Post Mayweather Wins Tough Decision over Cotto
on: May 6, 2012, 10:34
Quote

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. found himself in his toughest fight in years, but the undefeated superstar once again found a way to win. Mayweather took home the decision win with two scores of 117-111 and one score of 118-110. As usual, Floyd's speed and accuracy were on display, and he was able to turn it on late to pull out the win.

    Mayweather raked in at least $32 million for the fight. He now has just a few weeks away from spending the next three months in jail. Floyd is serving a three month sentence on domestic abuse charges.

    The looming prison sentence did not seem to bother Mayweather. After the win he praised Cotto as the toughest fighter he had ever faced. The two fought a close fight, but Floyd pulled away late and had Cotto hurt a few times, particularly in the 12th round. Floyd landed a left uppercut and a flurry that had Cotto in trouble.

    The win will once again raise calls for a match up between Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. The fight has been in demand for years, but Mayweather has thus far resisted. Many view this as the last big super fight remaining in boxing. With the UFC dominating market share in the pay per view fight scene, this may be boxing's last chance to dominate the headlines. It would certainly be a fight to remember.

    Anyone who has had dealings with TK knows that TK does not do things with the subcontractors or employees best interest in mind. They have put several businesses into bankruptcy and others hanging on by a thread. They promise employees certain pay and benefits only to strip them of virtually everything.
