    According to the poll, 61.67% believe the CW had nothing to do with Cotto's performance, and the rest were *****s.

    Cotto showed the ability to take his best punch and box the **** out of Manny even though HBO tried to make out like Manny was on the verge of killing Cotto in the ring If he wasn't drained who knows what, thats the problems with ****ing catchweights

    Miguel was tight at the weight no doubt , but weight drained , no definately not , he weighed 146 against Clottey so this extra 1 lb wasnt the difference. The styles were.

    A weight drained fighter cannot pull the trigger from round 1 , when in reality he won the first round easy.

    Oscar is the only weight drained fighter Manny has fought in recent times.

    Erm, Cotto obviously didn't show the ability to take his best punch if he was knocked down twice, forced into survival mode after only 4 rounds, and subsequently stopped in the 11th (or whenever it was).

    So stop talking ****. Weighing one pound (one ****ing pound!) less than the previous fight, did not cause all of the above.

    It's well known Cotto walks around at 170+ even when he was fighting at 140, even though Cotto might have been able to shed the 2 pounds, why the knit picking, giving yourself advantage over advantage

    He got put down by punches he didnt see and got up and fought hard, boxing off the backfoot using your jab is not survival mode, this is exactly is what's wrong with boxing right now

    Yes.

    Cotto should have asked Pac to wear heavier gloves to take away Pac's "Speed" advantage.
