It looked to me like Cotto didn't even train right or something. I've never seen him swing so wide and neglect the jab so much before.
dude had a substantial reach disadvantage against a guy who threw a ****load of jabs, his best bet was to fight the way he did, in an ambush style leading with power shots. only problem was Cotto was gassed after 6-7 rounds
Cotto's mouth was hanging open after 6 rds

When Cotto got on the inside he didn't throw enough punches. He would just stand there waiting....when he let his hands go, he landed punches. Like I said, it looked like Cotto didn't properly train for this fight.Last edited by mathed; 12-02-2012, 09:51 AM.
