    i don't think cotto/torres was a classic... cotto should've beaten torres easy. torres is B+ at best.

      The one thing that people forget is that Torres was taking every other round off. You can't do that against Cotto. And look at Torres in the corner after every round...he was VERY uncomfortable, he looked defeated.

      There is no question in my mind that Cotto's excellent body work in this fight won it for him. Torres was hurting the whole fight, even after the rounds where he hurt Cotto he looked worried.

            Keep you mouth shut, if you've never fought then your opinion should be negated.

                      Torres may be a B+ Class fighter, but that doesn't make him any less a threat. Cotto has defense liabilities, and when he traded with the faster guy who could really punch he got caught. It was a classic because both guys were getting hurt in pretty much every round.
