Outstanding Analysis: Cotto vs Martinez

[Bigg Rigg]

Martinez is a sportsman and has class, he didnt try to make excuses. Was pretty clear his knees were shot. As we were reminded in the Soliman fight, it is difficult to keep balance witch a knee injury.

Sergio wasn't that injured. Yuri foremans knee was blown and the way he moved was way worst than Sergio. That was an injured man. Sergio, not so much.

cotto gets zero credit from me. martinez came in that fight with a fucking knee braze on! looked like shit in a fight he had 2 years prior to knee surgeries.

I give Cotto credit, but that slow mo of round 1 actually made Sergio's legs/balance look worse to me then I originally had noticed prior to him being hurt by a punch.

I had been taking Sergio's statement that he was fine until he got hurt by a punch in round 1 with a grain of salt, but I also took it into account for crediting Cotto's victory.

In that regard the video may have been a bit counterproductive and done more a of disservice to cotto rather than its intended purpose.

smh...cotto has been finished since 2008 after the margarito fight, been losing and fighting nobodys, legless sergio just wanted money before retirement

how, in the name of all that's good, did you come up with this plainly ignorant as day observation?? fight starts, guy gets hit w/ a sledge hammer left hook, victim then never recouperates.

it was a punch, not his knee you morons. sergio LITERALLY ran across the ring to jump on cotto like in round 7 or 8. gtfoh, all you crying little beezies.

Found this video of a great analysis of Miguel Cotto vs Sergio Martinez.

For those who stated in the past that the knock downs were Sergio being off balance you will clearly see you were mistaken and where Miguel's left hooks that made the damage over and over again.

Positioning, footwork, and Miguel's potent left hook did the job here. Great job by Freddy and Miguel working together with this game plan!

that was a good laugh.

Cotto also looked great against Yuri Foreman. Very similar outcome indeed.

Yuri Foreman couldn't move for ****, Sergio though runs across the ring and haters say he's crippled.

Sergio could have ran laps around Foreman bro.

Thats a bad comparison to begin with.

Yuri Foreman hasn't been the same after he got surgery on his knee. Same goes to Martinez when he came back the fight prior. Both of their performances post surgery were aweful and far from their primed selfs.
