    First round: 10 - 8 Cotto, Knockdown final seconds.
    Second Round: 10 - 9 Clottey, Landed precise punches.
    Third Round: 10 - 9 Cotto
    Fourth Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, best round, constant left hooks and uppercuts
    Fifth Round: 10 - 9 Clottey, Big Right hands, obviously due to lack of vision
    Sixth Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, Clearly dominated that round.
    Seventh Round: 10 - 9 Clottey, Accurate punches and some right hands.
    Eighth Round: didnt have full round, Even/little towards Clottey up till last min
    Ninth Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, Out Boxed Clottey.
    Tenth Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, Cotto outboxing clottey off the ropes, Clottey lands some combinations, but Cotto retaliates and lands big left hook to end the round.

    Championship Rounds:
    Eleventh Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, Out boxing Clottey once again, Clottey being less active.
    Twelfth Round: 10 - 9 Cotto, same as above.

    8 rounds to 4 plus the knockdown, 116 - 111 Cotto.

    I bet the judge that scored the fight 116-111 has an ESB account since June 2008.

    I can't explain it otherwise. :blood

    Some Close Rounds were:
    Round 10 & Round 12; So if you gave those to Clottey it would be 6 rounds to 6 rounds plus knock down for Cotto, 114 - 113 Cotto.

    Lol what dont you agree with? tell me which rounds?
    I've already addressed that round 10 and 12 couldve possibly gone to Clottey being close rounds. . but Cotto still would've gotten 114 - 113.

    114-113 and 116-111 are worlds apart.

    And peoples perspectives are worlds apart, I saw those rounds for Cotto earning him a 116 - 111. . BUT if someone was to see it go the opposite way 114 - 113 Cotto.

    No arguments on those scores, But Clottey being up on a scorecard. . I dont see it. :think

    Maybe there was another close round I missed? Otherwise only two possible scores I see.

    I had it 114-113 for Cotto, but I had doubts for one round, where Clottey landed 16 punches to Cotto's 7 or 8 if I remember correctly (I think it was the 9th), but I still gave it to Cotto cause he finished in style with too hard left hooks to the head. So I wouldn't ***** about a possible 114-113 score for Clottey, it was a close fight.

    PS: You're sure you're not Don Trella? :blood

    Hmmm, I'll watch round 9 again in a few. . If it is as you say then maybe a 114 - 113 Clottey would be reasonable. . That being said it all comes down to a person perspective, It was indeed a good fight and let me take this chance to say that if Cotto's eye was functional it wouldve been a clear fight for Cotto.

    I basically had it the same as lederman 114-113 Cotto with a few rounds switched around. Very close fight.

    You had the same scorecard as me, so this means you can judge fights pretty well. :yep

    A great mentality booster for Cotto it was.
