that was a bit over the top. wasn't it?
I was watching the fight in a pro-cotto crowd and everyone put a funny face when they heard that.
114-113....115-112
no way it was more than that
What do you expect? In boxing everyone eventually gets screwed by the judges.
That score is laughable and a slap in the face to Clottey who fought his ass off.
I wouldn't call it a slap in the face but it did seemed stretched out. It all depends on what the Judge was looking for

especially last night because clottey's defense is very good even if cotto landed a punched you couldnt see it. i remember steward said cotto is not landing while the replay came to air and i saw every punch landing. the fight was horrible. i mean it cuz of the cut. both fighter are great but it was not a Fight of the Year candidate Did u not enjoy it? I loved it! Defo no FOTY tho. I got the Wally Matthews commentery, he was pretty good
I had it 114-113 Cotto... the judges were blind I think, no way he won it by so many rounds... I still had him winning though.
Have u watched again yet Spacey? I was surprised at my card second time around, Clottey really dont let his hands go enough.
Good point bro.
Personally i think punch stats are way over rated, its not like they are completly accurate

this is true people for example
fighter A landed 100 punches in a round and then 10 punches the other 11 round and outputched the other fighter who landed 15 punches everyround.
fighter A has 200 punches
fighter B has 180 punches
the round he landed 100 punches still a 10-9 round just be Good point bro.

Remember that the judges score the fights on a round to round basis. 116 111 at glance may look foolish but it's not hard to believe that he thought Cotto won 8 rounds considering some of the rounds were quite close.
I personally had Cotto winning 7 rounds, Clottey 5.

damn. just amazing how a professional judge can be soo blind compared to an average viewer on tv.
don't forget drunk, restless and in a party. clearly my eyes are better than the judges
Cotto is the man for fighting on.
It would have been so easy. And Clottey really needs to be careful with the head he is wreckless so he kind of deserves to phucked on that now and again.
Did you guys see that fight on ITV4 when that Ghanian chap nutted that guy and was awarded a TKO victory under British ring rules. Damn.......
He celebrated it like he just Tyson'd the chap.
Yeah i saw that shit, was embaressing! lol
Yeah he is as wreckless as phuck, dont actually think he ment it this time but he sure dont mind driving in with the head, i mean its not like he's gonna come off worst with a noggin like THAT

I copped out on scoring round 9 like a pussy.
And wrote (important round) in comma's.
I'd eventually give it to Clottey. After the fight was finished.
I'd be one hell of a judge. Lol Nice! Haha
went to bed at 1AM to wake up at 3:30AM to come to work, had a party at my place to see the fight then they all woke me up at 3:30
It was an ugly fight man. Cotto had to reach deep but if he wanted to all he had to do is say he couldn't go on after the 4th. People are ignoring that. I'm glad he did what he did. he deserves a good downtime for a while now
Lol u must be shagged, i know i am, i got pissed at a BBQ during the day came home and crashed out for 3-4 hours and never went back to bed after the fight!
Yeah the Doc gave him an out, and he MUST have known he was up on the cards especially with the KD but he kept fighting like the champ he is
I gave him round 9 but quite easily coulda went to Cotto

Hows things man, good nite?
Yeah check it out again, i mean a good few were close and i wouldnt argue with u if u dont change ur mind im just sayin that Clottey tried to be too precise and didnt let his hands go enough
Top fight tho between two top fighters in there own division, imagine that!

I think 115-112 was fair enough.
That's what I had. Clottey bummed himself by but not working enough after round 8, he arguably still won round 9 still though. But if Clottey just kept his hands moving he would have won.
