Midnight Boxing: Miguel Cotto vs Joshua Clottey Post Fight

[Devega33]

@TruSmokka13 hes not overrated... margarito proven used with plaster. Cotto just faced a guy with 2 handed boxer who got power and well condition boxer.

[pochyeloco]

cotto needs to make some pichos with that fat friend he has faggots

i heard clottey may fight shane mosley. Hes gonna want it in that fight cause hes pissed about being robbed against cotto

[ericostien]

these clottey fans r jack asses. score the fight round by round cotto clearly wins 115-113 tell clottey to not get his ass dropped on the canvas next time!!

[177bandit]

...look,Cotto could of stop the fight in the 4th and go to the cards and get the "w",but he fought on till the end,now turn the tables and i'll bet you Clottey would have done exactly that...

[LacosteDon]

ohyea no doubt dont get me wrong im not saying clottey is wak not at all he is a warrior cant wait for his next fight

[leyva905]

come on ppl b honest cotto lost that fight.what happen was that bob arum is looking 4 more money w/ a fight with pac

[MYTMIC]

Dude you can explain how and why Cotto should of quit as a result of the cut all you want, but the point is, he didn't stop the fight, he got whipped by Clottey and they gave him a gift. And for your info, Judah was not cut by a headbutt it was a punch and he wussed out and rightfully lost. Cut or not, Cotto couldn't do nothing with Clottey but foul him. Cotto's only good round was when he slammed Clottey and hurt his knee, otherwise it was all Clottey. Gift Decision plain and simple.

[LacosteDon]

yes judah got hit with a punch but they said headbutt so he used it to get out of the fight but thats not the topic really..... i have downloaded the fight maybe you should watch it more then once and you will notice that clottey stayed to defensive towards the end.. plain and simple

[MYTMIC]

In the late rounds what you see is Cotto running his azz off trying to survive, throwing soft flurries that do absolutely 0 damage, while Clottey controls that ring, is clearly the aggressor, and clearly throwing the better shots. If you think Cotto won that fight, then you have pretty low standards.

[LacosteDon]

0 damage? really? lol thats why when they asked clottey why didnt he throw more punches towards the end and see if he can finish a damaged cotto he said ~ cotto can bang and i didnt want to get caught...... so 0 damage my ass look at his face when he takes those punches they did hurt he is a human not a machine so for you to say zero damage is crazy cuz then he would have just thrown punches and not worried about getting hit like margarito did...... so whats next?

[MYTMIC]

As I said in the last post, if you think Cotto won that fight, you have very low standards.

[LacosteDon]

i really thought you were going to put up a better debate on this topic but i guess you ran out of facts its all good homie be easy

pe@ce

[MYTMIC]

As far as your example with Judah, Clottey beat Judah's ass just like he beat Cotto's. Clottey is the welterweight azz whipper.

[mustaff4530]

I like what Berto is doing. He stays away from this Pacman, Cotto, and Floyd soap opera and just fights his mandatories. Everybody is looking for these big fights too early cutting their careers short. Give some of these other guys opportunities, build yourself up with maditories then take a big fight later, like great fighters do. Big ups to Berto.

[LacosteDon]

good thinking bro

[NotYourTypicalLatino]

Clottey was no tune-up more like an engine re-build.....haha. Got to give the man my respect, he is a tough son of a bitch. But his style of fighting is killing his chances of bigger success in my opinion. To the average boxing fan/viewer his style is Boring, just like quartey and wright. (most people like to see a FIGHT not a chess match) If these type of fighters don't do something to make themselves more exiting to watch, well they must not need the cash. Good Video.

[LacosteDon]

thanks

[jonathandelaroca]

The way I see Cotto winning

The same way Rocky Balboa strategized over Apollo Creed in Rocky II..

Get hit then hit back...

I know its a movie.. but still...

Reply if you agree or disagee

[LacosteDon]

i kinda see what you mean

[northstarsparrow]

Yeah, I see a KO for Pacquiao. Within nine rounds

[2008cben]

Like im saying is speed kills and after the fight is over you will need to admit this and make a post video of how wrong you are like it happen after all pacmans fight you all are none believer until now

[LacosteDon]

wtf you talking about i never said cotto would win or pacquiao would win i just think it would be a better fight at 147lb because they can fight for the title......w0w

[ramknowlege]

@2008chen why did u block me girl i was only trying to holla at a bitch damn can u blame a nigga ...........yo my man speak the fuck up!!!

