And now I'm freakin' amped for this fight.
I only really remember the end of the fight. The crowd at MSG was freakin' electric. Cotto was all busted and bloodied up but Clottey had taken his share of punishment. Cotto was unleashing his hooks in combination and Clottey was trying to counter him with right hands. I think it was the eleventh round where Clottey wobbles Cotto very bad, twice with counter rights.
By this time the fight had slowed down tremendously because Cotto had stopped pressing and was looking to now counter the counterpuncher to avoid getting hurt again. Clottey backs up trying to lure Cotto in for another countershot, Cotto lands first in an exchange, a clean left hook to the chin and Clottey goes down. He seems a bit confused, tries to get up at 9 and slips back down along the ropes, the fight is waved off and Cotto wins. The atmosphere was crazy man.
I hope its a good fight.
