Cotto-Martinez

I finally had the chance to watch last week's Cotto-Martinez middleweight championship fight. Great win for Cotto, who put on an intelligent "master class" as he took down the champ. Kudos to Martinez, who lasted nine rounds on two bad knees. The only cruddy part of the fight was having to listen to Larry Merchant call the action. I can't stand Merchant's perpetually cynical, dry and often as*holish commentary.
