I officially can not listen to Pauli & Ranello, I had these 2 clowns on mute the whole fight.
I've hated Ranello for a long time, had to deal with his corny ass for 8 years from watching MMA. He's always been shit IMO. Paulie has potential IMO but is still "finding his voice" as a commentator I guess.

As for the fight... I had it 117-111, agreed with the 2 judges. I don't think Trout won 11 rounds like one judge though, but at least they gave it to the right guy.

It would have been a crying shame if they screwed Trout out of that hard-fought victory.

Cotto has done big things in the boxing game, and I think if he's thinking about retirement then this may be an opportune time to go through with it. He's had some tough wars, best to quit and get into the promoting game so he can live with a good quality of life after boxing. Either way I wish him the best because he was a hell of a fighter.
Mauro Domenico Antonio Ranallo, how can you not like a guy with a strong name like that.

Seriously, I like the way he gets excited, just like most of us do and goes on and on. Hell, he'd fit right in at my house on fight night.

He keeps his job by acting natural and letting the words flow which adds to the excitement. He says what he thinks and is never short on words.

Jim Grey is the guy I'd like to see take a permanent vacation. Grey can ask the stupidest questions, in my opinion. My idea of hell would be having to listening to Jim Grey or Larry Merchant interviewing fighters.

I like Mauro and hope they keep him around.
