Comments Thread For: Roach Feels Robbed: I Thought We Outscored Canelo!

[Strive 4 Truth]

Cotto won the fight comfortable I hate when judges do that to a fighter who has worked his ass off for this fight

Come on man, You got to enjoy the Cotto run but now you have except when he loses. Its part of the sport and being a fan. He lost and lost clearly. Cotto had a great career.

This was a nice right hand.

Roach is a joke. Canelo won and made it look easy. This fight was not close. I gave cotto 3 rounds max. The punch stats all favored canelo. Cotto ran to avoid getting knocked out and still got out boxed and cut up. Then ran out the ring refusing to give interviews like a sore loser. Can't respect him for that.

I stopped watching after the end of the 12th round. Didnt stick around long enough to see that part. So Cotto ran out again? LOL. I dont get this dude. I like Cotto but he needs to stop acting like diva.

No need for a rematch. And I take it Roach didn't bet his houses.

I agree, the one judges card may have been a little wide but at least it pretty much eliminated a meaningless rematch.

It was a close fight. I had Cotto winning, but I don't have a problem with Canelo getting the nod. I do have a problem with the scorecards. It makes me think that no matter what, Canelo was getting the decision.

Helps to watch the fight again. Cotto had limited moments and tried stealing rds off of small spurts. Canelo took it rather easy. All Cotto had was a jab as the fight went on. Cotto was even hurt a few times. Good fight tho, both men came to fight and it was worth the pay this time.

Can see where Roach is coming from. Cotto was generally busier and looked to land more in many of the rounds. He just didn't have the pop to affect Canelo. And just as importantly he didn't have the MSG crowd behind him reacting to every landed shot.

I have the utmost respect for Freddie Roach. Big fan. Cotto was not robbed. He lost a competitive fight against a fighter who was bigger and hit harder because of his size. Cotto was so tough he landed combos after getting hurt, but could not lay the hurt on Canelo because he was fighting one division higher than he should have. Canelo is a Middleweight and should fight the Middleweight champ next at the a Middleweight weight. Period.

i genuinely thought miguel would have kod alvarez. although very tough and durable i thought cotto would have methodically broken him down and how wrong was that! it was a very good fight with much to and fro but, it was a lot closer than lederman was scoring having only given miguel three rounds!
thats a fackin joke. i had it with canelo only two points up. miguel took loads of avoidable shots...those uppercuts and over hand rights when his hands were down labouring around...i was pleasantly surprised with miguels punch resistance in this bout. miguel did all of the work with canelo both countering and fighting back with excellent effect. dont they say you gotta go take the belt from the champ?! i didnt see that, i saw cotto initiating all the action with canelo joining in as i said with very good results.
its what it is, shame for miguel cotto but he loses no steam in my view and alvarez wanting another crack at floyd mayweather would only end the same way.
a rematch would be good with cotto although i would like to see canelo face galovkin or lemineaux next....!?!?!
