    stop complaining everyone gets a close decision so called gift

    I recently read an article stating that cotto has received many gift decisions. the only two close fights were mosley and clottey.the shane fight was hard earned. i can understand the clottey fight but clottey didnt do enough and got inactive. so stop bitching. everyone gets close nods look at mayweather castillo1.

    Could a really close fight be considered a robbery, if say, one of the judge's scorecard was way off?

        Cotto beat Mosley, he out-jabbed mosley and made Mosley look bad a good part of the fight. When I say bad, I don't mean Cotto destroyed him. I mean the fight looked to be favoring Cotto.

          No i wouldn't say that, to get robbed you got to get robbed of something (the win). If one scorecard is way of but the result of the fight dosen't get affected it can't be called a robbery IMO.

              winning close fights isnt a gift cause it could go either way. gifts are holyfield-valuev type of fights, basically robbery fights imo

                Close decisions ain't robberies. It's only a gift if it's clearly undeserved.

                    i find this whole gift decision thing with Cotto and Mosley funny. It was a clear victory for Cotto. The weird thing about that is after the fight you didnt even hear anyone say anything about a robbery..wasnt till after the Margarito fight it became a popular thing to say Cotto should of lost to Shane.
