Javier Fortuna-Abner Cotto

[tomek0412]

Any thoughts ?

I think Cotto could pull this off via decision, if he doesn't get in trouble early. Fortuna seems to lose power and fade as the fight goes along. I was really disappointed with his last fight.

Fortuna KOs Cotto

Fortuna regressing IMO.... sucks because he is an all-action puncher... Used to stalk and wait a little before going crazy and wild... all out... He started this 1st round all out and was pushing shots after a little more than a minute.

But how about that REF!!! :shock: That wasn't a KD!!! that was a blatant foul with not one but two shots behind the head!!! lol and he takes a Pt away after counting Fortuna... What a joke

Lots of consecutive bad calls by the ref escalated to fighters trying to make the law by themselves, both throwing low blows...

How about Fortuna swinging and missing Cotto after the bell and his corner telling him to go down which he does 2 seconds after the missed shot... :? terrible...

Cotto was a complete clown in this fight. He blatantly hits Fortuna twice in the back of the head, repeated low blows, attempted to pull off an Andre Dirrell after being missed by a shot after the bell, then gets KOed.

Fortuna, on the other hand, reminds me quite a bit of Zab Judah. He'll go only so far.

I enjoyed the circus of a fight though.

Fun and farcical while it lasted,Cotto looked like he was shellshocked by Fortuna's fast start and i thought the persistant low blows were him loking for a way out

The ref made a few ballz up's,crediting Abner with a KD when the 2 punches clearly landed behind the head,then he failed to deduct a point from Cotto for persistent low blows and then Cotto's antics after Javier glanced his whiskers at the end of the round

Cotto was terrible and fought dirty. Never wanna see that clown on TV again.

Hopefully something like Fortuna/Vargas is next.

Am I the only one who thought the ref was SHOUTING instructions waaaay too loud?

The worse officiating I've ever seen in a fight. Fortuna can punch but he is wild and will get exposed by someone who can time him or set traps while walking his wild swinging, exposed chin into a vicious counter shot.

Cotto was dirty, ref lame, how can you deduct point for hitting behind the head and rule the foul(punch) landed behind the head be ruled as knockdown.
Then when Fortuna threw punch after bell but missed punch and Cotto' corner man pointed to the canvas and Cotto fell down that sh1t was funny as hell.

It was downright pathetic, his Trainer is the one who told him to go down and he did and then the penalty was assessed. This had to be the worse officiated fight I have ever seen.

I did notice the ref very early in this fight and thats never a good thing
