Myth: Clottey for whatever reason stepped off the the gas pedal and let Cotto win the fight.
Fact: It was a very close, competitive fight. Clottey didn't step off the gas pedal when things were going his way. Cotto made him hesitant during the later part of the fight. Near the end of the tenth round Cotto caught Clottey with some solid, strong left hooks in the middle of exchanges. This made Clottey come out hesitant and drop his workrate. Everytime he let his hands go after this Cotto would smack him with a solid left hook to the jaw. Which is why his punch output dramatically decreased during the 11th and 12th round. This is the same man who imitated a turtle when he fought pac.
