    Man that's long. Right place at the right time had all that mattered to do with it.

    I don't agree at all. Cotto never looked completely gassed or anything, more a bit listless right from the get go. Regardless though, he was never able to consistently do good work on the inside, Trout was clearly stronger than him and able to tie up or turn him whenever he needed to. He also buzzed Cotto very early on and was never hurt at all himself, so it's a bit of a stretch to put the result down to what Cotto didn't do.
    Trout had a very good style to deal with Cotto, and being much bigger, younger, faster, and stronger didn't hurt either. He had also built up a solid lead well before the championship rounds, whose to say he didn't have a lot more in the tank as well, had he needed it. Having said all that I wasn't terribly impressed by Trout, he isn't very accurate and probably could have mixed it up and extended himself a lot more, I thought. Cotto really looked like a sitting duck in either the 10th or 11th round and Trout still kept teeing off on his guard instead of trying to bait him or really go on the attack. Was only my second time seeing Trout in action but he left the same things to be desired against Delvin Rodriguez imo, be interesting to see if he has another gear.

    So what you're saying, essentially, is that Cotto finds it more tiring to fight very good or elite fighters as opposed to dross.
