Everytime I think about this guy Clottey being paraded as a top flight opponent for Manny P I laugh even harder. Manny would get more props for beating the former WW champion Baldomir like Floyd did. Haters tried to give Floyd a hard time for fighting Baldomir for the linear WW title. But Baldomir has more ring accomplishments than Clottey & a victory over Clottey. Everytime Clottey has fought elevated competition he has lost. Everytime there is an excuse.
Baldomir: He was winning but got DQ'd for cheating
Margarito: He would have won but he hurt his hand.
Cotto: He won but he got robbed.
What will be his excuse for Pac? And will Pac be the biggest joke ever if he actually lost to this guy?
1. mosley
2. pacquiao
3. mayweather
4. cotto
5. clottey
that's how it stands right now.
mosley at the time was locked in a fight with berto.
he just beat cotto.
mayweather couldn't get done.
clottey was next in line.
yupppppppppp
Floyd also be Judah & Corrales. Better versions If I may add.
Is Floyd world class? Those are considered big wins for him. Corrales is his biggest win even according to some. If that's his biggest win, and Colottey whooped on him too, how is he also not world class?
He's certainly better than Clottey, but Clottey is damn good and a top WW. Stop being antagonistic for the sake of it.
Clottey should've beaten Baldomir, but he choked it away. Same thing against Cotto. Knowing him, he'll probably do it again against Manny.
He did manage to find a bigger choker than him when he fought Judah.
The thing is, doesn't boxrec show the score before the stoppage?
I mean unless Hater can't understand that Baldomir was down pretty big.
I mean if you are gonna boxrec, there's really like a line or two to read.
He's probably illiterate.
In all seriousness, Clottey whipped on Baldomir more than anyone has since. He absolutely hammered him from pillar to post. I honestly thought that was going to be stopped at times when Baldomir was getting blasted around.
A real pity that he got DQ'd, especially as it was as much the fault of Baldomir as it was Clottey.
Anyway, TS is a douche. Obviously hasn't seen the fight. As Pink pointed out, it's like saying Roy Jones lost to Montell Griffin.
sigh....If TS had only watched any of these fights.....:3some:
ok new poster with already red k. Why not explain these fights and what TS needed to know before making this post.
Clottey DID lose to Baldomir, and in legit fashion as well. He was warned about 7 times, and had three points taken away before he was DQ'd. A completely just decision.
And anyone who says Clottey is a top five welter needs to re-evaluate their ranking system.
Mayweather
Pac
Cotto
Mosley
Berto.
Clottey is a GOOD fighter, dont get me wrong. But the dude is coming of a loss and has done nothing in his career to show he is capable of beating world class opp.
sigh....If TS had only watched any of these fights.....:3some:
Look at how many more post I have on this 1 boxing site than you. Look at how much time I spend talking about boxing, passionately debating boxing & reviewing different fighters accomplishments. If you honestly think I have not watched the fights you are an idiot & if I watched the fight or not it doesn't change the fact that Clottey has lost to mostly all the top WWs he ever fought.

LMAO. You are really stupid to take so much time to make a post that has nothing to with this thread. This thread is about Clottey being paraded as a top of the line WW despite the fact he has lost to all the top WWs he ever fought like Baldomir, Margarito, Cotto.
I keep making you feel stupid because you can't argue against facts. Some advice. State some real facts in a debate & you won't look so stupid.
How are you making me feel stupid? You're an idiot for assuming. I never disagreed on anything or claimed Clottey won the fight against Baldomir. You have the same delusional mentality as your idol Floyd. As far as facts, let me see some proof that a majority of boxing writers is discrediting Floyd's accomplishment.

You're so delusional that it's not even worth having a discussion with you. Carry on with your HaterFree ways.
I keep making you feel stupid because you can't argue against facts. Some advice. State some real facts in a debate & you won't look so stupid.
Champions are made in the ring homie not by a sports writer. Pac is a champion because of ring accomplishments not because of some fat a$$ racist sport writers. Majority of the same writers will try every angle to discredit Floyd Mayweathers ring accomplishments but his world titles, record, & PPV records speak volumes.

Lets play a game, who is recently announced the boxer of the decade?

No intelligent facts to state about boxing.
I know you don't, fucking teenage boxrec warrior. But I'll enlighten you. If you actually watch fights instead of googling the results, you might learn something. You see, history only sees official results, not detailed facts.
I suppose you think Casamayor beat Santa Cruz
Griffin beat Roy Jones
Bowe beat Golota
Chavez-Whitaker was a draw
You know, because trusty old boxrec told you so. I hate fakeass fans like you. If you don't know shit, don't say shit.
It must hurt to know yo boy is fighting a guy that his 2 biggest victories came against guys Floyd had already banged. Corrales & Judah.
Lets play a game, who is recently announced the boxer of the decade?
Clottey headbutt were affecting Baldomir. FACT. Clottey lost to Baldomir FACT
Clottey's best win over a shot Judah in which he struggled FACT. He couldn't stop Corrales :lol1:
The haters can't stand it when real fans get on here & state the facts.
Don't talk your bullshit if you haven't watched the fight.
