I'm wondering cause I know people say they both got robbed. I had Clottey losing by 2-3 points and I had Cotto beating Mosley by 1 point. what does the majority of NSB believe?
Who came closer to beating Cotto; Mosley or Clottey?

To me theres no doubt Clottey came closer , WAYY CLOSER , Mosley never had control of that fight and you can argue Cotto outboxed a boxer in Mosley. Clottey had that fight to take and he just slacked , he could have had a stoppage win in Cotto , a very impresive one , but his workrate lacks a spark. He let Cotto win championship rounds , he got kd in the first which gave Cotto a 2 point lead , and he just let Cotto steal enough rounds to earn a descicion , which was impressive for Cotto cuz Clottey is not an easy opponent at all , he is ****ing huge , strong and very powerful , and that defense is hard to break , Cotto didnt have the speed to break it , his timing played a big role in that fight.Comment

I just don't think Clottey fought enough of every round, not only the championship rounds. He made himself look bad by just leaning on the ropes and letting Cotto pound him, he would block most but Cotto would land enough to win the round, especially if Clottey took most or all of that round off.
Mosley fought a good fight and it was back and forth but i had him winning more rounds then Clottey, like i said I had Mosley losing by only 1 point so i can see the argument.Last edited by AllEyesOpen; 01-15-2010, 10:27 PM.Comment
