    I thought 6 was a toss up IMO, the only round Cotto definitively won was round 8

    I thought Cotto won like 4 watching it live,but I struggled to found a round he could have won besides 6-8, People are just not used to seeing Floyd bloody without that it was a dominate defensive performance against a relentless opponent

    Wow complete opposite for me. I thought he won 6 for sure. That was the round that Cotto bloodied his nose. Nice jabs by cotto during the round also.


    8 was kind of a tie to me

    Cotto lost the 7th for sure. I think we just find rounds to give poor cotto.

    It really was Cotto was game and Floyd wanted to brawl if people are true fans and have followed his career they've already seen him have fights like this people say that this is his toughest fight since Castillo. Ronnie Sheilds has the blueprint to beat Floyd if any one has ever had one because his fight with Chavez to me personally was his toughest fight even tougher than this one Chavez outworked Floyd that night he just took to much punishment

    h won round 8 for sure, after that 6 was very close. anyone giving him anything other than those two are blind. floyd outlanded cotto 2-1 in round five and round three.

    he won one round (8) maybe two if your generous.:bbb

    those ruds were definities!
    rounds, 2, 3, 5 were also very competitive- you cant possibly give all of them TO Mayweather- definitely ruond 5 is cottos

    How so? Floyd was hitting Cotto flush for most of the round on the ropes. The only time Cotto was really landing was in the last 30 seconds.
