    Floyd actually won the 8th round if you pay attention to punches landed, especially power punches, and he worked the body well which is why Cotto tired. Also no, he did not purposely take punishment.

      Life and death and all you get is a blood nose LOL , sometimes I really wonder what some of you think you are seeing , lots on this board have no idea what they are looking at , the guy that said Cotto beat him up in round 8 is dreaming and the guy yesty that said Marquez was being schooled by his sparing partner need to watch way more boxing .

        I'm sure he would've been trying to make Cotto throw more punches, but getting hit by them obviously wouldn't be part of the plan.

          Floyd did not win round 8. I just can't see that.

            No. Cotto just has a really good jab and it gave Floyd problems.

            Until Floyd started throwing the hook at Cotto's lead hand; repeatedly. Screwed up Cotto's rhythm, game plan, everything. Once his jab was taken away Floyd began the dismantling.

            Floyd didn't take damage on purpose. Only Margarito and Rocky Balboa purposefully take damage.
