How did you score Cotto vs Mosley?

[bigneli]

That's kind of dumb to say Shane was hugging. He held on the inside. And why not? Why would you let Cotto batter you to the body. He was already landing heavy shots to the body. Shane was just trying to take some of it away from Cotto.

That's not dumb at all. And it wasn't like Shane wasn't coming forward and not staying in range.

With that said I think Cotto took the middle rounds. But the last 3-4 he landed a few good shots going backward but not enough to win those rounds decisively. The fact is Shane had the opportunity to blitz Cotto and put him away when something was obviously wrong with Cotto in round 9 I think ( I could be wrong).

Cotto won a close one.

I would have done the same thing it was good strategy to prevent getting batter down, my point was that a lot of people were commenting that Cotto had an ugly fight because he was hugging. The one hugging was Mosley, but to me was smart hugging. I also think Cotto fought a great fight and knew what he wanted to do all along. He also did great good to his career and health by running in the 12th like he did, nothing wrong with that. About the 9th round you are right, I also believe there was something wrong with Cotto and even on the 10th he was having trouble. Mosley also looked very frustrated rounds 4-6. Great fight.

It would be nice to see the cards of the inner circle.

I had the EXACT same card as you Addy & I agreed with your points your previous post. Very close fight but Mosley closed that gap by sweeping rounds 9-12.

I also thought Mosley buzzed him with a sharp right to the chin but the ref kinda killed the momentum after that shot by cleaning the canvas. I also thought he hurt Cotto tot he body on a few occasions but Cotto recovered & kinda played it off like he wasn't hurt.

I honeslty had it 114-114 i may be giving a little too much credit to Cotto or just being hard on my man Shane though....i switched some rounds to make it a draw because i initially thought mosley won 115-113 but i thought Cotto was more effective so i switched one of the early rounds.......so either 114-114 or 115-114 mosley...

Sounds exactly right to me.

Sounds exactly right to me.

it was just one of those times when i thought a fighter did just enough to maybe pull off the fight...yet i didnt feel like he REALLY won....thats why i decided to switch it to a draw....but honestly i think Mosley edged out most of the close rounds....