[bunce101]

Trust me guys, styles make fights, Manny Pacquaio will destroy Cotto the way he did Hatton, Cotto(like Hatton and Oscar) is a natural southpaw fighting off the orthodox stance, Manny will lay on Cottos left side all night and though the right hook behind Cottos left jab like he did hatton and de la hoya, hear it here fight, Manny Pacquaio via KO within 1-6

[arielito1]

Hattons not a narural southpaw. Cotto wouldv KO ODLH quicker and bloodied Hatton to a pulp and retire him SURELY

[dawidziwsko]

If Clottey could've knocked Cotto out, he would have. He didn't because he couldn't, it's really that simple. Maybe it was all the counter left hooks that had him thinking twice? Or, that perfectly timed jab that put him down? Or, all the body shots he took? Or, maybe his hands and elbows were hurting from blocking all the punches? It's also possible, and very likely, that Clottey lacks heart. A fighter (Clottey) who is so ready to call another (Cintron) a pussy, is probably projecting a little

[LacosteDon]

no doubt bro

[arielito1]

Cotto was never hurt if anyone was hurt it was Clottey, on several occasions

[2008cben]

Now if the pacman decide to fight this guy at 147 I wonder what other excuses all you Cotto Mayweather or even Marquez fan or doubters of pacman gonna say about the fight what non of you realized is the only concern the pacman team has is all this welterweight natural weight is 170 and that is too heavy for him but not a big advantage who is really fast and great hooks with the left now also the right this fight wont last I see the pacman knocking out Cotto like he did to hatton... go pac

[LacosteDon]

?????

i see a good fight but no way would it be like Hatton bro lets be real c'mon

[Jsoyummy]

shxt*

[Jsoyummy]

yooo dique cotto v. packman -__- thats a fight worth watchin cant believe ima say this but i have my doubts but im still goin for cotto!!! lol sits gonna b crazy !!! Nov.14!!!

[TysonJunior18]

good to see the boxing vids back

[LacosteDon]

thanks

[585WeDaBest]

@LacosteDon

Whaddup Lacoste..... I had Cotto winning the fight and i had it scored 114-113...... Clottey's inactiveity late in the fight cost him and didn't end Cotto where he had the chances too especially with the gash over his eyebrow..... But Cotto is a straight warrior and he found a way to win.....

Hopefully Cotto takes the rest of the year off and rests his body and let the other fighters duke it out......

[mustaff4530]

I agree but some people want to run Cotto into the ground and I totally disagree with that. Bob Arum is trying to set Cotto up to lose with little time to prepare for a fight with Pacman meanwhile Pacman is fully rested.

[585WeDaBest]

@mustaff4530

Yeah i dunno why these people are trying to run Cotto to the ground for and i can't stand Bob Arum anyways.... I agree bro that i believe Bob Arum is trying to set up Cotto to lose..... I think Cotto definitely needs to rest especially that gash in his eye needs time to heal as well....

[mustaff4530]

I'm glad somebody see things the same way I do. Bob Arum is not trying to put on fights where fighters are not at their best.

[585WeDaBest]

@mustaff4530

I believe Miguel Cotto should rest and let these other guys beat eachother up and then Cotto could make a return to the ring possibly in late 09' or the beginning of 2010.......

[Jsoyummy]

=D ..... THE PARADE WAS POPIN !!!! but my boo ( cotto ) didnt go this year. i agree with what u saying good vid. i just post a comment sayin the same exact thing clotty got cocky n lost. & if it wasnt becuz dat head bust cotto would of murder him. clotty didnt go hard in da last 2 round thats why he lost.

[chevalier8076]

yo bro what is all this bull that im reading about MAYWEATHER???? there not fighting no more??what happend?

