little POS' and beg for their lives!

                    SCUM!

                      The truth is that hardcore fans know the truth but in 10 years no one will care or remember that Sergio was like 15% in the ring had no business being there and it was really a meaningless historic win but hey.....can't blame Cotto he did what he had to do and is now legit MW champ.
