We all know cotto fades later on in a fight, yuri could certainly defeat cotto if they fought again, he had a poor game plan, needs to be very busy in throwing his punches
    That's why it's a shame that injury happened, I've been anticipating what Steward has done for Cotto and his erratic late fight fades.

      It was pretty clear where the fight was heading, especially with yuri's nose bleeding and losing stamina.

      The knee injury just brought the inevitable that much closer.
      I never saw Yuri losing stamina before the injury. Was actually thinking he would with Cotto.

        Yuri wasn't losing before the injury IMO at least. His movement was his BnB and Cotto's just at par with it.

        You giving him one round? OK that's your call...

Cotto looked a bit lost chasing him around the ring and trying to corner him, and I've never seen him miss so much. Had Yuri stepped up his offense in the second half of the fight, he certainly could've pulled it off.

        Ding ding ding!!!!

          Yuri is known to have excellent stamina and conditioning,
          and he never had any problem in that department.
          Yuri is also known for not getting hit very much.

          He got hit more in that fight than any other in his career.

          Cotto's jab was destroying Foreman.

          Foreman was getting straight up out classed, go watch the fight again. The man was slowing.

            I can't remember exactly but I think two judges had it 96-93 for Cotto and I forgot if it was Julie Lederman who had Cotto by a larger margin. I wouldn't be surprised though, she had DLH beating Mayweather.

                    I doesnt matter who is a stan or not. If you think Foreman won more than 1 round you dont know how to score fights, simple as that!!

                      Ive seen the fight.
                      The first 2 rounds Cottos jab was nice and efficient, thats true.
                      but it was partly due to Foreman's nervousness.

                      but the slowing down thing is more wishful thinking than reality
