    What's funnier is I badly tried to edit but sometimes my browser can't connect to ESB's IP and I get an "error", that rarely happens and decided to when I was trying to edit before anyone caught it.

    Of course Cotto and I still believe that If Cotto fought a better fight, he pushes Pacman very close. Not saying he wins, but he could have taken pacman the distance and possibly winning a decision or losing a close one. Just dont get why Cotto tried to brawl with Pacman and stay in his pocket. It didnt work for Hatton, that was a warning sign. His superior speed was always going to cause a lot of problems. His corner quite frankly were a joke and giving him the wrong advice.

    But I think Cotto has the ability to outbox pacman. I doubt it will happen but I would love to see a rematch. If he fights the way he did against Mosely keeping his distance and popping the jab I think he wins, and quite comfortably too!

    Real stupid poll (even tho i voted, so that makes me just as much as a plonker as the thread starter lol).

    ODLH landed like 6 decent punches the whole fight. Cotto was going toe-to-toe for the first 4 rounds. IMO 4 of the best rounds i've seen in a while.
