Cmon guys Cotto won by at least 2 rounds. It was a close fight but Cotto edged it out. What's fair is fair lets stop being biased
Cotto clearly won the fight ... his jab was great his straight right hand was tagging shane all night... the last four rounds was split 2 rounds each... Cotto effectively landed some great shots countering off of shane in the 2 rounds he won out of those last 4.
MOSLEY LOST There is no case for him winning. Who landed the CLEANER more EFFECTIVE punches COTTO. Who won the jab battle COTTO. Who blocked or even tried to block majority of the other guys shots COTTO. Who landed the harder shots COTTO. Even in the later rounds COTTO landed the harder shots on Shane though Shane was chasing he did not do anything but hold and hit little meaningless body punches. Shane landed one hard shot that every now and again but Cotto was tagging him ALL NIGHT in combination.
You got it spot on my man. I tell you Paulfv should change sports. He is a mental midget when it comes to boxing. Shane did not win any of the battles in there. Not one.
I enjoyed this fight from a completely unbiased perspective...it was a close win for Cotto. I don't think you could score it any other way.
Cotto ran like a ***** for the last 4 rounds. Mosely won by at least 2 rounds, thats being generous to Cotto. Even compubox has Mosely winning. Mosely got ****ing shafted.
Even Mosley admitted Cotto won, now unless someone killed your dog calm down and accept reality, it will go easier on you.
Sorry, guys. I've been watching, scoring and covering the fight game for a lonnnggg time. Mosley made Cotto retreat -- fight opposite his style -- for the last 4 rounds of the fight. He out-threw Cotto and hurt Cotto more than Cotto did him. I had it even through 8. But Shane closed the show. You can take whatever shots you want at me, but Mosley made Cotto change his style down the stretch and when I see that happen, that's a clear sign that Mosley had things his way. Sorry, Cotto is very good. Just not as good as Mosley was tonight. Go ahead, I'll be waiting for your own cards and analysis. Nuthugging points don't count. A bad night for judging. Shame for the sport.
I think the bottom line is that it was a close fight that could have gone 7-5 either way. It wasn't a robbery of epic proportions the way people are saying.
I used to respect some of you guys but you clearly must all be drunk or high. Shane did flashy nothings. Shane got on his toes and boxed but got hit the same as he did constantly early in the fight. Shane could not avoid Cottos jab or right hand if his life depended on it. Cotto just landed too clean and too often for anything that Shane did which was little to nothing or he would of got Cotto hurt which Cotto was not the whole fight. Shane was the stronger fighter but Cotto out boxed him and just out punched him.
