    Sergio Martinez hopes to get a fight with Miguel Cotto not just for a payday but to get the hate out of his system that he has for the former world champion.

    The hatred began back in 2008 when Martinez was snubbed by Cotto. Not only was Martinez snubbed but Cotto’s arrogance and mistreatment towards others fueled the hate.

    “It began in 2008,” said Martinez. “It was February 12th. I went to greet him at a television studio and he would not even turn his head towards me to acknowledge me. He did to me what he does to the whole world.” Martinez continued, “but I am more angry about something else. When Cotto went to Mexican television studio he mistreated the people that work there and since that moment I have wanted to put a beating on him.”
