    Just like in Pac/Marquez 2.

    Pacquiao knocked him down and won via SD.

    Clottey could've finished Cotto up before the 12 but got careless.

    If the ref had removed a point from Cotto after Bodyslamming Clottey he would've never won the fight, :yep.

    Only if the guy who had it 115-112 had Clottey winning the 1st round up to the point of the KD. Then the KD changed it from a draw to a SD for Cotto.

    The bodyslam is due to Cotto got tired of noticing Clottey trying to connect using the elbow.

    A draw would of been hillarious, Clottey would of lost his belt without getting the lose.

    I would've removed a point after Cotto rabbit-punched + low blowed Clottey :verysad.

    Shame on Cotto.

    The same thoughts were running through my mind as the fight was ending.

    The knockdown and Cotto winning the 12th made the difference. 116-112 was a horrible card but I believe Cotto won in a very close fight.

    I think Clottey would have won the fight as well if it wasn't for the knockdown. Cotto's shots were mostly blocked and Clottey had control of most of the fight.

    I am still trying to figure out how that judge got that score.

    Should never judge another fight again.

    yea i was thinking the same thing but the ref is too generous In a way it was good that he didn't take a point cuz a draw would have suck.

    My favorite part was when Clottey blocked most of the combinations thrown by cotto, and then shaking his head :lol:.

    Agreed.

    i would've scored it 115-116.

    Cotto wasn't doing enough in the 11th round.
