I think he might be starting to lose it a little bit. I'm not too sure though. I though the same when he didn't look so good beating Juan Esquer but then he went on to dominate Dieppa and beat Cazares again so who knows.
Watching the fight live on Saturday I was unable to score it but after just rewatching it I think a draw was a fair decision. And as much as I hate to say it, it really seemed like Calderon didn't want to fight anymore he stopped fighting and just displayed how the cut was bothering him so they got a doctor to look at it again. Cotto's cut was twice as bad and he fought like 9 rounds with it.
Calderon just hasn't seemed as sharp recently as he used to be, and his defense not as good. Maybe it was because of the long lay off? He's 34 yeard old too, he's not young anymore.
I would like to see Calderon-Mayol fight again. I think it would answer a lot of questions...unless a cut happens again which is probable. I would also like to see Calderon get on shot on HBO and make some good money. But first, he needs to take care of business with Mayol.