[LacosteDon]

yea bro he supposedly injured his ribs some how and the fight is postponed till around September if he is able to train if not then either for a farther date or canceled

[chevalier8076]

nice vid!! i agree wiyh you! his eye was cut,and that is why he got hit so many times,other wise if it wasnt for that cut we would had seen a different ending of that fight! but things happend in this sport and like cotto did you need to ajust to it!!! nice video bro!! let me ask you this do you think he need hes uncle back on his conner?? i did not like the way his trainer and cut man handle it in the coner!!!and i think he need to fight one more fight before he jumps on MANNY, maybe berto!!!!

[LacosteDon]

ok i agree with you about the trainer thing but not his uncle i think he needs one of those legit trainers that all these top fighters have i never understood why cotto is with an assistant trainer.......but yea Berto needs to finally step it up big time and quit bullshiting because he is a champ not a contender

[hume12345]

this video sums up my thoughts on the matter. thanks for taking the time to make it.

[LacosteDon]

glad to hear

thank you for taking the time to watch

peace bro

[sidelateral]

Excellent analysis and recap in the vid.

[LacosteDon]

thanks for the criticism bro glad you enjoyed more to come

[luisjayson]

I feel the like u cotto won on heart!! Pos data :Luck next year with the Magic LOL!!

[LacosteDon]

lol thanks

GO MAGIC

[LOPS666Orange]

IMO Cotto did not look good in the Clottey fight....he look slow and less fluid..his movement was SHIT. He needs to get a REAL TRAINER...

Compare teh Cotto of MOsley and early rounds of Margarito...Clottey would have ZERO chance to beat that guy...

[Voice4Vendetta]

In your opinion a man with one eye was not moving correctly against a much bigger fighter with personal issues behind himself as well aside from having one eye.

Thats a nice opinion.

I would see that way as well if I was a JACKASS

[LOPS666Orange]

Voice...Look BITCH even before the cut Cotto look slow and to methodical. I had Cotto winning the fight by 1 or 2 pts, but the TRUTH is that he still seem to not have fully recover from Margarito's cast rock wraps....

Compare the Cotto from Mosley and Margarito...to the Cotto of Clottey he look slow...and was getting hit by two-three shots consecutive w/out even blocking...Clottey would hit him w/ a left uppercut...Cotto would just take it, he would hit him w/ the same punch..and just take it..

[Voice4Vendetta]

How you gunna call me a bitch with a gay ass screen name ending orange.

If you dont got variety to your argument then shuta the fucka upa

[LOPS666Orange]

Voice...Bitch...u have no argument....

Cotto has above average hand speed...how many fighters have you seen outbox and outpunch MOsley/? Not even DLH could do it..only a bigger guy in Winky....

[Voice4Vendetta]

Timing

[LOPS666Orange]

and is Cotto the only fighter in history to fight w/ a CUT over his eye??? IT happens in 60-70% of fights...you deal with it...and COTTO dealt with it...

But his hand speed look slow..his footwork looked slow and sloppy. It was like he was never in position to land his punches.....maybe it had to do w/ Clottey shell defense...

[Voice4Vendetta]

All of a sudden cotto is a mobile fighter with blinding speed and flickering combination.

You know cotto was the light skinned guy with the red shorts right?....

[LOPS666Orange]

Voice...are you stupid??

Cotto has above hand speed..he had enough speed to outbox SHANE MOSLEY...

Just because i said Cotto looked slow and less fluid doesn't mean he is some sort of speed demon like Pac or Mosley....

Cotto was slower than usual even before teh cut...look at Cotto vs. MOsley/Margarito..tell me he was moving at the same speed..and was as balance as the one taht fought Clottey..

[Voice4Vendetta]

Well Clottey is pure strength and size aside from a defense turtle shell.

Cotto never was fast,he just has perfect timing.

Speed is average at least.

By the way what the fuck does cotto has above hand speed mean

[mcriss79]

i respect cotto's fight game but feel he lost a decision,props 2 cotto 4 continuing after a bad cut,cause i thought he was gonna quit,but he is a good fighter,pacquiao is 5 times faster than josh and would give cotto hell at 142 or 3 but at 147 cotto's 2 strong 4 pac but pac is light year's ahead of miguel in pound 4 pound talk,he's just naturally smaller,miguel will outweigh him by 15 pounds on fight night.that fight saturday was great 4 boxing,good vid... peace bro.

