In my mind I saw the fight 115 - 113 for Cotto. The round I bolded out were close rounds and could have went either way. Round 2 Clottey landing those upper cuts did it for me in that round but Cotto was still active and fought a close contention. I scored Round 10 for the Champion Cotto he hit Clottey with some good body work and out did Clottey's late left hook with a better one near the bell. I thought Clottey did NOT do enough in the last 3 rounds to win any of them. In the 12th round Clottey did more complaining to Mercante then he did fighting. If he would have stepped it up sooner in the round rather then in the last 30 seconds or so he may have won the fight. I agree it was a close decision and the 166-111 was off but 114-113 and the 115-112 were pretty much in the ball park depending on hw you scored rounds 2 and 10. Anyone ne else have anything to add????Lefty

The red ones are the ones that differentiate themselves from your perspective. Anyway, my final scorecard: 115-112 for Cotto. I distinctly remember rounds 2 and 10 being hard to score, though. Round 10 especially...Clottey was boxing fairly well but Cotto got in two big left hooks at the end that could've had him stealing the round. Overall, what a great fight!
