    I am sick and TIRED of people saying that Clottey gave away the fight against Cotto by going in to a shell.... In which he didnt he was walkin him down and Cotto was RUNNING.... And you cant name me 6 rounds Cotto won... Point blank... But people give the Trinidad vs De La Hoya fight to trinidad because Oscar was going backwards well so was Cotto...

    Get into a boxing gym and learn boxing. If walking forward ineffectively is boxing then Urango is the greatest fighter of all time.

    Terrible analysis. Oscar vs. Trinidad has nothing to do with the scoring of Cotto vs. Clottey. You can't just lump them together as if what happens in one justifies what happens in another, etc.. Clottey most certainly did give the fight away by not throwing punches. In no way did Clottey put a stamp on the fight.
