I don't particularly miss him, just don't know why we he's only had 1 fight since the Pacquiao snoozefest. And how did he get a fight against Pacquiao coming off of a loss to Cotto anyway?

What happened to Joshua Clottey?

He faded into obscurity.
It was bound to happen. He lost all of his big fights & Arum doesnt give a **** about him.

Like many fighters, he took a break after receiving his first (and probably last) massive payday. His original comeback was cancelled when he fell and broke his wrist while jogging, and as mentioned above, implying to the African press that the Pacquiao fight was fixed probably didn't make his promoter too happy with him.
Right now he's sitting on his ass waiting for a big fight, but it isn't going to come unless he stays active and fights a few more fights for peanuts. Kell Brook recently mentioned him as a possible opponent to make it sound like he was chasing high-level opponents, but it was all complete bull****.

The champions at 154 wont fight him unless they have to. Personally I'd be interested to see Canelo-Clottey, but the GBP/TR feud would prevent that. There is no reason for any name fighter to face him until he has climbed his way back up the rankings.
