    Just watched this fight and scored it. I thought Clottey won but Cotto showed great heart and not a robbery very close fight. Who do you think won?
    Cotto-Clottey
    10-8
    9-10
    9-10
    10-9
    9-10
    10-9
    9-10
    9-10
    9-10
    9-10
    10-9
    10-9

    113-114 Clottey

    On a side note, what kind of an impact do you think the Grand-master can have in today's 154lb landscape?

    Clottey won, but Cotto(e) showed heart with his early cut.

    For your question about 154, no one beats Clottey, except for Floyd

    I think I had it for Clottey similar to your card but was not surprised when they gave it to Cotto, it was a close fight and they had the big money fight lined up with Pac. I think Cotto should have moved up after fighting against jennings

    Having a one point edge seems more like a draw.
    I had Marquez - Pacquiao I 113-112 Marquez. I have no problems it being a draw.

    114-113 Cotto. He pulled it out in the championship rounds. (with some help from his early knockdown)

    cotto won that fight because clottey did not do enough through out the whole fight. the more you throw the more he blocks, he loss the margo fight and the cotto fight.

    Clottey won but got robbed, but that was old Cotto, The Cotto from Foreman onwards is a much improved fighter, and is a huge challenge to anyone these days

    Cotto by a point. That was the worst Cotto I've ever seen though. Looked pretty damn bad early even, prior to the cut. Slow, less coordinated, bad technique, heavy on his feet, terrible stance, squared up, etc.

    Yeah, Cotto was at his lowest point in the clotey fight. It wasn't until training camp for Foreman thet he began to improve, now he is a different beast alltogether

    I had Clottey winning by a point but I won't argue with anyone if they scored it for Cotto.

    Cotto won on my card the three times Ive seen it, would have to rewatch it to give a round by round card though. It was a close fight and he scored a knockdown which sealed the deal. Cotto won.