[LacosteDon]

thanks bro

[goldglove]

Lacost......your hair getting longer,a few months you'll have the fro.

[LacosteDon]

lol i had it but then i cut it

[goldglove]

Great fight,round6when Cotto had Clottey against the ropes Clottey WAS hurt,my opinion.He has never been hit that hard and thats why in the later rounds he was hesitant to pull the trigger.You don't get knocked down by one punch by someone without serious power.I liked Clottey until this fight,it appeared he was a sore loser and his hollywood acting was stupid.Check out the look on Cottos's face when he hit Clottey with the rabbit punch to the back of the head.Says it all.Cotto 115 Clottey 113.

[BeasTxMode2000]

By the way did you hear what his corner was calling Cotto? CABALLO, love that nickname. they translated it as stallion for those who dont speak spanish. it can also mean Thoroughbred, or horse.

[LacosteDon]

lol yea

[lportoroc]

Come to think of it I don't now why this fight between Cotto and Clottey wasn't a unification bout since he holds the IBF title. Cotto should be holding both belts right now WBO and IBF. I would love to see Cotto and Pacquiao got at it at and I don't think it is a clear cut victory for Pac. This fight would be very close and exciting also there would be no blowout here. They have both fought some of the best out there and that's what would make the match up special, but it should be at 147.

[LacosteDon]

yep 147 for the title it just makes it more interesting

[lportoroc]

Cotto does not need to give Clottey a rematch. For what? I think it's about time some one else besides Cotto and Mosely show some balls in the division. In particular Maywether since he is already procaliming himself the P4P king once again which is bullshit. You have to beat the best to be the best, and sure as hell has not beaten the best in the division yet. I would love to see him fight some of these tougher fighters at welterweight. As for Pacquiao he deserves the P4P crown.

[LacosteDon]

i feelya on that no doubt

[lportoroc]

He is a superstar the bottom line is when you fight the best you are not going to just blow them out. That's what makes for good fights and excellent match ups. I would have loved to seee how Maywether would do against the likes of Margarito,Mosely or Clottey. Maywether has certainly not blown away any of the top welter weights in the division yet he is considered a superstar. He didn't look great against Dela hoya or Hatton at the beginning. In fact he was almost droped by Hatton.

[BeasTxMode2000]

cotto definately has balls of steel but seing this fight and the margarito fight tells me he isnt going to be the superstar we all thought. How can he look like such a monster againts weaker apponents. this fight reminded me so much of the margarito fight except the part were clottey stop throwing punches.

[LacosteDon]

i see what you mean but what if he woulda never got the accidental headbutt.. do you believe the fight would have been the same? i dont think so do you?

[BeasTxMode2000]

thats true, i guess we need a rematch. even pacquiao when he got the cut againts marquez seemed to panic. also gotta give Cotto credit for not stopping the fight when he knew he was up in the cards.

[LacosteDon]

yea its just to much what if..... that was a great fight tho

[lportoroc]

I find it so hipocritical that a lot of people have the opinion that Cotto was running. Yet he had a badly cut eye, and was just using ring general ship and strategy to ensure a victory. The part that is hipocritical is that many of those same people are the same ones that call Maywether jr. a defensive genious for doing the same thing! Not only does he do the same thing, but he does it from the very beginning of the fight till the end against lesser competition. What a load of horse shit.

[makajam]

Yo I had that fight as a draw at best for Clottey...or a 1 point win for Cotto...I'm totally with you that Clottey did not show a heart of a champion by taking Cotto out completely!

[TML1988UK]

I scored it to Cotto by 1 point, Clottey threw the fight away in the last 3 rounds, was a great fight though and if i am honest i would not have argued the decision had it gone the other way thats how tight i thought it was, I'm a huge Cotto fan as it is, and now i respect the guy even more for fighting on weith the cut

[arrowakano]

mayweather dont wanna fight jmm now. u know why?cause cotto looked vunerable ,so he figures he can shut every body up now by fighting a real welter he feels cotto is ready to b taken,if cotto would of blew out clottey the jmm fight would still b on

[kingzdomain13]

Get on hiz bicycle ummm so that means dat the G.o.a.t was a runner or someone who was a smart fighter! knew when to fall back, counter, stick-n- move! float like a butterfly sting like a bee! remeber! to say Cotto runs when tired nahhh i see it defferent a smart fighter is a person who knows hiz limitationz and knowz when 2 use tactics to gain the edge at hiz weakest!

