Not Impressed by Cotto

Agree! Cotto won! But it was far from being IMPRESSIVE!!!!!!

 

Yup bad fight for Cotto. Clottey has incredible defense.

 

Yea clottey was stupid for not throwing enough punches in the last round. If he would have tried to win that round he probably would have won. Let's give clottey credit cuz he fought a good fight just came up short.

 

He always been a bit of a flat track bully. As soon as the other guy doesn't fold he goes on the retreat.

 

What is so hard to understand? Cotto had 1 eye for the majority of the fight. No wonder he wasn't at his peak. atsch

 

He was drawn into a fight but he did well in my opinion.

 

same old problems for cotto.

good for 6 rds.

2nd half of the fight wasn't good.

on that form margo will be licking his lips i'd think. :yep

 

Maybe because he had 1 eye.

 

Yeah I was saying the same thing in the round by round thread....

After Round 6, he just didn't show any aggression and it's like when he doesn't steamroll his opponent, he just retreats and becomes this counterpuncher...

If that's what he's becoming then we'll just have to adjust I guess..

 

Cotto was the same Cotto he's always been, flaws and all. Offensively, he's fantastic and he's a powerful puncher, but his defense has a lot of holes.

 

i thought he shot his load in the 6th rd i think it was.

when he hurt clottey with the left hook and threw about 600 punches with clottey against the ropes. :bbb :yep

 

Everybody is ignoring the fact that the blood was clearly getting into Cotto's eye, impairing his vision, and ultimately his performance. For god's sake, the guy did bloody well beating a guy of Clottey's calibre despite the cut.

Show some respect ESB.

 

I can't see Cotto being a top dog in the division. I can't see him beating Mosley, Williams, or Floyd. The only fight Cotto should shoot for is Berto.

 

The stock of both guys drops a little bit I think. Cotto isn't as good as I thought he was, and Clottey again fails to show the heart and desire to win a big fight.
