Man, Trella's R4 looks hella funky
Also, its interesting that Miller gave Clottey R12. I mean, you have to score each round individually, he basically handed Clottey the fight on his card based on that round.

There's a Miller in there?

I’m still trying to figure out how the first two card scored the second round for Cotto.

I think it’s interesting that for all the abuse Trella got for the 116-111 score, he was the only judge to give Clottey the 2nd.

The Round 4 scoring was interesting
Miller was the only judge to make a decision and go with it while the other two judges flipped. Wonder what changed their mind.
Probably sitting close enough to Lampley to hear him call it an obvious Cotto round
Maybe not, but it’s possible. One of the judges is on the same side as the announcers.

I like Lampley for the most part, but he was so in love with Cotto during that fight I couldn’t take him seriously. It was absurd. He’s done shit like that before, but I thought this one really took the cake.

Somehow, he and Manny balanced each other
Listening to Manny, you would have thought that Clottey won a shutout, other than the KD.

Actually not
but these judges are probably listening to the announcers more than actually paying attention to the fight
