    How didn't Clottey win that fight last night? I can't understand it

    His plan was flawless IMO... get KD'd in the first round, do **** all for the next few, get battered on the ropes for the sixth, then - when Cotto's totally ****ed up and looking to quit (Amigorito II?) - let him off the hook and take your foot off the gas. Sure, Clottey wasn't throwing punches for the last couple of rounds and Cotto was catching him coming in, but Clottey was the one moving forward, as he said. The direction of movement is what wins rounds, after all.

    Some ****s say things like "judges score fights over twelve rounds", but if you consult compubox - the best way to score a fight IMO - then it says Clottey landed more punches.

    What a robbery.

      Have I red K'd you then?

      I never red K someone for just having a difference of opinion, only the way an opinion is expressed.

        clottey lost the fight by being a dumbass. cotto would have won with two eyes.

          Yeah, I do think that the cut played a factor, although Cotto's heart/stamina is troubling.

          It amazes me how many pricks don't seem to realise you score fights round by round.

              clottey won the fight imo. he gave away a few rounds, but still deserved to come out on top. reminds me of DLHs BS decision over quartey, that one was far worse though. i just hope cotto is more of a man than DLH was and gives clottey a rematch.

              also butterball is ignorant acting like theres no way clottey won. it was a close fight, i wouldnt dismiss anyone for thinking eighter fighter won. it was very close.

                    and uncut cotto wouldve stopped clottey..

                    clottey had his chances..

                    but seriously if cotto was fighting pacman and he was cut
                    pacman wouldve stopped cotto..

                    maybe a rematch..but i;m sure cotto wants margarito first..
