Miguel Cotto vs Austin Trout - Saturday night fight/chat thread

[CFH]

It's sad that I'm surprised when judges do the right thing.

[CFH]

Why do fighters bring their kids to watch them get beat up? It's ridiculous.

[CFH]

Cotto's really not one for taking the high road after he loses...

Oh, fuck off with the religious bullshit. Now I want to see Trout get knocked out.

[bzkfn]

Wow. I can live with the 2 117-111 but 119-109 wasn't reflective. Right guy won.

[Spicoli]

Trout fought his ass off. Much respect...calls out Canello and Oscar who are no where to be seen

Brass ball on Cotto, per norm. He has some thinking to do.

This is probably a rhetorical question but I'll answer it anyway.

I've wondered about this myself, and I think the family being there motivates them to try a little harder.

Of course, it could be the old lady saying, "Fuck you, if you think we're missing a chance to be on TV all around the world, you are out of your mind. And you better act like you want us there, too".
It's possible!

Great the judges got it right! Good fight! It might just be time for Cotto to ride into the sunset, if so it's been a fabulous action-packed career.

Congrats to Trout, he fought a good fight.

Miguel looked tired and slow from the start, not sure why, I hope Diaz didn't over train him.
