Cotto's Low Blows?

[Dirt E Gomez]

What it boils down to isn't that the Low Blows cost Judah in the later rounds.. but at that moment in that short window for both of the low blows Zab was having fairly good rounds. It's not an excuse for Zab losing but it doesn't make a case for bad luck.

In that sense, any moment of a fight can be an outcome changer so it's impossible to say that it didn't effect the fight as a whole. Would it effect the final outcome as to who won? Nobody can say.

it hurts when i get hit in the nuts....

like i cant breath...like it makes u feel like u have to **** and piss but theres no **** and piss to **** and piss...stomach all hurts....and you know what else hurts when u get hit in the nuts?....the nuts hurt when you get kicked in the nuts

BTW i tried to find Cotto fights on youtube just now besides the one against Zab...there aren't any...maybe cuz he low blowed everyone...

Did the hole in his face and cut on his eyebrow (from a deliberate butt) affect Cotto? No.

Enough of the excuses.

dude your avatar is some funny ****, Im surprised you didnt start a Sin rant.

You make some excellent points.. Great stuff.


As Boxing fans we all know how important those situations are where fighters get hurt, and how much of a difference having even just seconds to rest can change the course of a fight..

People can call it what they want to - but it was genius of Diego Corrales to spit out the mouth piece during the 10th of his war with Castillo on those KD's..

It most likely won him the fight.


Judah was robbed of his opportunity to finish by the first low blow.

Anyone who is being even REMOTELY honest would admit that..

OK the first low blow was still on the belt, most referee's call these shots legal. The second was right on the ding dong tho and probably hurt like a MOFO! This may or may not have affected Zab for a round or two but if it really was an issue I dont see Zab not constantly complaining and maybe his dad stopping the fight. For him to make an isssue of this again and again is pretty weak considering what he did to Mayweather which from my observations was m ore likely a retaliation punch.

Maybe cotto just likes feeling guys nuts. He's just trying to mix business with pleasure. Can't be mad at a guy for that.

The first thing either fighter wanted to address at the podium after the fight were the low blows.. The first thing.

Our perception of what seemed significant doesn't always match up with what the fighters tell us when it's over.

This time it did.

This is also something else that I understand as a person who has competed in fighting sports..

Cotto apologized to Zab first thing because it was SIGNIFICANT and Miguel knows how much it helped him.. Cotto and Zab know the truth.

I was thinking the same thing....and that prolly threw Zab off like..."this guy hits me and the nuts then hugs me like Hatton"

I watched the whole thing I was already pissed BPacquiao lost...I've been trying to cover it with humor...

The lowblows were consecutive...round after round....

Zab deserves a rematch,,,,if it was any other crowd besides New York the only boos would be at Cotto for the low-blows...and yall know it....

Zab was very limited...he was cautious to go to the body cuz he didn't want to lose a point in case he did a low blow accidental...cuz it would have seemed like retaliation (spell check on that)

And he couldn't complain to Yoel with all the cameras in his face...
At the interviews you can tell Zab was hesitant to express himself about the low blows cuz that New York crowd is all about Cotto on Puerto Rican Day Parade....

And the Ref seemed like he was only talking to Zab...having conversations with him throughout the whole fight setting Cotto up for a L Hook....

Zab should get a rematch...he wasn't making excuses...for once he told the truth But it was not unlike the Little Boy Who Cried Wolf.

This thread will never die.
