    It did, but wiping could have taken ten seconds or less, and Bengie turned it into a tea party.

    For the record, I'm not someone who believes this significantly altered the fight outcome. At the time though, it seemed suspect.

    Only to those who felt Cotto was in danger of going down. Which is funny, because I don't think Shane even felt that way. One thing Shane has is a killer instinct, and when he smells blood he goes completely ape****. If he felt he had Cotto hurt, I don't think he would have been complaining about a wet spot on the canvas. After regaining his balance, he would have went straight for the kill.

    Mosley could have beat him, aging or not, he just fought the wrong fight. Should have been more aggressive and active and he could have got it done, he decided to wait in there and got outboxed.

    Pacquiao by TKO in 5 by the way.

    Cotto won it. Very close but clear IMO. However, if they meet again it's Mosley by KO with all certainty.

    I saw it last night AGAIN because people still believe Mosley got robbed. I scored it 7 rounds to 5, 115-113 for Cotto AGAIN.

    You're a horrible poster...You can say the Cotto/Clottey fight was a draw but to say Cotto won the Mosley fight only cuz they fought in MSG is pathetic...Bet you didn't even watch the fight.

    Anyone who claims they think Mosely beat Cotto is full of ****, it was a clear Cotto victory (& neither is my favourite fighter, I actually picked SSM to win so was more on his side)

    NO Mosley doesnt. He said he got robbed at MSG thats why hes not gonna fight Cotto unless its on the west coast. I had it a draw myself

    Not really sure why. The decision was fair.

    Mosley said he won the rematches with Forrest and Wright but didn't seem to dispute the Cotto fight.

    Interesting, as I thought the Cotto fight was definitely closer than the Wright rematch.
