I agree totally. Both guys did well for themselves. Cotto looked great and Foreman looked good as well. A bit timid in the first two rounds, but then Foreman started opening up in the 3rd and 4th. The crowd was on its feet when they fought on in the 8th and into the 9th. It would have been even better if it got into the championship rounds, but unfortunately a guy slips on the logos and the fight ends before it otherwise would have. (like Dirrell Abraham)

I had it 4 rounds for Cotto, 2 rounds for Foreman going into the 7th. But it was a close fight and an interesting match of styles. It was an important event tonight, and important fight. As I said before, I don't understand why Cotto's gloves were twice the size of Foreman's.