[LacosteDon]

perfectly said

[Brooklyn9mmClan]

What the Hell r u talking about,

Let see if Cotto could have just quit and he would have won AKA like Judah

(and I am nut a Judah fan Just a boxing fan)

1) Let see if both judies have the fight close your one sided comments r a joke.

2) Remember if u goes to the judges you must be up on the cards.

3) Judah was winning with Clottey, and yes he dogged it but you not talking about Judah, Bad Corporation!

4) If a hit in the Nuts is 5 mins, What the hit does u get for a body slam?

[Brooklyn9mmClan]

Part - 2

5) If Clottey would have slam Cotto, Your Boy would you have seen it that way.

6) I havent seen a longer time-out between a round since helicopter man.

7) Check it out with No Foul Notice in the whole clip you dont say any thing about that. WOW

8) You said on your card you had it close like the two judges, if so then what you said at 1,2,3 makes make no Dam Sense.

9) Ok, Let me stop because you did say that you pulling for Your Boy

10) Yo Keep Pulling For Ur Boy!

[LacosteDon]

yoo i understand your trying to debate with me but i can barely understand what you just wrote all i know is you think clottey won thats cool peace

[Tenpin]

Great fight, went the way I was thinking more or less. Cotto showed a lot of hart and a good chin, answered all the questions posed after the Margarito fight. Clottey had this fight won and let it slip away, like you said you got the impression that Clottey could have ended the fight if he had committed more to his punching. I'm a UK fan so watched this fight at like 5 in the morning so Ill have to see it again to see what I think of the decision, at the time I thought Cotto did enough.

[aznvedz]

i think cotto said he's willing to fight pac no less than 145lb..meaning he can fight pac at 145...pac moving up to 147 is not fair, at the same time, cotto moving down to 140 is not fair either...so i think 144-145 is fair...make the 2 go halfway. i think 10million payday might convince cotto to lose 1-2 more lbs below 145 i think.

[P4p775]

hey bro but wat the best have done is move up in weight.

i wanna see cotto at his best 147, not at a catchweight cause then wats the whole reason of weightclasses for.

it just makes it more juicier for pacquiao to fight for championship belt.

[aznvedz]

yeah i see that too but i dont think pac will be at his best also if he fights at 147lbs. i hope they just make things simple...either move up one division or stay with your division...meaning if pac cannot fight at 147 then no more mayweather, mosley, and cotto talks and fight bradley, campbell, marquez, etc...but in the end, money still talks w/c is sometimes sad.

[LacosteDon]

lol yea no doubt i feelya on that

[ZAY741]

Hey buddy don;t forget to mention The cement box in his gloves.

[kingzdomain13]

God Bless dat judge 4 seein wat really was going on in dat fight! & dat was dat the one who was fighting was Cotto If u look @ dat fight real good u see wat i saw & dat judge saw and dat was Clottey was wat we call (pussiefooting!) letting the other fighter try 2 tire himself out while doing nothing then try 2 capitlize & win the round wit flurries Also called theRope a Dope! the fight was judged on who really cam 2 fight! ,who was active, who was more determined & not the one who half stepped!

[chonqueo]

Sekondz Out is saying that cotto's fan will blame it on the cut? doug, try fighting with one eye and get a close decision, if u loose fighting with one eye the way cotto fought... I know u would it be fucking peast,sekondz out! don't give me that shit!

[tarukigake]

midnight boxing is simply a pacquiao hater!! thats all!!! this man said de la hoya is too big!!! hatton is big!!! hahah lol!!!

[LacosteDon]

lol wat the fuck bro i like pacquiao i never said hatton was going to beat him? were did you get that from? i was wrong about de la hoya and so was a lot of people its just a prediction im no hater pacquiao comes to fight and leaves it all in the ring why would i hate that? hell i like that bro. man you are mistaken look at my p4p list and see who i have as number one...... manny peace

[MexicanLegend90]

I had Cotto winning by a point.

