I thought Clottey gave away the last two rounds and therefore the fight. It would have been a better fight if it wasn't for that nasty accidental headbutt. I give Cotto credit for taking this fight, I don't see Shane & Floyd calling out Clottey, and now you see why.
hahahahh hell naoooooooo.... but dood does look like that freak^^^^Quote:

and lets not be too happy about cotto's performance either, at one point he was just running away from clottey
I guess we'll have to wait longer for this:http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/box...ory?id=4258073
i know what u mean...cotto was stealing almost every round by throwin flurries the last 15 seconds. cotto shoulda got in the ring with those usain bolt golden pumas tho. he IS the champ but he was running.Quote:

I had Cotto winning by a point or two. Like said before, Clottey didn't really take advantage when he should have.
Pacquiao negotiating fight with Cotto for November 14. Pacman and PBF sure are making this dream match difficult ha, but if they can both get past Marquez and Cotto, this will definitely help boxing.
I think the only obstacle might be weight. If Cotto has to make a catch weight below 147 then he faces the same problem De la Hoya had. But at this point I think the fight gets made eventually. They have the same promoter, PBF injury means he can't fight any of these two this year, and I think Cotto & Pacman want a megafight of some kind before the year is over. Plus there's too much money involved not to happen though not on the level that PBF would bring.
Anyone seen yesterday's fight between Victor Ortiz and Maidana? Great fight for how short it lasted. There was 4 knockdowns in the first 2 rounds. The fight was pretty even to the 5th when Ortiz welted up and couldn't find a way to stop Maidana's right hand; doctor stopped fight in favor of Maidana.. Both of these boxers have some potential. Hopefully Ortiz could find a better trainer for the future.
^^I saw it. Victor Ortiz needs to learn 2 things before he fights again: 1. Throw a jab. 2. Body punching. He basically does neither. I feel for him he's been through a lot and seems to carry himself like a gentleman. He has good tools but needs a toolbox to work with IMO. But yeah a very entertaining fight, sort of like Transformers 2, LOL.
i saw it....they had been hyping Ortiz, but the Maidana kid looked alot tougher to me.
^^ Yea, they were hyping Ortiz as a "next" De la hoya in the future. But Ortiz had a loss & a draw already. To say the least, I think DLH was a MUCH better fighter than Ortiz at this point in their careers. Maybe the comparison was made to Ortiz bringing fans to boxing shows rather than fighting styles. Maidana was a tough dude indeed, great punch. Ortiz needed to box more & less brawling, Maidana wasn't hard to figure out.
de la hoya was a great fighter in his prime.
Im shocked by some of the hate he gets because he lost some fights when he was over the hill.
