    were you sniffing paint while you were watching the fight. you could argue that it was a draw or a close dec but 9-3 you watched the fight with your hater glasses on i had 114-113 for cotto but would understand someone thinking it was a draw due to the fact that clottey was the aggressor

      I think I had Clottey winning by 2 points (my opinion). I just thought that after the 1st half of the fight Clottey was more effective. Cotto threw more but Clottey was more precise down the stretch of that fight.

        I'm one of these people that think this fight was a robbery, not because the victory went to Cotto. But because of the way that the judges had the scorecards in favor of Cotto regardless of who would pull the championship rounds out. And Teddy Atlas made a good point of how Clottey isn't this beast that people make him out to be. He really did himself a disservice in round six and just let Cotto tee off on him. Elite fighters don't go that long without launching some kind of attack. If you want my honest opinion, I don't even think Clottey could beat Pacquiao or Marquez. It might sound crazy to some people, but it really is the truth. If you don't have one punch knockout power, you need to make up for it with volume. And Clottey doesn't do that. And the fact that Cotto went life and death with him, tells me that Cotto's time at the top is coming to a close.

          When you have a handicapped man infront of you, and you can't finish the fight, then you should only blame yourself.

              Cotto was hit while he was trying to slip. It was a very solid punch, but he went back on the offensive. Clottey on the other hand took a clean left hook early in the 6th round that sent him back to the ropes. It obviously hurt him because he immediately went on the defensive and eventually backed himself into the corner.

                By the way the 4th was close but clear win for Cotto. He just outworked Clottey.
