These Compubox stats pretty much prove my point the fight was close til the injury

    Foreman didnt just lat down, but it was obvious one fighter was in another league than the other.

      lol, why watch fights with this logic, lets just count compubox numbers and whoever "lands" more wins. gtfo out, cotto was dominating and lost maybe one ****ing round

        The only round Yuri won was round 4 and at the end of round 3 he landed some good shots. That's it, the rounds were not very close. It wasn't a complete beatdown but cotto clearly won every round but 1 or 2.

        Also, compubox doesn't prove anythign. Like one of the announcers said, when Yuri got hit he got hurt and moved out of the way, when cotto got hit it didn't phase him and he kept comin.

        That's the difference. Clean & EFFECTIVE punches. Forget the stats. Cotto was hurting Yuri and Yuri was not doing anything to stop cotto.
        i didn't really see Yuri hurt at all til he was injured. maybe i missed it.

          He was wobbled and rocked numerous times and his legs buckled a couple times prior to the injury. Roy made a good point that he was forced to fight because he was desperate (meaning he was getting hurt in there and he new his only chance was to trade shots with cotto, since he was getting out-boxed by cotto).

            Yuri was getting outboxed and only won the forth round. The fight wasn't close, brother.

              lol, why even listen to my argument when u can just spazz out and twist my words. I never said Yuri won, but I did say Cotto didn't dominate.

              No ones sayin u need Compubox to judge a fight. I just said the numbers show that Yuri was right there with miguel when it came to landing and throwing punches. That usually is the definition of competitive. I'm not sure how u call only landing an average of 2-3 more punches a round total domination.

                ****** thread.

                Not everything is about stats.

                Yuri got his ass beat way before he got injured. He pretty much lost every round except for one round when Cotto stopped throwing the jab. Yuri was out-boxed by Cotto the whole fight. The fight wasn't even close to deserve a rematch. **** was one sided like the Mayweather vs. Mosley fight.

                  I will say that it is possible I didn't see that. I was at the fight so I was watching without commentators or sound. I did see the big screen though so i had a good view of what was happening, and saw what everyone else did.

                  If you watch the fight without commentators or sound, you wouldn't have been convinced he was hurt either.

                  I'm gonna try to catch the broadcast when I can

                  But watchin the fight as I did, it didn't look anything like a blowout. Most of the PR fans I was sitting with didnt seem convinced Cotto was dominating either.

                    I didn't see him hurt . Maybe u guys are just seeing what the commentators tell u to see. The fight was competitive till the injury I was expecting Foreman to turn it around.
