Will Cotto Run From Clottey Like He Did Against Mosley And Margarito?

[krispy kreme]

Idk, i just saw him running from 9th round on, i saw it more like his will was being tested and he showed he can be beaten with pressure.

I think Cotto wanted to play it safe in the later rounds, he was out boxing Shane in the beginning. But in the championship rounds Shane got stronger. The jab was a key factor for Cotto against Shane and Judah, with Clottey it may be more difficult because he keeps a high guard.

This was asked on another forum, what do you think? Clottey a strong, rugged, 170 on fight night.

of coarse your gonna think that, no lie your always supporting the black fighter. Get it thru your little head Cotto OUTBOXED Shane and made him look foolish at times and got the W same with Tony, Just one fighter used plaster while the other fought clean

Outboxing is what Floyd did to Baldomir, what Hopkins did to Pavlik, what Morales did to Pacquiao Etc. Cotto ran. Period.

Cotto landed more massive bombs while "running" than all three of those fights combined, sooo....

moron, both cotto and mosley moved around alot in that fight. So what you're saying is that cotto and mosley both ran. And their sure slow runners compared to floyd. Since floyd is already against the ropes at the time the bell rings.

Not sure which fight you were watching.

Check the punch stats and check the straight lefts down the pipe Cotto was landing with Mosley having the look of a frustrated fighter. Cotto played the right roll and let Mosley try to chase him while Cotto was tagging him and timing Mosley.

Anyone who says he was running from Mosley I believe have a vendetta against Cotto. For what reason I don't know...

Wasnt my question, but I can provide moving pictures of the "running" if you like.

When was the last time Clottey chased anyone down or trapped them? He didn't do it against Zab let alone he hasn't KO'd anyone in quite sometime. But now he's gonna go in and KO Cotto?

I think your hate for Cotto clouds your judgement. Anyone with even the slightest bit of knowledge of Boxing would tell you Clottey can't and will not implement the same strategy Margarito did, simply because that isn't his style.

run? no. effectively move around the ring while schooling clottey? yes.

Looked like he was chasing him in the middle rounds specially when he was hurting Judah....Clottey should have won that fight by tko since the cut was caused by a punch.

I din't know out boxing your oponent is "running from". That is what Cotto did to Mosley and Margarito, he gave them a boxing clinic and Margarito end up winning because of his plaster gloves.
