obstacle in making Cotto vs Martinez

[VaBoriKua2012]

According to the WBC, if the 160 lbs champion Sergio Martinez decides to fight with Miguel Cotto on Saturday, June 7th in New York, he could be stripped of the title because the Argentinian has not made clear its position health and therefore can not make his mandatory fight with the No. 1 ranking in Mexico, Marco Antonio Rubio, who would not be willing to wait for Martinez recovers so Rubio would be contesting the vacant title

so basically he needs to fight Rubio first, then Cotto in June

So fight Rubio in February and Cotto in June if you still have your belts

jesus christ **** rubio lol

[Hougigo]

Sergio needs a tune up anyway....get Rubio out of the way.
But Rubio might press Sergio and see how well his rickity body takes him

[Russian Crushin]

I thought Rubio had a fight in Feb.

Unless they want him to face rubio after that fight

[Jack Napier]

Cotto-Martinez is driven by money, not merit
Cotto isn't even a good JMW, Cotto at MW is a joke
and even if it was about the title, WBC belt means nothing
technically, Sergio is still the world champ, screw his paper belt
Murray should get a rematch over Rubio being ordered though

[Russian Crushin]

They're not risking losing to rubio

Plus they would have to fight in a month or 2, not happening

[Hougigo]

WBC pick the weirdest times to enforce their rules....

[FrenchDeLaHoya]

if your gna enforce rubio at 60 against his then enforce lara at 54 against his
unless this is a ploy for martinez to hurry up nd get a deal dealt with

if your gna enforce rubio at 60 against his then enforce lara at 54 against his

Thing is they have to enforce it with Rubio because he took them to court and won. So the WBC basically has no choice but to have Rubio step aside himself
