    Did Anyone See Cotto Hit The Ali Shuffle?

    OMG, that was the saddest thing ever. I forgot which round it was but it was late. It was like the 10th round when the big strong Cotto was in pure bike mode and Pac was basically telling him to stop running and fight. Then right before the bell to end the round, Pac rushed him and threw a couple of hard shots. Cotto like dipped and ran for his life right before the bell sounded and the ref was running in at the bell. Then you see Cotto still in pure escape mode start to back to the ropes and shuffle his legs like Ali. It was sad because it looked like Cotto really thought he was doing something but he really just looked like a clown and the crowd booed the whole time he was on the stool at the end of that round. That was the saddest thing ever to see Cotto result to that against Pac and then actually have a look on his face like he thought he did something right there. Honestly, that made him look like a clown.

    he did the exact same thing in the margarito fight. That's Cotto's way of trying to "play off" being hurt and embarrassed. He was trying to "act cool" but in reality he was dying slowly on the inside and was being brutalized, embarrassed, and had all hope beat out of him.

      I don't believe anything made him look like a clown. And anyone booing should be ashamed.

        Yeah, I remember him doing that in that fight also but atleast it was against a supposed big monster. This was supposed to be against an inferior guy physicaly so it looked really bad

          Same here.

          If anything Pac should have been able to cut him off earlier...

          But was a good fight regardless..worth every penny.

            That was a hell of a fight, and you have to give credit to Cotto, they both put on a great performance.
