The Miguel Cotto vs. Sergio Martinez championship fight is coming up right around the corner. In the latest editions of the new HBO Boxing online video series, Hey Harold, Harold Lederman provides his thoughts on the fight, and on both fighters, Cotto and Martinez. Take a look.
Lederman believes that the fight is going to be a war, and that it’s going to be a great fight to see live. He loves Martinez’s movement and southpaw skill, but knows he’s susceptible to being hit and hurt. Still, he believes Maravilla has improved greatly over the years.
As for Miguel Cotto, Lederman talks about how Madison Square Garden is Cotto’s home. Cotto fights better at MSG, according to Lederman, as he feeds off the fans and the support he gets. Of course, Cotto looked great against Delvin Rodriguez, but Sergio Martinez is not Delvin Rodriguez.
