    You gave him round 3, A round he clearly got outworked in and round 4 even, a round Cotto dominated. And than you gave Cotto no credit for the 10th round when he indeed landed the best punches in that round. Wow, now I know why your saying the stuff your saying.

    haha dominated round 4 he had a nice rally down the stretch but not much CLEAN PUNCHING clotteys was the cleaner work. Round 10 cotto landed 2 hooks in the final 10 seconds and was outboxed the rest of the round and round 3 clotteys work again was cleaner

    Here's the deal with Cotto. He runs, but unlike Leonard, Hoya againsy Tito, or Mayweather, Cotto does not get the upperhand when he's on the backfoot. He gives away solid positioning and gets beaten up while running. Cotto will get ko'd again, very soon.

    Haahaaha, yeah we'll see about that. Funny that you say he gets beatin up when he runs, because when he was supposedly running against Mosley he was still landing the cleaner shots. But yeah your right, he gets beat up everytime he runs.

    Oscar De La Hoya.

    It is clear in my eyes that this is the case.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess you might as well say he didn't land anything against clottey in the 4th round by your logic and add to the fact he outworked him. Like I said before, he beat Clottey with one eye and would of did it more convincingly if the cut didn't occur and you know it.

    he runs he resets throws a combo then runs again and it repeats the guys incapable of using effective lateral movement whilst punching

    And it works. It works so good, not only because he usually lands the cleaner shots and effectively picks off the punches while he's doing it but judges give him the rounds when he does it. :roll:

    So when and if he beats Mayweather and the fight is close, are you still gonna downplay him and say all he does run or are you gonna give him credit?
