I kind of thought Cotto won.

    I grasp it fine. There are different things different people like more when it comes to fights and judging is just one of those things.

    It doesn't matter what you like. What matters is the criteria for scoring fights.

    Right and there is nothing wrong with my criteria. Close fights exist.

    You are all over the place in one thread it was somewhat close, in others it wasn't. Anything to discredit Roach just because of your irrational Pac hate. **** off Jeff M. **** you.

    As I said there is a big difference between rounds being close and someone winning the majority of the rounds. I see you still fail to understand that. What in the world does Pac have to do with this? Very strange response. What are you so angry about anyways?

    The criterion for scoring prize fights is clearly established and there was nothing about it that would justify Cotto getting more than 4 rounds at best.

    I just don't see how Cotto won this, I see all these scores and I think maybe I'm the one in the wrong but it almost seems outlandish to me...

    I had it 117-111 same as the judge, I'll accept maybe that's a bit too wide but no way Cotto even has a case for a draw IMO.

    Nope you're spot on, I had it 118-110 but 117-111 is acceptable too, anything else is insanity.

    No, I don't fail to understand that, as that's exactly what I said in the main fight thread. I don't have a problem with Canelo winning.

    Strange response? Nah, you hate Roach for his affiliation with Pac and his past with the Mayweathers etc. You can't help to say the fight wasn't close so Roach can be seen as a "failure" here. Carry on.

    While I didnt think Cotto won, I had Canelo edging it maybe 115-113. But good post. :deal

    Don't see how you can have Cotto winning this.

    I had Canelo winning but come on! That was not a one sided fight. Sure Canelo looked bigger and stronger and in no danger of being hurt but i think that changed some people perception of the fight. I thought cotto won some rounds early but Canelo took over from the 5th round on and i fount it hard to give him more than a round after that. I had it 8-4 116-112

    I was watching the fight with about 10 people in a Mexican household, and that is not a joke lol, and we all thought Canelo won 7-5. I don't know what the hell the judges saw.
