    Cotto / NYC

    I think he needs to start fighting out of New York. I honestly think he got a biased score on that fight. If anything I would have at least gave Cotto the fight by that 10-8 first round but these judges did a lopsided score in Cotto's favor.

    Did they count the bodyslam as a knockdown or some ****? Because from that point on Cotto wasn't doing ****. The fight started to look like a Margarito-Cotto remake. Cotto was getting whaaped in the head and backing off trying to be pernell whitaker and not block his face. Clottey dropped hammers on his head, rocked his ass and made him back up. It's sad to see the score that damn lopsided.

    Split decision my ass. I had Clottey winning the fight but I can see how Clottey could lose by the 10-8 first round but these judges didn't even have it like that at all. Whatever happened to ring generalship? punches landed? damage from punches? All that ****. Cotto did what? Throw jabs, did one flurry the entire night(which didn't even hurt Clottey), and back up all night?

    Should Cotto start fighting outside of New York, to get some fair judging?

        haha, im serious though. Clottey was robbed. They threw all of the criteria out of the window and scored jabs like they were power punches.

        If that **** was in LV, hell, anywhere else but PR, Cotto would have lost.

            Close fight. Could have gone either when depending on how you scored a couple of rounds. I had Cotto winning 114-113 but wouldn't argue with some having the same score for Clottey. Of course because Cotto won everyone will say it's because they are in NY....but the fact of the matter is that it was a very close and competitive fight with constant shifts in momentum. One guy had to win, and last night it was Cotto.

            Cotto not fight in NY? Have you ever been to a Cotto fight in NY? Cotto should deffinately fight in NY.
