    Would that have been a bigger robbery than Bradley winning the split vs. Pacquiao?

    Cotto was in mayweather's grill all night, would have been debatable but still a robbery.

    Yes - Mayweather worked just as hard as Cotto throughout the fight and had 7 clear rounds, Cotto had 2 clear rounds, there were three to split.

    115-113 is the best result for Cotto in that fight while looking at the insights coming out from how people judged the Pacquaio fight - you could feasibly give Tim 6 rounds (1, 2, 9, 10, 11, 12) based on common consensus.

    Both would have been robberies. I think Cotto made it look closer then Bradly did tho.

    It would have been a robbbery. Making it a bigger one by default. The difrance is that other than the 9th round Mayweather domanated Cotto. Sure Cotto had his molments in the middle rounds. The rest of the time, in those rounds and the early and late rounds Mayweather domanated Cotto.
    Pacquiao was just good enough to win rounds. There was no rounf]d that he was dommnat against Bradley in. The most dommant round of the fight was the first 2:45 of the first round by Bradley.

    Floyd grasped the fact that rounds are 3 minutes, and that there are 12 of them. He also took his job seriously enough to, you know, prepare for the fight instead of watching basketball to see if his bet on the Celtics was going to come through.
