Have boxing fans become wimps?

You speak the truth brother :good

Cotto battled through a cut, and a couple of really rough spells in the middle rounds to outbox Clottey down the stretch for IMO a close but convincing decision (helped out by a 10 - 8 first round); its definitely a result and a performance that increases Cotto's standing in the boxing world.

I don't see what all the fuss is about regarding low blows etc. This is boxing for ****s sake, two guys throwing punches at each other for 12 rounds; **** like this happens all the time; its part of the game. And the hit on the back of the head could be seen as Clottey's fault as much as Cotto's.

 

I think a lot of people now are fans of particular fighters rather than of boxing the sport. I haven't really been reading the threads about Cotto being a **** today but I bet most of the people whinging about him are the same ones that said he would lose before the fight and are just making excuses now.

I totally agree that a lot of fans now are wimps and also drama queens. The whole 'Haye conspiracy' bull**** is pathetic as is people critisizing Wlad for fighting Chagaev after Haye pulled out.

Whinging about decisions is another thing that seems to happen far more now than before. At one time outrageous decisions like Lewis-Holyfield got critiscized, now people ***** for months about things like Hopkins-Calzaghe and when you ask them their scores most of the people whining only scored it to Hopkins by one point or so.

 

Very well said sir.

 

i agree boxing fans are wimps

 

your spot on gaz.some of the anti cotto threads are a disgrace.if these people cant applaud cotto for that win they shouldnt be watching boxing

 

dead on, gazoc!

these cotto fans crying their skulls out and calling Clottey all kinds of demeaning names is really embarrassing

 

your kidding

 

atsch

 

***s, really.

 

:nono

 

i dunno why everybodys suprised ..people have been crying about cotto since his pro debute .. they don't like him .. they can't stand him ..every fight for him is a gift .. every time he's knocked someone out i've heard the following day " well if cotto hadn't knocked him out he woulda got knocked out" ...

coto has and never will get the respect he truely deserves ... for why? i have no idea

 

What as been going on? I can't be arsed go through all the threads.

Has Cotto being getting ****? It was a great fight first off which I thought Cotto won, dunno what the **** Clottey was doing though towards the end, grabbing the back of his head like it was Lucy Pinders tits when he was hardly grazed. Still a fantastic fight though.
