Big props to Cotto for coming out in the 12th when his corner wanted to throw in the towel - he showed a lot of heart.

As much as I agree with you about Cotto coming out on the 12th, the fight should have been ended around Round 9 by the trainer ... From Round 9 and on, he was just getting killed and that was pretty useless to send him in especially since he had no chance to win and even though there is pride involved, the trainer's responsibility is to the health and safety of the fighter and being Joe "Dumbass" Santiago, he let his fighter go back in even though everyone knew that was the wrong move ... You can see how Pac was already letting up and wasn't really doing much cause even he knew that it was wrong to kick a guy when he's down ... I have the match in the PVR and watching Cotto get pummeled in the later rounds were actually not very nice cause he is a great fighter and he doesn't need to be done up like this ... but if that was Mayweather on the other hand, I'd propose the rounds go to 30 and Pac can beat on him all the live long day ... and I will enjoy that ...
