Good fight to see who is the man at 160 once and for all. I honestly think Martinez is damaged goods now after a masterful 11 rounds with Chavez. He got some serious injuries against Murray in a fight he really should have lost and will have been out of the ring well over a year by the time he fights Cotto.
I still think a 80% Martinez will beat Cotto but i don't like his chances against GGG. If it was 2010 Martinez i think he could do it but this is a 'holy war'.
Hopefully Martinez sticks by his word.
so wanting to fight a guy who has not established himself as an elite Middleweight or fighter period makes him a legend?
How can it be a Fight of the Year contender if no one has seen it?
The fact that Sergio has to fight Golovkin to "go up a lot" in your view is ridiculous. He may be getting old, maybe too old to remain champion much longer, but he has proven himself. Golovkin has not.
Just like Ward has proven himself, Golovkin has not.
@Rich: lol? you gonna hashtag your crap too? I'm just being real, not feeding people a bunch of bullshit. It doesn't matter if you think he is boring or not. My statements remain true.
I hope it gets made. GGG's team also said they don't want lara.
The impression was that Sergio and his promoter were running scared from GGG. Apparently that is not the case. Sergio has gone up a lot in my opinion after this statement.
This fight will be a Fight of the Year contender. The last ride of Maravilla Martinez! Cannot wait.
