I agree. Thanks for giving Canelo, Mosley and Corley the praise they deserve.Great night of boxing! The sports premier fighter Floyd Mayweather had to bring his best to outscore the always game and skilled Miguel Cotto in an entertaining and highly skilful match up
Carlos Quintana got a good win (im a fan) in a more than decent affair
Saul Alvarez kept his "0", looked fast and powerful, patient and strong on route to UD'ing 40 year old Shane Mosley who himself turned in a dogged and determined performance attempting to pressure and outhustle the younger bigger man making for a good fight where Legend Mosley wasn't beaten badly and humiliated as many had feared
Ola Afolabi and Marco Huck went to war and put on a Great fight with an all time classic type of final round!
Paul McCloskey was exposed in a far better than expected fight with Chop Chop Corley
Missed most of Prize Fighter but the opening bout was a real tear up straight out of a Western bar brawl.....
Great stuff - Boxing wins!

Well said! Everything here is true. A fantastic night for the sport of boxing, and the best PPV event I have seen in a while. What a crowd and environment! And the hype was all there leading up to the event! Cotto deserves a standing ovation for his effort. This is the best thread post-fight, about the fight so far. Forget all the bickering and insulting of fighters, let's take a moment to appreciate what is good for the sport of boxing, the reason we are all here discussing this in the first place.A mega fight delivered in both action and competitiveness.
It showed the best fighter in the world have to dig a little deep and he passed with flying colors.
It showed another important cog in the sport make a great account of himself and give it everything he had.
And most importantly it delivered action and excitement. Props to both fighters man. I'm a big fan of both guys and while I thought Floyd looked great and clearly won I'm also ecstatic that Cotto was as competitive as he was.
Anyone who spent the $70 on the fight was NOT disappointed and it's nice to be able to say that for once.
Green K for you.Comment
