You HAVE to respect Clottey!!

Cotto or Clottey never sereiously appeared hurt in the fight. I believe the reason Josh didnt go after Cotto was the body shots. It was a good close fight and I had cotto winning 114-113. People shouldnt take away from Cotto cause her toook all Clottey had and more.

I dont think either guy seemed badly hurt at any time in the fight. Aside from Cottos cut and Clotteys knee of course.

Neither fighter was really hurt in the fight. Maybe people saw a few flush shots and assumed the fighter was hurt. There is a strong difference between punches that hurt and actually being hurt. Hard flush shots hurt but it doesn't mean your well being as a fighter is hurt. Even the knockdown was just an off balance knockdown. But I was annoyed with Clottey looking for petty ways to get deductions. The slip, the weak lowblow, the rabbit punch, all this happens in the course of fighting and he got dramatic with every single incident. Meanwhilefor 9 rounds a huge gash is over Cotto's left eye and bleeding in it and Cotto never even got discouraged.
