This promises to be a competitive bout, which is evident in the line.  Cotto is a +200 underdog.  Martinez is a -220 favorite.

Cotto has 38 wins and only 4 losses in his colorful boxing career. He’ll be returning to a familiar venue in Madison Square Garden. He has fought ten bouts in this arena.

“It is a personal matter — a personal achievement that I want to win and I am working for it on [Saturday],” Cotto said in a recent conference call. “It doesn’t mean that I am going to be better than Wilfredo Gomez, better than Felix Trinidad, better than all of the great champions that Puerto Rico has produced. But for me, Miguel, it will be the greatest accomplishment of my career.”

The 33-year-old Puerto Rican native will be a rare underdog coming into Saturday’s fight.

Martinez, an Argentine with 51 wins and only 2 losses under his belt, expressed much bravado ahead of the big bout.

“I’m going to win the fight. I know I’m going to win by knockout,” Martinez said to HBO. “I’m absolutely convinced I’m going to do it. You made a mistake in taking this fight, Cotto. It would be impossible for me to be at a higher level. No human being can be more powerful than I am. That’s what Cotto’s going up against. He’s facing me at my best in the ring. I’m sure Cotto only took the fight after seeing my fight against Martin Murray.”

Bob Smith of BoxingNews24.com believes this one won't even be close.

"How anyone could pick Miguel Cotto over Sergio Martinez without actually working for Cotto or being Puerto Rican is beyond me.  Martinez possesses nearly every single advantage – speed, power, athleticism, technique, experience, size, skill, and so on.  Martinez has faced better opponents than Cotto with the exception of Mayweather and Pacquiao, two fighters who Cotto lost to.  And he has done so being the smaller man, but the harder puncher. "
