He fought well to be honest. He was not hit really clean until he was knocked down in the later rounds -Cotto started to land that left uppercut/hook and that was when Judah was stopped. But Cotto was slowly overwhelming Judah and wearing him out like Hagler used to wear guys out, just with sheer strength. But then the punches started to land clean and Judah couldn't take it. But good effort. I think Judah is a good fighter but he is not great. He still lacks a certain instinct which a great fighter has to pore it on when he has to to win a fight.
