    Clottey should be the opponent in June though, and it's as clear as day there is no counter argument.
    cosign.

Also I really have NO faith in the judges because we all have witnessed some pretty messed up decisions in boxing history. Bottom line, Clottey beat Zab into submission and that speaks in volumes.
    2 judges had it 86-85 and 1 judge had it correctly 87-84........judah was clearyl losing.....it was tactical at first, but clottey was clearly beginning to impose his will.....

    that's what the article's about right? not margarito, collazo, or judah?

    it's either berto, clottey, or cintron.........and i think we can all agree clottey should get it, but berto would definitely be more deserving than cintron.

I think he knew he was on his way to getting beat and possibly stopped and because he's so clueless, he thought he was ahead on the scorecards.(No way the cards should have been so close IMO. I think I gave Zab like 1 or 2 rounds.)

      But Judah wanted to quit against Cotto too, he took a knee in the 10th. He just didn't have the "luxury" of having such a bad cut from a headbutt, so if he quit he would have been looked at as a *****.

      Either way, both wins were equally impressive IMO.
      I wouldn't put it passed Zab to premeditate that move to get out of being KO'd. Look what he did to PBF when he was on the way to getting stopped in the 10th. Judah couldn't handle 147 & all his loses has proved that.

          cotto needs to fight either clottey or berto...cintron looked horrible against martinez, and i think he even lost. clottey to me is the most intriguing fight

                Of course now Arum is giving Cotto more decision making power since he may be concerned of his departure when his contract is up. He should pick the one that makes the least money for Arum. He can make up the difference with another promoter next year.

                  Who was shocked? Not me. Clottey was whipping Zab's ass in that fight & Zab's face showed it. At the fight Zab just had all of his peoples there to support him and make noise but he clearly got bested no controversy there.
