Sergio Martinez vs Miguel Cotto June 7th HBO PPV

[gilgamesh]

I reckon Sonsona is winning this, but it's been kinda close. Pretty slow pace through the middle portion of the bout here.

Round 9

Vazquez is crouching and rolling into clinches, getting Sonsona in pincer holds with his arms crooked and held out wide. Looping lead lefts by Sonsona, missing or just grazing the head of Vazquez before each clinch. Sonsona is pulling back and dodging as Vazquez lunges wildly and misses. Vazquez swipes backhanded and nicks Sonsona on the outside. Vazquez holds.

10-9 Sonsona

88-81 Sonsona

[sucracristo]

sonsona needed that 9th round and he got it. the fight is his barring a lucky
shot from vasquez

Round 10

They both go down in a heap! Ring around the rosy! Tackle, by I believe Vazquez. Sonsona is wrestling on the inside, arms locked with Vazquez's up by their faces. Sonsona is clinging on and catching a ride as Vazquez shoulders him into the ropes. Left uppercuts by Sonsona. Vazquez is jumping in and out, throwing sloppy rights downstairs. Lefts up top by Sonsona, grazing or ricocheting off Vazquez's glove. Sonsona is carried into a corner, Vazquez's arms wedged tightly up into his pits. Extremely messy, almost no clean punching now. Lots of hugging both ways, neither even attempting to disguise it. Weak forearm chops inside by Vazquez, blocked. More high-arm grappling. Sonsona pushes off. Another clinch. Sonsona breaks free and loads up a BIG LEFT - and it grazes Harvey Dock!!!!!

10-9 Sonsona

98-90 Sonsona

[gilgamesh]

The referee almost got hit by Sonsona a little bit before he DID get hit by Vazquez

Sonsona's gonna get the decision I figure.

I was thinking they could make a gif at the way he avoided the punch from Sonsona, and then backed away and tugged at his pants

[crusader]

holy fuckk at 96-92 Vasquez

[diddy]

96-92 Vazquez?!? Bahahahahha.

[gilgamesh]

96-92 Vazquez was heinous

The right man got it on the other 2 cards thankfully, and got the Decision victory.

[sucracristo]

the 96-92 card for Vasquez was bad. I thought it was closer than that
for sonsona but to have Vasquez winning by that is baffling

[crusader]

Can't wait for Martinez-Cotto

[gilgamesh]

effing jacked for this one!

Me too. I've been looking forward to this one big time ever since it was even being rumored, and talked about. It's gonna be a great fight!!! I have no doubt about that.

[digzee]

Last minute predictions- I'm going for Martinez to cut him up and stop him in the 9th.

[Boxing Prospect]

Can I just say I really enjoyed the Sonsona fight, albeit it for the wrong reasons...

Cotto ud

[crusader]

166 Martinez
161 Cotto

Apparently

[diddy]

The ropes read "Cotto".

Oh brother Martinez may be in for a robbery here.

[Ihsahn]

Cotto ud

I second that, I'd like to see Sergio win but I don't think his body will hold up unfortunately. Side note, I am surprised that Cotto came out first, wonder if Freddie Roach talked him into it.

[Uppercut1]

Man, I like both these guys equally (no homo)

Can't decide who I'm rooting for most.

I'm expecting a Martinez UD win though

[Uppercut1]

ohhhhhh shiiiiiiittttttttt

[sucracristo]

no way!!!

[Ihsahn]

This is getting ugly

[CheckHook]

Martinez just cant even see that left hook at all....

[digzee]

What a round!!

[Mad Artist]

Round 1

Martinez comes out and feels out with a few right jabs up on Cotto's third eye region. Low left jabs by Cotto. Martinez is angling left, keeping his left glove up by his chin to block Cotto's jabs and 1-2s. Right jabs by Martinez. BIG LEFT HOOK BY COTTO. Martinez wobbled!! Martinez is rushed into the ropes, Cotto stepping aside to cut off his escape, nearly corralling him into a corner. Martinez jumps laterally, seeking an exit. More hooks by Cotto, and chopping rights. Martinez DOWN!! Cotto rushes in with left hooks and right hands!! Martinez tries ducking and rolling with the shots but takes most of them across the hairline, his balance affected by each. Martinez down again. Up and DOWN AGAIN IMMEDIATELY as Cotto barrels into him with a powerful left hook, mostly a push but ruled a knockdown. Martinez is on his bike in the last few seconds!!

10-6 Cotto

[Uppercut1]