[bigasstire]

it was a close fight.... being that cotto had a huge gash he did was perfect... kept his ground game

peaceeeeee

[SekondzOut]

Clottey got robbed.......Cotto ran laps around MSG.........I guess his fans will blame it on the cut.

[Wisdom187]

just like Clottey fans are saying he got robbed right?? =) ...seriously theres always an excuse...point is Cotto DID WIN the fight fair and square, mostly because Clottey didnt finisht he job. he barely moved except for maybe the 11th round. its simple Clottey LOST THE FIGHT!!...however it sure as hell wasnt 116-111...lol...that was stupid. i had it 2 point lead for Cotto and im not the only one. Cotto fought like a warrior and anyone denying it just dont know boxing.

[lportoroc]

Sekondzout are U kidding me? Cotto did what he had to do to win the fight. U make me laugh because people like u think Maywether is a defensive master when he does the exact same thing, and he does it from round 1without even being injured. As for running laps he was still throwing punches, and he would back Clottey up and get him on the ropes. So what's the boig fucken deal? This fight was way to close to be called a robbery.

[gio92307]

good point bout cotto fighting as best as he could with a cut. he woulda won easy if it wernt 4 the cut

[kg21carlito]

i think it was a tight either way but the scores 116-111 was bs. Cotto is a true warrior and his cutman did a great job on that cut. good vid.

[kingrafa212]

it was close but i felt clottey was better

[iLLJeFF3XI]

I thought Cotto won, I had it even after 11 rounds and Cotto won it in the 12th. Teddy Atlas said it right, Clottey doesnt deserve to complain because he looked like he didnt want it more than Cotto especially at the end of the fight.

[BloodBoxing]

they ripped Clottey off man

[aznvedz]

nhaa..not ripped man, i think it's a very close fight. both cotto and clottey are tough warriors!

[Kwamiii21]

Cotto LOST the fight.

[Wisdom187]

you must have watched a different fight then, or you must think not throwing punches and giving rounds away to Cotto was a good plan to win because if you do, go learn boxing again my man.

[Kwamiii21]

Cotto gets respect for fighting Clottey in the 1st place. Plus, I give him even more respect for carrying on after the nasty cut!!

But, Clottey won the fight, he landed much more punches (222-179) and he landed way more POWER punches (168-122) Cotto landed one more jab. (55-54).

Thats called an unofficial defeat for Cotto.

[Wisdom187]

so you would have been happy if Cotto took the easy way out and took the win after the 4th round when he was easily in the lead?..or would Clottey fans argue about that too?...fact is Clottey was Shelled up most of the fight and didnt finish off a tired, and heavily bleeding Cotto. he doesnt deserve to cry after that one man.

[charliegarbs]

I dont agree, yes he hit Cotto with more shots and landed more, but Cotto won more rounds. Its as simple as that

[ZAY741]

an unofficial lose in his win record!!!! WOW! I'll take it..... Clottey didn't show up for rounds 10-12 and that's it. even though Clottey thru more punches He didn't show up for rounds 10-12 bottom line

[fitnessboyPR]

yeah but cotto clearly the harder shots, knock him down in the 1 rnd, and showed alot more spirit, was close but the knockdown, cotto showed more hart, and speed and clottey didnt throw almost anything cuz his arms where to heavy cuz of blocking cottos punches, clottey crying like a bitch made the difference.

Cotto was cutted badly by a hed but5 and didnt cry, and fucked him up in rnd t5

115-112 great, 116-111 wtf that judge saw? stupid

[cyclone927]

I saw Cotto win yesterday, I didnt see any "robbery" or whatever. Cotto is the champion,you gotta fucked up a champion to be a champion and Clottey didnt take advantage of that nasty ass cut. I would love to see a rematch hell I wanna see a Margarito and Mosley rematch.

[Cangr1]

Yo what up lacoste. Long time no see. Glad to have you back bro. I felt the fight was close and the only thing im pissed about is the scoring for the fight. Other than that it was a great fight.

[Voice4Vendetta]

Cangr1 wat up

[Cangr1]

What up my boi Rob? Changed your sn I see.

