    That was ****ing CLASSLESS.

    what the ****. And imo fighters should never bring their kids to the fight anyways. Even if they think they're gonna win its too violent.

    after they fight they showed some highlights of Pac whipping Cotto's ass and right before the knockout they showed Cotto's wife all hysterical with his son looking like a ghost.

    I agree with you PHILLA. Never take your kids to see you fight...Ever!

    Same god damn thing happened with Cotto vs Magarito, you would have thought they'd have learned their lesson.

    when someone else first brought it up, I thought "whatever, they're just showing the public some drama."

    But today i wanted to put the highlights up on youtube, and that little segment is right before the knockout. And after seeing it, I realise I just can't put a vid online of some kid seeing his dad get his ass kicked while his mom is totally freaking out. Its just immoral.

    they can sit in a suite somewhere unnoticed. They want the glory, take the pain. And we're not talkin about the kid. The parents. Sorry. Can't blame HBO. Public figures. Why should anyone in the first couple rows be censored? Take the good with the bad or don't sit there.

    As a parent myself, I can understand bringing your family to your biggest fights to celebrate in your victory with you. But seeing her and his son was gut wrenching and something I could have done without. They were well within their right to show it, I just wish they hadnt.

    There's a reason Ricky Hatton forbade his son from watching the fight or coming to Vegas. That being said, the internet isn't the most helpful tool in protecting children...

    So Cotto wanted them to revel in his victory, yet they thought he couldn't lose so they wanted front row tickets to see Cotto beat PacMan. I guess Cotto can start his own t.v. series named, "When Things Go Bad in Front of Your Family, Part II."
