    Pac Man Quick To Judge Cotto

    It's hard to really tell if Cotto is damaged goods. It's easy to point out a sloppy performance that is true, But lets look at the facts here. Clottey is an under-rated fighter. That cut on Cotto's eye was the reason in my eyes that Cotto Looked sloppy. I don't know who is going to win a pacman cotto fight. Its a hard one to call. I know it will be a war and I know it will be worth every cent on pay-per-view.

      You think Pacquiao knocked Hatton out with a head butt?

        Great fight though, really great
        ******est **** posted so far! That "accidental" headbutt had a lot to do with Cotto's performance for the rest of the fight after it happened. That's why Clottey was connecting with the right a lot, because Cotto couldn't see out of his left eye. I bet you anything that your boy Floyd would've asked his corner to stop it, especially if he knew he was ahead in the cards like Cotto was. He showed a lot of heart which is what Clottey said before the fight, "whoever has the biggest heart wins". I was amazed at how Cotto was able to continue on after that big-ass cut! There is one thing I agree with you on, it was a great fight which is more than what can be said about most Mayweather's fights.

            Why did Cotto show more heart than Clottey?! Because he was cut? Give me a break, Clottey fought his heart out.

            If Cotto is the man you think he is, he'll fight a re-match

                Yeah i saw them. Look Cotto fought well under difficult circumstances but i don't buy "Cotto had the bigger heart so he won" People are just saying that because of the cut.

                I will give Cotto his due, he's a world champ and didn't quit like last time. Still not in the same class as Floyd though

                  Cotto showed a lot of heart, despite of that awful cut he stayed in the fight, while "cry baby Clottey" was complaining for nothing.

                    i guess i just did not feel clottey put his heart into it. if he close the fight strong he would have won ... he gave away 11-12 so i guess thats why people is saying that cotto showed more heart( cojones) i like to think the 2nd one is a better to put it

That definitely pulled the fight in Cotto's favor. If it didn't exist, then Cotto would have gotten beaten up even worse.
                      Damn Boricua paint! Somebody stop these Ricans!
