Did anyone see the Cotto vs Pacquiao fight?

If you didn't here is the basics caution SPOILER

first couple of rounds, actual viable boxing match where Cotto and Pacquiao were in a somewhat even match, though Pacquiao was getting the better of it.

Next couple of rounds, Cotto was basically a moving punching bag for Pacquiao

Last round, same as the other rounds, except the ref stupidly stopped the fight instead of giving Cotto the dignaty of going the full 12 rounds. Real shame that Cotto has that KO on his record now, because he should of been allowed to go the full 12 rounds.

All the props in the world to the top pound for pound boxer in the world.

I watched it and I think it was worth waking up at 4 am to watch it (I also like watching the undercard fights; props to Rowland for his endurance against JC jr.).
I don't blame the ref for stopping the fight either. Sure, Cotto was enthusiastically back-pedaling, but he must show some fighting back or the ref will just call it. How does one fight someone with the speed and talent of Manny? Pacquio vs Mayweather will be one for the history books.
