Cotto is a bleeder bro. he has been cut against all B-A level competition at 147. Judah, Mosley, Margarito, and now Clottoey. The an bleeds and it was an accidental clash of heads, and both men walked forward causing it. It could just as easily have been Clottey cut.Comment

you only think Pac is a A class fighter b/c he fought all over the hillers.
everyone thought hatton was a A class oponent when his fight was coming up with May. and may showed Hatton was far from a A class fighter.

If anyone has lost respect for Cotto after last night, I honestly don't know what to say anymore.Comment

There is nothing wrong with punching and moving, Clottey was close to winning it and could have stole it but he faded in the last 3 rounds... he was chasing but doing jack ****, Cotto was moving in jabbing moving out... counter punching. It was the smartest thing for Cotto to do at that stage and it made him steal the final three rounds to get the decision. I had it 114-113 Cotto.Seriously, dude ran all night and faught like a *****. Clottey clearly won the fight. Winky had a bad cut against B-Hop and looked alot better then Cotto did. Cotto ran and didn't do much, then when he did go on the attack, it was in the last 20 seconds of the round and nothing really landed. Where as Clottey did his all to chase Cotto down but what for? He wasn't chasing Cotto who boxed beautifully (Calderon, Mayweather, Guzman or B-Hop) he chased a man who didn't want to fight and wanted to get away.
Come on Dom, lets be fair... we see Floyd move in jab, hook, move out, staying on the back foot and countering and there is nothing wrong with that... this is Boxing not street fighting... not all fights have to be toe to toe wars. If you feel the best way to win the fight is to punch and move then so be it, it worked well for him and he got the decision from it.
At the end of the day this is Boxing, it has tactics... not everyone has to go in swinging like a mad man... if moving in punching moving out countering is the best way to win the fight at that point then they should do that to win the fight. Cotto shown heart to fight through the cut, and was smart to do that in the last 3 rounds to steal those rounds for a decision. Cotto shouldn't have slammed him but it was most likely because he was pissed off with the cut and wanted to please the fans.
I give props to both fighters, Cotto for showing heart to fight through that cut and going on to win the decision when coming towards the end of the fight it looked like he was going to lose, and Clottey for giving Cotto troubles and showing he isn't as much of an underdog as people think.
I would love to see a rematch, it was great to see this fight and it would be great to see them do it all over again.

Dominico, you root for Floyd so how can you say you lost respect for Miguel over the reasons you gave. Floyd does that **** and does it all the time. If Floyd had that kind of cut against a fighter like Josh he would of lost. Anyways, Id rather people hate Miguel because we don't need the fence sitters. Either love the guy or hate the guy he will still beat Floyds ass!Comment

I don't know if it's that huge cut or if Cotto is damaged goods but Cotto didn't look the same in that fight.
anyway, you try fighting with one eye against a touch opponent like Clottey and see how it goes.. I knew nothing was gonna satisfy you haters tonight. Even if he would have won a clear UD y'all still would have found something to hate on.
If anything **** Clottey for being a cheater and then a whiny little *****.Comment

How did Clottey cheat? Come on, I think Cotto had great heart and I give him props for that, I thought Cotto won but Clottey never cheated.I don't know if it's that huge cut or if Cotto is damaged goods but Cotto didn't look the same in that fight.

Also, you shouldn't go on about the haters will always find something to hate on because that is what your like with Floyd, the guy can do anything and you will be negative.
Either way, people are being too hard on Miguel, great heart... he won a close fight IMO and I give him credit for that...Comment
