    Clottey has no one to blame but himself for a fight that he won by a score of 114-113?

    Nope. The leg was messing with Clottey the whole fight afterward. He lost some leverage on his punches after that, wasn't pushing forward as much, and kept slipping forward.

    Cotto couldnt even see the right hand for most of the fight. The cut was streaming blood, pouring, he pawed at it all fight. Clottey didnt move around much for 1 rd.

    No **** you ****ing idiot. He was given the wrong decision. Cotto lost.

    Clottey WON that fight. Period, point blank.

    The cut was definitely worse, but the leg clearly changed how Clottey was fighting. He always pushes forward behind his tight guard, but after the injury, was forced to box on the outside a lot more than usual because he couldn't push forward and get leverage like his style demands.

    I think its funny when morons post contrary outcomes just because they think they have a point. Most people with a brain scored it 114-113 cotto.

    Most people with a brain saw an entirely different fight, like myself.

    Clottey outlanded Cotto, and not by a little. He did come back from that 1st round KD to win the fight by one point, 114-113.

    Could it have gone 114-113 either way?... of course. Clottey really gave the fight away with the 11th and 12th.

    BTW... the judge that scored it 116-111 Cotto should have his license revoked before he was able to get in his car. Period.

    How exactly is my opinion of Cotto losing the fight "hating?"

    It's only a difference of opinion.

    I've said this before, the guy doesn't have have stamina and is a terrible finisher. He could have taken Cotto out in the 8th or 9th if he kept busy but he just can't do it.
