It was a great fight, very close bout....could have goine either way but in truth Clottey impressed me just as much as Cotto if not more.
He fought in a pro Cotto crowd but he did it with true style never gettin rattled once by the biased crowd.
Also the whole face first ting in the corner when he hurt his knee, took balls to get up from that, for a second I thought he hurt himself bad he hit like a ton of bricks dropping.....
Clottey was ver accurate with his punches, though not flashy with big combos like Cotto was he did his job well.
Another thing that impressed me was how strong he was, man that guy is put together, so solid and he absorbs the shots so well, the body shots of Cotto that usually brutalize opponents phased him none....
I was a fan before but I am a bigger fan of Clottey now.
I am also a Cotto fan and credeit needs to be given to him as he dealt with the cut greatly......
There were no losers last night except on paper IMO
