Honestly, why was Cotto running without trying to fight let alone win?

[street bully]

I just think he should have went out on his shield. At the end of the day it would have been a KO loss, but they are KO losses that can be looked at as a badge of honor (Hearns vs Hagler) and there are those looked down upon (Tyson vs Seldon).

He was just trying to make it to the 12th without being knocked out and looking silly.

Imo that was pretty much a cowardly move even though he ended up taking more punishment.

your sig is sick..........thats when i think Cotto decided to change strategy

It certainly beats having a real-life mass murderer as an avvie. Instead, he's got a sanctioned one. :box1:

When Cotto starts moving backwards things are always going downhill for him. He has some boxing skill but he is just not the type of fighter who can move away and win atleast if his foe does not let him off the hook like Clottey and even Mosley to a certain extent.

When watching Cotto train you could tell there was a steady rythm to it but he was training to go at his own pace. There is some merit to training at your own pace if a fighters style is based on controling pace but in both of his loses Cotto got brought into the other guys pace and that was not what he was trained for.

Manny trained to go 12 hard rounds all out, Cotto trained to go 12 rounds at his own pace you saw the results.

Idi wasn't perfect, but he was a great African populist leader.
