Undefeated WBO super bantamweight champion Juan Manuel Lopez felt the bout between his countryman Miguel Cotto and pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao should have been stopped in the seventh or eight round. Lopez was ringside at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas and watched Cotto get busted up for nearly twelve rounds. [details]

It was around round 6 or 7 for me that I thought the fight was over and Cotto didnt have much of a chance. Up till the 5 it was a good fight. Then it was a mismatch -
Maybe but I don't think he should have got stopped in the 12thComment

cotto have a puncher chance so i dont agree with lopezComment

I blame Cotto's corner and most of all I blame the keybord warriors on this forum. Those who call him a quiter after the Margarito fight those who **** on the guy for trying to save his career. He saw how those people look at him after that and did not want to quit again.Comment

Yep it should have been then we might have been spared seeing Cotto run from a former FWComment

I am puerto rican, I know Juanma isn't talking ****?!?!?!? Stopping the fight in the 7th or 8th. If we went by that logic they should have stopped his last fight when he was almost KTFO and ran the last 3rds as well.Comment

it should have been stopped, actually very similiar to the marg fight in terms of the beating really starting to pick up in the second half of the fight. but if cotto would have stood in there more like he did in the marg fight , he would have got knocked out like hatton and diaz. he definately back pedaled alot in the marg fight but margs really needed the KO cuz it wasnt a clear W on the cards for him. i give all the respect in the world for cotto doing his best to finish.Comment

yeah and they should have stopped your fight with mtagwa as well?Comment

Agreed. Cotto fought like a scared ***** from round 5 on.
The fight was over by the 6th. All they did was waste everyones time for another 6 useless rounds.
I hope Cotto's proud of himself.
