Cotto with a pathetic win..and a boring ass fight.

[small_warrior]

people start to hate on oktay urkal, because he give he made cotto look bad.
i can't blame urkal for being tough, even if this made an ugly fight. i'm sure urkal would give a tough fight to hatton at welterweight, (it would look like hatton/collazo)

Nah nah nah people saying that are PATHETIC HATERS.

That was a good fight. It's not exciting because the scores were announced every four rounds, that's all in it. And Urkal's corner knowing that they have no chance to win the fight threw in the towel preventing the K.O. in the remaining rounds.

I couldn't believe all the **** HBO was saying about open scoring and the fight ending. Urkal was getting hit with good shots, both to the body and the head. I'm surprised he stood for a lot of them, I think he showed heart and he wasn't in it for just a payday. Plus, I don't think throwing in the towel was a mistake. He just couldn't win the fight, and we didn't need open scoring to do that. Maybe if the fight was in Germany...but then again they probably wouldn't have let him throw in the towel. He wasn't gonna win, its not like he was known for his power and still couldn have pulled a KO out of nowhere. He didn't have a realistic shot at winning and throwing in the towel was justified.

I'm not taking anything away from Urkal. He came in there to fight and he did. He was getting bombed by Cotto from all sides and he galantly took it.

But the open scoring really affected the fight. Some of the rounds were hardly fought rounds so if Urkal's corner doesn't know the actual scores I'm sure they won't throw out the towel. It's just logical because they won't risk further pain or injury to their fighter for a "loss cause".
