    Yeah, I would have called that a robbery. And I think that fight was closer than Pac Bradley

    The fight with DLH was very close and compteitive with Floyd. Floyd clearly won....just like Floyd clearly won against Cotto.

    Those who gave the fight to DLH for being the aggressor against Floyd had more of a foundation than those giving the fight to Tim on aggression.....as Tim and PAC's out put were fairly the same....Tim threw A LOT of jabs and that produced the majority of his offense.

    Clearly, you are huggin balls. Cotto did not lose clearly, it was a very close fight with Mayweather landing 20-25% of his punches.


    Get off the forum-bandwagon and think.

    The only balls I'd hug are located just north of my own taint pal.:lol: Cotto did lose clearly...he was competitive through out but Floyd did just enough to win the majority of the rounds. A lot of the rounds were very close but Floyd was able to give better than he got in most cases.

    Cotto did an amazing job defensively as well...taking about the accuracy that Floyd is known for....But do say Floyd wasn't the clear winner I think it is more revealing of whos' balls you are huggin' on.:smoke Critical thinking doesn't seem to be an area you thrive in.

    Look.

    Think.

    Speak.

    In that order. Cotto lost clearly to anyone who was watching. Nothing close about that fight.

    Most def. Probably wouldn't be as bad as Bradley, but there's no way you could have given Cotto more rounds than Mayweather.

    Well.... I wouldn't say "NOTHING" was close in that fight. Cotto gave a GREAT account of himself. He fought the fight he wanted to fight....He made Floyd adapt and adjust A LOT more than he typically does and ALL the rounds were fairly close with Floyd doing just enough to take them.

    On PAPER the fight wasn't close but anyone watching the fight was witness to a competitive scrap at a very high level.

    I would not be upset if Cotto had been given the decision.

    Yes, because Floyd CLEARLY won more rounds than Cotto.

    Manny has no one to blame but himself for this loss. He had Bradley hurt at least 4 times and couldn't put him away. Bradley bit down and kept coming. Pacquiao also lost rounds 9-12.

    Is this the twilight zone? What fight were people watching?

    :lol: I know PAC bit his tongue in the fight but Bradley didn't bit down on ****. Tim was getting the business and he fought a safety first kind of fight. The only time he fought back was when he had to when he found himself cornered and on the ropes where he'd awkwardly throw some haymakers and dip out....and went back to the jab....keeping distance and looking to score points with his jab.

    Based on how you saw the fight I'd say you are in the twilight zone.....let us know when you find your way out.

    That line is....I don't know what to say. Bradley slugged with Pacquiao on many occasions in during the fight. That's how he got himself in trouble in those middle rounds.

    People truly see and hear what they want. It's amazing.

    Bradley slugged it out with PAC on 4 occasions! And that was when PAC had Tim cornered and Tim HAD to fight back.. If Tim could have.....he would have been happy keeping the fight far enough away to where he could out work PAC with his Jab...even if he wasn't landing anything....Take away PAC's offense by not giving him a chance to fight is one way to win.

    We do agree on whats in bold...I'm just glad the vast majority are living in reality and not in la la land.
