Clottey to answer your questions!

Hey guys, I've recently had the opportunity to talk to Joshua Clottey on a regular basis through Facebook. I added him through a trainers friend. He seems very honest and a very nice guy. We talked about a potential Cotto fight and he said that his manager is talking with Cotto's people and that he would love the fight to happen in June. I spoke to him about how he needs to make more noise in the boxing world and that he needs to make himself noticed outside of the ring aswell. He said this was a good idea and I said how I'm a member here and if he wanted, would be able to gather some questions for him to answer, he thanked me and said it was a good idea. I can't really prove it to you guys, but I've had confirmation that it is him and have spoken to him on the phone. Believe if you do, or don't :boxing: Here is our latest conversation: 10:15pmMatt hey Joshua how're you? 10:15pmJoshua am fine and u 10:15pmMatt good thanks you enjoy the cotto fight then??? you want the fight? 10:16pmJoshua ok thanks very much 10:16pmMatt It would be a great fight for you, a win would certainly put you into the spotlight and the p4p rankings 10:17pmJoshua u right am praying it happens 10:17pmMatt would you prefer him over Berto or Mosely? 10:18pmMatt I can see you beating Berto and Mosely well 10:19pmJoshua i want shane then any of them but if cotto come on why not 10:19pmMatt nice! don't you think you need to make a big more noise about what you want???

clottey do you see yourself with arum by the end of this year? do you still consider a fight with paul williams...even if it means moving up in weight? seems like african's might be taking a rise soon in boxing with you and ali fuenka who by dispite his loss i think he showed he can be a threat in the lightweight division....what are your opnion's on that? what are the factors you think are of you not getting any fights? is it management, fighter not wanting to fighting you, or something else? who will win between a lion and jousha clottely (lol don't ask him that) and the most important question of all can i tek yo pounches?

You and Cotto are both wit Top Rank. Why don't you demand to Arum that he puts together a fight between you 2?

i think ur lying saying that he can beat mosley, maybe berto but mosley c'mon. hahaha I was being nice, he has got a chance though Did you think that Margarito has plaster in his hands during your fight? Would you fight Margarito in Mexico to avenge your loss? Are you really that good at soccer? Why do you believe you are not a popular fighter as you should be? Your dream fight with be with? Your top 10 P4p ratings? Where do you rank PBF in your ATG ranking? What would you change in boxing if you could change it? good q's!

He should fight more often at this level of competition, the guys great talent. Ask him what keeps him off the hook? poor Manager? bad promoter? etc... thanks. :boxing:

I'll be sure to ask about Nelson, i've been planning to ask him about Quartey too! You don't think Clotteys hand speed and tight defence could be tough for cotto? Cotto is my favourite fighter so you know lol :boxing:

Hes a good fighter who makes the best out of the basics of boxing but Cotto would stop him IMO.

Jesus, Arum is so ****ing useless. He's the one that should be making Clotteys name known, arranging events, meetings, signings, whatever. Ask Joshua, if he ever speaks with Azumah Nelson ... if so what is Nelson doing these days? Cheers bro.
