“We kept getting pushed across the room in terms of making a deal that was more favorable for Cotto from the beginning," DiBella said. “Our fighter wanted the fight and we moved very quickly and then we sat for about a month waiting for Miguel and [Cotto’s lawyer] Gabby [Penagaricano] and Top Rank."
“He is like a 15-year-old girl, like a little ballerina," Martinez said. “If he’s not on the left side of the poster, he’s not going to fight. If he can’t come out of the dressing room last, he’s not going to fight. If he doesn’t get the referee that he wants, he’s not going to fight. It’s just been ridiculous with all these little things."
Martinez views Cotto’s insistence in getting his way on every small detail in this fight as just more of his arrogance. Martinez said he first witnessed it several years ago when he saw Cotto in Mexico. He said he admired Cotto and went up to meet him when he saw him. But Cotto dismissed him.
“It wasn’t so much about how he was treating me, but how he was treating everyone else, even the guy who was bringing the water [to the table]," Martinez said. “It bothered me because he’s not better than anyone else. Whether it’s me, Mayweather or a guy sleeping on the street, we’re all equal."

“This time there won’t be any issues with my movement," Martinez said. “My leg is very strong. The only reason I’m not running now is for precaution."
