great post
I don't think Clottey was the better fighter in that fight, problem is it was compressed into a lower no. of rounds. In boxing you don't work up toil in one round, each round is it's own and Cotto won more individual rounds.
Clottey acted like a puss in the last round which made me happy that he didn't win the match. If you're in a champion ship fight you fight your heart out, you don't look to get the guy docked points, that's just deceitful.Comment

some of you know that running in the ring is not bad right? If the other fighter is prepared to be a champion he would run to him and keep pressuring. Now, the problem is holding too much. If running was bad, the ring could be as big of 3 feet lolz. Pac and Cotto now, both of them moves around.Comment

At the end of the video, Lampley sends an important message to all upcoming Professional Boxers!
Don't worry about actually winning the fight, just appear to be the better man and the decision is yours. It's not important if you deserved to win, and it's not important if you agree with it or not as well!
Steward says he had Clottey winning the fight, but due to the courage Cotto showed he is not complaining that the loser got the decision.
How body-slamming, low-blowing, and rabbit-punching equate to being the better man will forever remain a mystery to me though.Comment

I had Clottey winning, and so did Steward. I trust his opinion much more than you, so tell it to someone who cares.
Stay on topic, Do you approve of Lampley's comments on why Cotto won or not?Comment

Not good enough. He should have hit a 50 punch combination, cured cancer, discovered the last remaining piece of the Atlantis puzzle, and beaten ten honor roll Asian kids at Algebra.Comment
