    Hopkins himself said that he could of got A 10-8 IN THE FIRST tAYLOR FIGHT. He's been boxing and probably living longer than you have to know the criteria of scoring.

    Marquez/pac 2 fight was closer than Clottey/Cotto.

    People say Floyd lost to Castillo, and that was close fight. Pac's fans say either man could've won between Pac-Marquez. Two close fights, yet Pac won and floyd lost lol. It just goes to show you pick the winner according to which fighter you like...period!

    He did win. And majority of the ringside thought he did. The scorecards wasn't as wide and you can make a good case for that but it definetly was a little wider than Marquez/pac 2.

    Cotto and Clottey are both promoted by Bob Arum, so don't go say it was set up, because that's all speculation and assumption. If Clottey wanted to win the fight all he had to do was win 2 out of the last 3 rounds and he would of won. He's lucky Cotto suffered that cut cause he would of loss even more lopsided.

    The underlined, you lost me. Look, I understand you like Cotto and all, but nobody thought he won by 3 and 5 points.

    Everyone at ringside that I read had Clottey winning. I had Clottey winning by a round, and if Cotto won, he won by a round. Clottey giving it away in the last two rounds is how the majority saw the fight...except Cotto's fans.

    Show me some proof that everybody at ringside thought Clottey won. Cause I watched friday nite fights and won of the commentators that was with brian kenny thought cotto won.

    And i'm not no huge Cotto fan, but I don't think Clottey beat him. Infact, I've even did polls and asked tons of people and only 1 person I know said Clottey won. Only thing contreversail was the scorecard, that's it.

    Proof of what...other people's opinions? Look, Cotto won. I don't think he won, but he won. Clottey gave it away a bit more than Cotto won it if anything. Cotto gets credit and a "red badge of courage" for never quitting in my book.
