    Clottey always cuts his rivals baldomir, juda ,cotto is his game plan to cut the more dangerous fighters. Yes Cotto won.

    Can't blame Clottey for thinking about quitting the sport. He just lost to a one eyed fighter:yep

    it was not a robbery by any stretch of imagination!

    Close fight that the judges felt Cotto won due to the KD and the last 2 rounds!

    How can one score a fight so close like 114-113 and claim it was a robbery if the other fighter won? It was a damn close fight and one round on a scorecard might have made all the difference. I don't have a problem with either fighter winning.

    Now the guy who scored it 116-111... well then we might have something to talk about.

    I'd like the rematch to happpen as well. As for Pac-Cotto, it's a good fight but not the best out there for both guys.

    What is with this myth that Clottey didn't do enough the last round when even HBO Cotto fanboy Lederman scored the 11th for Clottey. You could say he took off the 12th round, but that is all, he won the 11th.

    i dont know how you really do that when the other guy IS IN COMPLETE SURVIVAL MODE NOT TRYING IN THE SLIGHTEST TO ENGAGE. And the sad part is cotto wasnt even landing like he did against molsey when he pulled this bull****. so he ran, got outlanded, and somehow won a split decision. Yeah get the **** outta here.

    kinda stupid to me, i can't say how he feels but realistically, stock ain't drop much.....and he can still go pick up another title, or even move up to 154, or fight Berto, he still has plenty of options to be honest

    but then again, i dont know how it is to lose the fight of your life in a close one

    especially one in which you won, but lost due to politics/atmosphere/whatever.
