    Cotto had his moments when he had Clottey against the ropes but even then most of those shots were blocked. I can't really remember Cotto landing any significant shots other than a right hand in the middle rounds.

    Clotteyon the other hand was landing big in the 5th round before he was thrown on the floor.

    Close fight but an honest decision would have been a draw, no way Cotto did enough to out point Clottey even with the flash knockdown in the 1st.
    114-113 for Clottey? I'm ok with that, just cannot stand people that say cotto beat clottey easily or clottey beat cotto easily.114-113 for either or draw.

      Cotto landed at least 10 clean left hooks that snapped Clottey's head back. And a lot of those punches did get through the guard when Clottey was in the corner. I think part of the problem is a lot of people count partially blocked as fully blocked. If it deflects off the gloves and still lands on the head, it should be counted. For example that gif in some people's sig of Clottey taking those punches and shaking his head. Those all got through and landed. I bet compubox counted half though.

          I never saw both of JMM v. Pacman. Is it true that Pacman REALLY lost the 2nd fight or could've been judged like Cotto v Clottey?

            Yes but they weren't significant punches that changed the round or fight for that matter. I don't know if you box or boxed or even spar but a partially defelcted shot loses almost all it's power, believe me.

            I thought clottey did a very good job of defending Cotto's shots, especially to the body.

              I agree with Jack Donovan. Rounds 3 and 10 were the swing rounds, the rounds that could have gone either way. I gave round 3 to Cotto and Round 10 to Clottey.

              Cotto: 1,3,4,6,11,12
              Clottey: 2,5,7,8,9,10

              Cotto- 114-113. Definitely think Cotto won.

              And I agree with Antonio. Those compubox numbers are ****ing bull****. Cotto landed wayy more punches than that.
