      I think the reason this fight was close was Cotto's strength. Everytime Floyd tied him up, he would walk Floyd to the ropes. I think if Cotto was not so strong, Floyd would not have got taken to the ropes so much and it would have been a more dominant performance.
      All in all, I thought the rounds were close, I didn't score it at the time but I would say Cotto won 3 rounds clear, Mayweather won 6 rounds clear and the others were up for grabs.
      Mayweather does not have the accuracy he once had, I noticed this in the Ortiz fight (which I was ringside).
      He is not as calm when he is in the action anymore and this is causing him to close his eyes a bit when getting hit and this is why his counters are missing more.
      Mayweather is way past prime but Cotto looked really strong and fast so it was a great win at 35 as thats the best I've seen Cotto in a long time.

          i heard that one, too ha ha ha. but based on that ans. he still wants the bigger purse, he just don't want the fans to hear it directly so he eluded it and instead said "if you're the best, take the test" LOL

            Cotto vs Alvarez is the next logical fight imo.
            I don't know about that Martinez looked like **** in his last fight, it took him a while to get into the fight you can't do that with cotto.

                  Rounds 2-3 were close and round 5-6-8 were Cotto rounds unlless u are a blind mother****er. The scorecards were bs this was a 116-112 fight at worse. 118-110 scorecards are for beatdowns and Cotto was very much in the fight.
