Clean up the Corner Chaos
“Good first step on the road back for Cotto. His face held up. Seemed more confident with Manny in the corner. Cotto is still a force to be reconed with. A match with the slick Martinez would be interesting at 154. Foreman was brave. Mercante did his dad proud by taking over the white towel thing. Boxing has to do something about these wet corners. They should but down a big old drip pan under the stool between rounds then take it out and dump it.
Too many fighters are slipping in the corners on the wet canvas and logos. What about that orange stuff they used to throw on the floor in grammar school when sombody puked. Oil dry? The Dirrell-AA fight was a victim of the wet corner. Stop the wetness!”
