      Cotto CLEARLY won the 11th and 12th, it isn't even debatable.

        Close fights are called gifts in this article?

        How about a gift from me to you, a kick in the nuts.

          Agree, Cotto won the last 2 rounds and the score of the judge with 115-112 is correct.

          I liked both fight fightes but Cotto won this fight. No robbery or draw.

            And straight up, BoxingScene should be ashamed of themselves for using such a horrible article.

                I agree with the people here who have said that this site shouldn't have published this article. T.K. Stewart is a good writer but this is just ridiculous.

                  I scored it 114-113 for Cotto.

                  It was not a gift decision, although the judge that scored it 116-111 was too generous to Cotto. Clottey had a great opportunity to win but let it slip away by not doing enough in the late rounds.

                    Yeah, They shouldnt have gone with an article like this Imho, This is why am begining to hate how the media seem to be influencing boxing.

                      Come on now. Cotto did enough to win the fight. He was cut bad. It was a great fight. Cut him some slack.
