    Dan Rafael should be fired from ESPN for posting that scorecard. He has no credibility.

    So did a fair few people watching the fight. I'm suprised people are causing such a fuss over the 116-111 card. 114-113 Clottey was bad in my opinion.

    This was a close but clear win for Cotto. Clottey stopped punching and Cotto boxed well to nick a few here and there. He won the first few rounds clearly and scored a knockdown in the process. Yeah, the fight was close and a scrap which went this way and that, it may not be reflected that way on the cards but as long as the right man won, then so what??

    A clear win for Cotto on the cards is fine by me.

    Embarrassing.

    The only way you get that score, IMO, is:

    * 10-8 first round

    * Cotto wins rounds 1-6

    * Cotto wins rounds 11-12.

    That's horsesh*t, especially with Clottey landing 50 or whatever more punches.

    :deal

    He used to be so good when he was at USA Today, but he's a shadow of himself now. Sad.

    I can forgive a bad score; I'm sure I've scored some fights horribly in my time. However, when he combines these kinds of showings with his sanctimonious attitude it makes it enjoyable to read reactions like this.
