I'm watching Cotto v Clottey here now for the first time...

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

says who?!?!.......or this is your own 2 pennies?!?.......how the phuck could anyone know something like that?!?......I need to phuckin' know!!!!

Calm down.

If you cant see how he deducted that then you need to rethink.

If you dnt have a eye, you dont see from that side, meaning anything comming from that side you wont say, and it will hit you. If you have that eye, you can see anything comming from that side, and you can block or dodge anything comming your way. Thats how **** works !!!!!!!

What I don't understand is how can anyone hate Cotto? How can anyone hate Clottey? How can anyone hate Pacquiao? How can anyone hate Paul Williams? How can anyone hate Marquez? How can anyone hate Pavlik or Froch? etc...

They are fighters who will go above and beyond and fight anyone. They are true fighters and it sickens me that some will use ethnicity blindingly in a way to downgrade an opponent. There should be more boxing fans here. Not fans of bloodlines.

Well said. Problem is a lot of these clowns that post on here love boxing, but never had the nuts to step into the ring and don't know what it takes. Experts at judging people and talking crap about people they don't even know.

no one hates cotto. everyone hates those ricans (not all ricans) that think cotto is invincible. cotto is very very vulnerable.

I always thought that choosing to fight clottey was crazy. Cotto should've fought floyd or pacman before Clottey. Clottey is crazy and VERY hard to knock down or knockout. Why do you think pacman, mosley, hopkins or floyd are avoiding Clottey. No way Margarito fights Clottey again. Leave CLOTTEY ALONE WELTERWEIGHTS !

Yes.. Pacman and B-Hop are very much avoiding Clottey..

I feel you my dude.......but HOW could anybody possibly know that Clottey STILL wouldn't have landed those right hands.........Cotto gets tagged alot.......by what? right hands and uppercuts........you KNOW I think Cotto is a BEAST but he cant defend for **** my dude.......thats my point.

Mosley has a good right hand, and barely landed it on Cotto.

Mosley has a good right hand, and barely landed it on Cotto.

what?!?!?!? did you watch the fight?!?........all Shane landed was over hand rights......ALL night long!!!

If you weren't scoring the fight, and went off momentum, there was a definite point in which Clottey's determination and skill were combining to make it look like victory was certainly his. Miguel was looking bothered by the cut, Joshua was getting through his guard, and Clottey's defense was allowing him to open up on Cotto when he chose, not having to worry as much about the punches coming his way.

All in all, though, when you score it I think Cotto got away with a close one. One of those razor-thin, could go either way, type of decisions. The sort where you instantly knew people would yell, 'robbery' even though either guy could've really walked away with a 115-114 type of score.

Cotto, for me, might very well have won the battle but lost the war. He kept his belt, got the 'W' but Clottey was one who gained more star power in that fight. Cotto, expected to win and on an elite level, will not be pleased to see the wire-thin victory against a guy who, in a loaded division, isn't necessarily a top-tier win. Clottey, on the other hand, can now argue he performed better than division elite Mosley against Cotto, and point to his performance to line up some notable future opponents.

Cotto Show heart in that fight, but i wish i would throw more, when he got clottey in the corner and started to swing away and then back off i was so pissed i guess he justgas out or something

I'm watching the fight for a 6th time haha...The compubox numbers seem way of too me. Just watched the 6th round, and I did not see Clottey land 25 punches in that round....hell, I didn't see him throw 58.

Compubox is very, very flawed.
