    I thought Cotto was firing back with his jab in the late rounds. I think he was hoping for one lucky shot or perhaps the early bodywork would eventually slow down pac. There is pride with a boxer. It feels better to have the ref stop the fight in RD12 than quiting on your stool after round 9.

    As i said before, Cotto needs to move up to 154 and he can beat spinks, foreman, or possibly martinez for a title. If Paul Williams wins against Martinez, that is too much for him.