[Voice4Vendetta]

had to...people hatin lol

[WRX2]

Base on cotto's performance last night. Even at 147 lbs. where his best at, I believe it wont be enough to stop Manny Pacquiao at that weight. At the start of 5th round he is super slow for Pacman. Pacman will tear him apart with his speed.

[littlejr07]

wierd if that true rodge was making a big fuz about that bro. he don't want pac to fight cotto at 147 know clottey never was knockdown no one can break his d. know pac he had been hit a million of time. he don't have a good d. and really should stay away from cotto at 147. thats why they want to get cotto at 143 so he can kill him self doing it and pac got all the advantage. no desrespect look at the fact first bro. peace. this is a debate on what you say nothing personal bro.

[ginogeno]

Pacman vs Cotto at 147 this fight will be huge the puerto ricans gave pacman a huge applause when they showed his face.

I think this fight would do better numbers then mayweather vs pac/cotto.

They can get an easy 250,000 ppv buys from the puerto ricans, and like 400,000 buys from the filipinos, and then maybe another 400k from americans.

[flipstarrrr]

agreed... i was at the garden for that fight... all the puerto ricans went nuts when pacman's face was shown on the jumbo tron....

[ginogeno]

Freddie Roach needs to stop telling fighters to cut weight.

Pac has never fought at a catch weight before though he fought oscar at 147 and hatton at 140 but this would be his first catch weight fight.

[makajam]

You LD, did you hear Mayweather vs Marquez is postponed...looks like Pretty Boy suffered a rib injury....shiieeet!

[LacosteDon]

yea i heard

[1PrettyB0y1]

floyds injured fight postponed, so by da time da marquez-floyd fight is rescheduled, manny gona want a fight sooner than dat, dat makes cotto-pacquiao more probable, cotto definitely has stamina problems tho

[KASHLAMDA]

there is no point saying you could have stopped a fighter if you had done this or that after the fight has ended...the fact is that the sport of boxing is also about using your head right then and there in the ring...there only one opportunity to do what you have to do.

& people are saying that Cotto was running when he was being intelligent, using his footwork & boxing because he couldn't SEE! Lets get real people please! I give Miguel full credit for that win. My sympathy goes to Clottey but I really dont like it when people say...this could have happened or that could have happened... Continued/

You talk so much sense bro. You totally hit the nail on the head. Nobody seems to realise how positive the performance was for Cotto. I give him full respect to stay in and win against a top fighter like Clottey. Did people think that this was an easy fight for Cotto? Hell no! This was a tough fight & he got the Decision. Nobody has thought...What if Cotto didn't get cut in rnd 3...he would have fought even better!! Continued/

Cotto didn't look good at all, where's his power at anymore and he was tired by the 5th round!!!!

[KASHLAMDA]

Iknow he didn't look at his best but he still did what he had to do in the fight&Clottey didn't..put your self in his shoes.imagine fighting a tough guy like Cottey with blood in youreyes.the intelligent thing todo is look after yourself sothat the fight doesn't get stopped & try & stay ahead on points.thats exactly what hedid & I respect that..if a fighter is tired at the end of a fight it doesn't mean they have lost..if Cotto had no power and was really tired..why didn't Clottey knock him out?

[Natainos]

well when you fight against rocks you are nit the same, that is why this fight was important for Cotto's career , so MARGO DID Cheat and Clottey faced a guy after the punishment! But Cotto is back!

[bigstah]

Hey I have a Question for you: I believe that this fight proves that Margarito didn't cheat against Cotto because Clottey almost pulled off the same strategy....He slacked off and got too conservative but I think that the styles do make fights and Clottey proved it....I know its a little off topic but I believe that this fight showed that Cotto for a while looked the same way he looked against Margarito....WHAT DO YOU THINK

[LacosteDon]

i feel you on that but i believe we woulda never seen that if he didnt get cut

[lds545i]

LacosteDon: Agreed it would have not been so close if cotto didn't get cut. Clottey was trying to pull a margacheater by waiting for cotto to gas out after the 6th round unfortunately it cost him a razor sharp loss. And the oscar goes to Clottey for the great perfomance in cotto vs clottey. Cotto out worked him period.

There waz no controversy at all in that fight!!! The fight could have went either way,and they gave it 2 Cotto,There waz no robbery at all
