Mayweather vs. Cotto post fight Thread -DON'T make new threads about the fight

Cotto didnt do as bad as i thought rds 9-12

No he didn't... He just nearly got knocked to the canvas in round 12 :S arguably floyd's most dominant round, this comment alone is outrageous and I'm not even going to comment on the part where you said a draw would have been fair that even more outrageous!

[Easy-E]

Even if Cotto was just hitting shoulders and elbows all the work effort constitutes a winning round over someone who isn't doing anything at all. And even when May did choose to mix it up from what I remember Cotto got the better of him, and hell he even outboxed him in some rounds. It was when May started landing them uppercuts that he really took control of the fight...

Cotto showed that May is not invincible, just accept that.

this just shows how little you know about boxing. thowing punches and not landing, hitting shoulders and elbows do not count as scoring blows. In fact, based in true scoring methods, Floyd is earning points there for Defense. Throwing and not landing is not effective aggression, is not clean punching, is not defense, is not ring generalship.

Dude mayweather dominated those rounds....2 and 3?

LOL... Round two 2 was close, could have gone either way. A few more rounds were close.

Round 3 was definitely Cotto's. So do rounds 6 and 8.

The only round that floyd clearly was dominant was round 12.

Overall, floyd won the fight.

You cannot win a round by just blocking punches...

I gave Cotto 4 rounds last Saturday night. After I rewatched it tonight and I only gave him 3.

You being a Puerto Rican has everything to do with it.

I had it reversed bro. When I firs watched it I gave Cotto 3 rounds but upon a second viewing I gave him 4. At the very worst it was ten round to two for Mayweather and at the very best it was 8 rounds to 4 for Mayweather. 9 rounds to 3 sounds fair.

BTW seeing Cotto in his dressing room with his son while tears came out his eyes was kind of sad to see. He's truly a good man.

Floyd dominated Cotto, it ain't even close.

YOU as a fan may want to reward Effort and Wild Flurries but a lot of judges are not going to do that, especially with the opponent is answering your flurries with accurate counter punches

Cotto had that 1 Round in which he clearly dominated Mayweather, no doubt about that, if he had more rounds like that then yes...HE WOULD HAVE WON, but Mayweather came back stronger after that round and once again starting landing ACCURATE SHOTS

I am kinda wasting my time going back and forth over this topic because it is really no controversy, other then a few fans on the internet, nobody is arguing that "COTTO WAS ROBBED" other then Cotto Fans, Pacquiao Fans and People who just desperately want to see Mayweather lose
