I just rewatched cotto vs clottey

[keepthemhandsup]

Yesterday when i saw it i didnt score it but felt it coulda gone either way today this morning i saw it again and had cotto 114-113 i felt like he won alot of the early rounds 1 3 4 6 round 2 and 10 were close but i gave those to clottey along with 5 7 8 and 9 but then 11 and 12th he wasnt really doing to much and cotto was throwing more. Alot of people hating on cotto but he had the ballz to face clottey plus he had to fight him with one eye basically the whole fight. During the first 3 rounds ihe was fighting ok with a high guard 2 i think if the headbutt wouldnt have happened he woulda won more convincingly but never the less he won the fight. Alot of people here crazy saying 8 to 4 for clottey or 8-4 for cotto its crazy i can see 6-6 for either guy maybe 7-5 but tahts a maybe but 8-4 hell no for none of them

good post

if anyone scored the fight it should be at least by 2 points

but i said before the fight that clottely gonna have to KO cotto because the judges wasn't gonna let him win the fight at all.

cotto is a warrior.lots of crddit and respect for him.he survived pretty well against clottey.cause he couldve quit the fight after 4 rounds and get easy win.BUT HE KEPT FIGHTING FOWARD very brave

thats exactly what steve bunce said on setanta. Cotto could have taken the easy route out and won after 4 rounds as soon as the cut started but he risked it against a world class and very very tough fighter. I think he may have decided to fight on to bury the demons of the tony fight and show he has the heart of a lion and doesnt want to let his fans down by taking the easy route.

Had it 114-113 Clottey, but could see it going 114-113 for Cotto also. There is now way that any judge th€at scored this fight 116-111 should be able to score another championship fight.

Also, these commissions should really start to regulate the advertisements on the mats. These fighters are really being put at risk of serious injuries. There were 21 times where I saw Clottey slip and a few times that Cotto slipped.

I had it 114-113 for Clottey.

The scored could not have been any wider for either guy. It was a close fight.

One thing is true, however... Clottey made Cotto look very bad in this fight.

Guys, rewatch round one... I think you can score that round 9-9. I felt it was all Clottey. Either way though, I gave it to Cotto 10-8

i dont think its 9-9 round cause it wasnt like clottey was winning big that round maybe by one or 2 more punches nothing big though

[Don Flamenco]

it could have gone that way but in no way shape or form was it a robbery 114-113 for either guy or maybe 115-112 could be aceptable 2 but nothing more than that

Agreed. The only reason I felt was questionable was the judge that had it 116-111 for Cotto.

There should be more transparency in boxing maybe even show how the judge is scoring the fight while the fight is happening with a video that can be played later and at the very least show each and every judges scorecard after the fight.
