    Some of you have already seen this...for those who haven't then enjoy.
    Personally, I hate the amateur scoring system. The judges tend to neglect landed body shots and combination punching doesn't score that well. Usually, if I see a fighter land 2 or 3 punches in a sequence, then the judges usually only count one of those punches. I thought Abdulaev won...but I dont think the margin of points he won by his correct. Pay special attention to the 3rd round and punches landed by Cotto that werent counted.

    good fight. Both are good.

    I thought Cotto scored more clean shots (but i didn't watch the whole thing)
