    Cotto's trainer/team should be put on an deserted island and left there. Why the hell did you let cotto stop using his jab and why didn't you stop fight after 9th rd. You protect your boxer no matter what he says. IDIOTS !!

    The trainer isn't outside the ring with a video game controller controlling what Cotto throws.

    Cotto stopped throwing jabs himself. His corner told him a couple times to work the jab. I agree Cotto does not have a good corner, but Cotto was the one who abandoned his jab, not his corner.

      cotto didn't stop using his jab.

      watch the 2nd round. he tried to keep using the jab. he got tore up.

      when pacquiao started timing that jab , they didn't have a backup plan. (not that the original plan was any good. beating pacquiao with a jab wasn't gonna work)

        "all he has is the left."

        santiago thinks pacquiao is a dumb fighter? he thinks all pacquiao has is the left?

        santiago didn't do his homework.

          you guys do realize that he was getting eaten up throwing that jab right?

          that jab worked for ONE round. the FEELOUT round.

          don't you guys think all the right hooks pacquiao was throwing over cotto's jab and the straight lefts cotto ate when he threw that jab might have a little something to do with him not throwing it as much?

                  Perhaps i said it wrong. Just felt like Cotto was there alone and pacquiao was there with a trainer. The only one i'd keep would be his cutman after the job he did in Clottey fight. Santiago goes or cotto will never be back on top.

                    Agree 100%. He can work his spanish in there and make cotto feel comfortable. Just feel cotto is hardheaded and will stick to santiago. Lesser fighters have made comebacks to win titles after beatdowns.
