    Clottey doesn't deserve to win because he new what was at stake and let left his faith in the judges hand. Cotto doesn't deserve to win because he he let Clottey back into fight after the knock down. It should be a draw and know one walks away with a lost.

    The fight is scored off conecting shots period. Looking at the fight again, and looking at the connecting shots, I gave it to Clottey. You can't give a fighter a round just because it was little to know action. I don't care how bizzy a fighter is, if he's not connectiong you shouldn't give him points. I don't believe boxing is scoring arm punches. I gave cotto the 1st, hard to score the 6th and gave him the 12. Thats just going of what I seen. Another thing the side live team was saying. When Cotto was getting beat most of the round and end it with a good shots, the was saying (Maybe Cotto stole that round) Off of one good shot, Please. I thought it was, who ever landed the most punches.

    Thats my thoughts on that. They have the fight on Youtube.
    You pretty much nailed it. I also felt Clottey risked his win by letting it go to the cards knowing full well that Cotto is the house favorite.

    At one point in the fight, I thought Clottey hurt his hand again after hitting Cotto then stepping back as if to admire the shot. Can't recall the round.

    I thought Clottey would turn up the heat in the mid rounds, but he instead resorted to whining tactics hoping the ref would take a point off Cotto.

    Clottey did not impress me at all.

      I lost respect for Clottey Saturday night. I never knew he was such a cry baby. And what was up with Emmanuel Steward? Dude was jocking Clottey to the fullist..I think he even said at around round 8, that the only round Cotto won was round 1?...anywaayyysssss.

      I thought Cotto won a 114-113 fight...I definitely enjoyed it.

          In earlier responses on this thread, some posters said this thread would need to be bumped for the non morning crowd to make sure everyone gets their votes in. Alright afternoon crowd, do you work!
