    are you sure? can you prove this?

    Mayweather and Cotto are made to fight each other.. The perfect welterweight fight.. Both are good all around and both have never faced anyone like each other.. Too bad we have to wait until '09..

    I'm sure to all Cotto fans he did clearly win the fight. Merchant had it a draw. Lederman had it 6-5 going into the 12th, then somehow scored the 12th to Cotto. Many posters on this site scored it a draw or in Mosley's favor. I have no problem with the decision, but that was a close fight.

    To me Cotto was so much more in control in that fight with his Jab. Mosley wasn't jabbing at all, Cotto was landing his jab sooooo much. It was the difference in the fight without a doubt.

    After rewatching it and viewing who landed the majority of clean punches, I had it 7-4-1 Cotto. Could have seen it 7-5 or even 8-4.

    Void never wants to fight Cotto, never. He refused to fight Margarito for a huge payday.
