***Official*** Miguel Cotto vs Joshua Clottey Round by Round Score Cards

And hopefully Clottey can learn from this fight. I'm sure Clottey won a ton of fans tonight and that's good for him. He's a good tough fighter whose made quality performances against Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito. He's not a chump or a limited fighter, he's underrated.

Nobody looks good against Clottey so anyone who gets a win against him should be very happy.

 

The only time Clottey was ever stumbled with a punch was in the 6th round, after his knee was still sore and he stayed in the corner to gather himself. AFter that, the only time he "stumbled" is when he would try to jab on that big ass Tecata logo in the center of the ring. The ring was in terrible condition tonight.

Also Cotto had one eye, whatever, he still fouled multiple times and had not a single point deduction. As for his defense, it is still as god awful as ever, Clottey repeatedly was catching him with uppercuts and rights before the eye cut.

 

Yeah. I agree with you. Many rounds were close. I scored the fight a draw, but I have no problem with Cotto getting the nod. (In reality, the knockdown in round 1 may have been the deciding factor. I want to watch, and score it, again.) Clottey had the fight in his hands in the 11th and 12th, all he had to do was step up. Evidently, he couldn't do it, for whatever reason.

 

Clottey was dropped by a jab in the first round, not a balance issue watch the replay.
6th round when he was Caught in the corner, being battered around and stumbled.
Forgot what round it was but he got stumble by a big left hook at the end of the round.
And there was more.

Cotto was cut in what, the third round? his def. is not "god awful" he was still able to out maneuver, weave, and block punches with his eye.
Multiple? a shot behind the ear which Clottey tried to get a point deduction from . . and A low blow which was clearly foul but definitely unintentional.

 

So says the guy who had Clottey winning 9 - 3 :rofl GTFOH

 

Cotto and Margarito are diferent fighter if Mosley comes with that strategy against Cotto loses, man a boxing fan a do not know that you need to prepare diferent for diferent fighters, Mosley beat Margo because he hug margo he can take more punches and had a better defense than Cotto thats it. If Cotto do that i would be the same outcome simply Cotto do not have the right strategy like Mosley.

 

HE was dropped because he was off balance, the jab did not hurt him and had no effect on him when he got up. To say it did shows complete nuthuggery on your part, with regard to Cotto.

6th round is the only round you could possible say Cotto hurt Clottey with a punch. I think it was the 8th round where there was a lull and Lampley tried to sell Cotto winning the round with a hook, but ignore the fact that after landing that Clottey came back with a clean landing right of his own.

Cotto's defense is still bad, Clottey was jabbing through his guard, hooking around his body, and landing with the uppercut cleanly before the cut, if slow and weak punching Clottey can do that, what do you think Mosley or Williams are going to do to him if he tries to fight either one.

The throw was definitely intentional, the punch to the head was intentional, the low blow was intentional.

 

The guy is blind he forget that in las vegas the agresor come always the victorous, i don't know why a boxing fan do not notice that i think in Vegas Cotto had won more easly, simply in las vegas and in the west side of the states they like more the agresive fighters in the east side they like more the boxers.

 

Clottey didn't do enough, that's certain, but what was Cotto doing at the time? Moving around, getting a jab in, taking rights to the eye and mostly missing with combos...that's not exactly fight winning material either.

Anyway, this is the most aggressive I've ever seen Clottey, ever, it's just not his thing and the more Cotto moved the less Clottey knew what to do with it. He has his pay bloody and he let it off the hook for too long thinking he was up on cards, his own damn fault.

 

I'll make a blind bet with you. Next elite WW, Cotto faces outside of NYC, he will lose to.

 

But if the fight was 116-11 for clottey

 

It's a JAB - it's not supposed to have devastating effect so of course he got up quick. He got countered with a jab n dropped - go watch again.

 

All you have to do is be aggressive. Clottey threw one punch to Cotto's 4 or 5...that's how it works sometimes in boxing.

This is the Calzaghe/Hopkins and all that sort of fights all over again. At the end of the day, judges can't assume fighters are going to throw punches. They have to throw them.

Clottey can only blame himself.

 

Watch the replay

Clotteys impregnable defense wasnt so tonight, jabs and upper cuts ripping through.

The head butt was intentional. . Not tell me what had more effect on the fighter?

Im done talking to you, you just wanted Clottey to win. take your 9 - 3 and go to hell =p

 

Clottey's defense was only broken in the 6th, outside of that round most of Cotto's punches where being caught on the arms and the gloves, check out the tape.

As for the replay, I am looking at it, Clottey fell because he was off balanced, it is clear as day. Even Manny said, it was a balance issue. The only person acted like it meant **** was Lampley.

How was the headbutt that caused the cut intentional? Both dropped down to punch and their heads collided, Clottey just has tougher skin.

Eat a dick and die nut licker.
