Cotto would do it. I'd go wtf u doing? Clottey would do it. I'd go wtf u doing?

Anyone else see that, or did it just stand out for me how much it actually happened? I'll really have to rewatch it I guess.
Clottey blocked some shots but Cotto also started to loop his hooks around the guard and shoot the right between the gloves when Clottey was on the ropes, he wasn't landing devastating shots but he was landing, a lot of Clottey's shots weren't landing either especially when Cotto played the ropes, so don't know why people are bringing up the hitting on the gloves, let's be honest here, Clottey put up a great fight but IMO he never really hurt Cotto, and if he wasn't able to capatilize against a one eyed Cotto, in a rematch i don't see him doing much better, IMO if there's a rematch and Cotto doesn't get a huge gash like the one from last night, he would most likely outbox Clottey a lot easier the second time around, honestly looked to me that Cotto was the stronger guy out there, he would push his way to get Clottey on the ropes, and even if he didn't land it all, he kept his man there, Clottey against a one eyed opponant couldn't, he put up a great effort but IMO Cotto deserved the win, like i said i had Cotto ahead by a round, could easily be 2, no way in hell by 5 points, but a 114-113 score for Cotto is no robbery
