    Cotto was on his bike fighting like he does when he's getting worked, and Clottey still outlanded and out through him in rounds 11 and 12. It was mostly Cotto fans that created the myth that Cotto won because he was running and Clottey wast active enough. Err same instance here.

    As for Dirrell he clearly outboxed Froch, landed the cleaner punches, more punches and had the better D.

    Move along now clown.

    If atleast 100 of those slaps landed on Hopkins face, you'd expect atleast a bruised cheek. Hopkins had no marks.

    Exactly. Dirrell did win, and because of the reasons listed. DA lost, because of the reasons listed you nutsucking homo. Man, I hope these dudes are at least giving you a reach around.

    Clottey out-landed Cotto in the fight but boxing fights are scored on a round by round basis and Clottey ain't do nada in the championship rounds and got knockdown by a jab which gave Cotto an extra point.

    Clottey landed 22 punches in round 11 and was the aggressor. What do you call that?

    Calzaghe kept touching Hopkins face with slaps. EVEN if Hopkins had the crisper punches, he was NOT stopping Calzaghe from slapping him.

    Exactly. So Dirrell, Hopkins and Clottey all won given your argument. I will gladly say Alexander lost if these L's could be taken off these fighters resume's.

    Far bigger fan of Dirrell then Alexander.

    Jesus himself couldnt stop calzaghe from slapping him. Zag is the slap master.

    I thought AK clearly beat Alexander. I thought Calzaghe vs Hopkins was close, with an edge going to Calzaghe. AK landed more punches, and landed the cleaner punches. He rocked Alexander's head and DA looked lost in there. Calzaghe out-hustled Hopkins, even if Hopkins landed more cleaner punchers he didn't do enough, although a case can be made. There's hardly any reasonable case that Alexander beat AK... at least I'll have to re-watch the fight. I don't score for punches missing and nipping gloves.

    No, Calzaghe won by both forms of reason, outowrked and outlanded.

    Still give Clottey-Cotto a draw.

    Your arguments make no sense. Only Froch-Dirrell applies to this but you are doing a complete 180 from that fight to this one.

    Yep. Check my post history. I had Kotelnik and Dirrell both winning their fights. Both fights were close and could have gone either way.

    I don't see why Calzaghe loses though. Calzaghe landed way more and threw way more than Hopkins.
