    I agree,HBO is messing up boxing
    there were more than a few times where Clottey was dominating the rounds, Cotto was running, then hit him with a flurry, most blocked by Clottey, or a left hook and Jim, Emanny, and Max would cream their pants and say that is was such a close round, and ot could go either way....

    I was thinking, Clottey clearly dominated the round....

    I think with the way they were announcing the fight, with the bias, and them saying the judges were not experienced.... I think they were hinting and trying to justify the bad decision that was going to come...

    Basically I think they were foreshadowing what was to come with the decision... A bad decision....

      The highlights shown in one round. When it showed Cotto landing a flurry and running to the other side and Cotto dominated that round. Showed that bit twice at the break. That did it for me.

        I thought they were very pro Clottey last night. I think I heard Kellerman and Steward praises Clotteys early eyecatching and accurate work on the stream, Lampley was a little bias perhaps but I didn't think it was that bad.
