    I would like to see Cotto vs Cintron now.

    Friend of mine at the venue said that the doctor told someone in Foreman's corner to throw the towel in.

    Is it so hard to mop the floor in between rounds? Christ.

    Mercante was out of line. Foreman might have a torn knee and he won't let his OWN TRAINER stop the fight. And he was throwing "shits" and "mother****ers" around every time Foreman slipped as if it were his fault.

    Now Mercante is saying the cornerman denied he threw it.

    Anyway. Mercante isn't to blame here. He did the right thing.

    Which was a cover for what happened.

    I don't think I disagreed with that at all. I mean I'm not disagreeing with the fact that Cotto would've stopped Foreman. Foreman would've lost regardless...but if Foreman has a serious leg injury, it was exascerbated by that.

    Not only that but one of Foreman's trainers said stop the fight. That's a disqualification.

    "At the moment I didn't know."

    No Kellerman, he didn't do the right thing by the rules. Foreman's corner should've been DQed.

    Good win for Cotto, but lets not kid ourselves. This was Yuri Foreman, not Paul Williams or Sergio Martinez. Let the jubilation about him being back start after he conquers someone that is an elite fighter.

    Nope. Pacman may be next. Cotto will be on stand by in case Floyd will really retire and not fight Manny.

    Despite the fact that I rewound the fight and saw the trainer say he did it.


    If the corner says stop the fight. You stop the fight..so he didn't do the right thing.

    This.

    Kellerman: Why did you continue to fight?
    Foreman: Listen, I'm a world champion, now former world champion, I have to fight.

    Or something along the lines of that.

    What a ****ing guy indeed. Much respect.

    How can anybody Knock Macante for what he did. The last this I would want to see is another BS ending to a boxing match
