I know there's probably 1000 threads out there about Cotto-Mosley but I just wanted to post this up. I just got back from MSG and it was intense. The whole crowd was pro-Cotto but even cheered for Mosley a few times. All in all, the card was OK but the main event was more than worth it.
I had the score 116-112 for Cotto and think that he gave away the championship rounds thinking he had it in the bag. From the 10th onward, Cotto didn't do enough and wasn't really boxing as much as just backing away (while still counterpunching effectively, tho). All in all, a good showing.
Given that Shane nearly knocked him down in the 9th and 10th I would have to quibble with the rounds you chose
Quibble away, dude. Almost getting knocked down doesn't equate to winning a round. You'd have to be half an idiot to give a round based on an almost knock down when the other fighter clearly connects more and harder, right?
you had it 116-112 but gave the championship rounds to mosley? what were you scoring with your miniature puerto rican flag pen?
I had the second, a middle round (maybe 7 or 8, don't remember), 11, and 12 for Mosley. Every other round I gave to Cotto.
I didn't have a pen and I wasn't writing the scores down. I just remembered rounds and, since there were no points taken away, and no even rounds, 4 rounds to Mosley means a 116-112 scorecard for Cotto. I'm sure even the dumbest member here can keep count so it shouldn't be a surprise that I was able to score the fight while watching it.
BTW, Casita lost that fight. I had Santa Cruz up by two rounds plus the point (which was not a KD and even I saw that from my seat but you need to score it as such because of the idiot Smoger).
Mad respect for Mosley, by the way, but he did lose: hence the title. I just thought the title sounded cool so that's why I posted it.
how the fuck were you scoring the fight in the middle of that mayhem? what, did you have your pen and paper with you?
lol he already had 10-9 Cotto filled out like a tablet. No writing necessary.

yeah I know but i'm just saying if you want cotto to win then dont shout out mosleys name cuz that could affect cotto.
it only elevates miguelito's win he fought a great fighter today and won
If Cotto's that weak minded where he'll melt down because the crowd starts yelling Mosley's name instead of his then he shouldn't even in that ring. I guess he and Cintron are alike.
yeah but he didnt melt down did he? remind me, who won the fight? ok thank you
mosely deserves some respect fellow bori
