    When fight or flight kicked in... Cotto flew!

    I'm a big Cotto fan! Puerto Rican, been to his Zab & Mosley fights. I was disappointed by his retreat in the last 8 rounds! I would rather have seen him get knocked out while going for a big bomb than to see him get beat up, shown up, then stopped like he did. It would've showed a true champions heart! I don't question his guts to step into the ring with anyone, but in the face of grim odds he's got the chemistry of a survivalist and not a warrior.

    By the way, I'll always be a Cotto fan but I'm also objective.

    Firing squad?

      mate... it's called boxing. cotto realised pacquiao was beating him in the exchanges and duly adjusted his gameplan.

        I didn't mean "in the last 8 rounds". I meant after round 8. My bad. My point is that rather than retreat & survive, some boxers will take the "all or nothing road". Not a knock. A fact.

        To AC111: isn't a fan, almost by definition... "armchair"?
