Got all pacs fights right from Diaz onwards big big fan man is unstoppable
He aint knocking Clottey out but dam sure his gonna stop him late thru punishment
Ref a save him and ting...
I had Pac stopping Hatton and also Cotto (although I thought Cotto would also go early) and I dont think he stops Clottey. If he does it will be while Josh is unfazed and on his feet but just not throwing enough back. Good chance that happens.
People keep saying this but when has Clottey faced a guy on or near Pac's level the best guy is Cotto, who was badly disadvantaged by a cut early.
actually he didnt break his hand vs marg he injured it but it wasnt broken
It impeded his ability to continue beating him easily as he was the first few rounds.....OK.
I think that Manny will suffer a cut or two in the fight just as Zab Judah and Cotto did, credit to Clottey's head.
I think that will play a factor in the fight that Clottey will win by stunning everyone with his new tactic, increasing his punch output that used to be low but for this fight, increased and I will be really surprised if Manny wont face the canvas more than once.
I had Manny winning going into the Cotto fight, so much so that some thought I'm a pinoy, lol
I'm just seeing the fight as it is, Manny is not taking down this tough african as he did with the weaker latinos, Clottey by stoppage in later rounds.
War Clottey War
:boxing:
I was thinking the same thing.
But I dunno, I have a feeling the ref will stop it, even if Clottey isn't too, too damaged. If he does that shell shit and just doesn't throw for a round the ref might stop it.
Who's reffing this thing anyways?

Well he also broke his hand in a fight he surely would've won against Margarito. I also feel as though Clottey came very, very close to beating Cotto. If not for that flash KD it could've gone the other way. Clottey is underrated IMO & a sure threat to ANY welterweight in the world including Pac & Floyd.
i have been studying this fight for the last few weeks, i personally see pacaquio winning by a ud its gonna be a lot close than people think because clottey does possess a good right hand and a decent left hook to the body!!
the way to beat pac is with the jab and with seriously good footwork and rule number 1 you have to box and use your legs!!! clottey only has a jab which means he cant win!! but hes got an excellent chin, defense and decent heart, he does fire out some very decent counter punches and has quick hands but he cant cut off the ring and has average footwork but is defense is excellent and is right hand is carries ok power
the way i see this fight is diaz, hatton and cotto all wanted to fight with pacman, clottey aint gonna fight hes gonna box him and hes gonna keep behind that tight defense add in the weight advantage reach and height i see pacman fighting exactly like he did against de la hoya but pot shotting till the mid rounds where he will try and step it up but i think pacs conditiioning at this weight and the added fact hes being hit harder makes him not have a great engine as he had at the lighterweights
i fully see pac winning 9 rounds to 3 but clottey wont make it easy and i will be very surprised if he gets stopped he wont land clean enough to hurt him
I think Pacquiao is stopping Clottey tonight, and I'm calling PEDs or a dive when it happens. :p
The whole monster train wreck thing is getting ridiculous now.
Why did he take his foot of the gas tho? im not Cotto fan at all really but Cotto knocked him down and it was fairly even, Clottey came on strong for a couple of the mid rounds. Then slowed down and gave the judges more then enough reason to award Cotto the win.
He was not clearly winning and had been knocked down i can;t see why he would step of the gas unless he was tired tbh.
I see a stoppage for Pac anyway, maybe im seeing him dismantle Cotto and just overlooking Clottey, but i don't see Clottey with any tools/style which could hurt pac.
Its a mental problem he has not a physical one. He ALWAYS goes into cruise control.

Clottey got tired hes been that way for years.
I don't call men that get in the ring cowards, however compared to the other top fights who rather go out on their back you could probably apply that title to him.
I can give you the Margarito fight because he quit but look what he put himself through against Pacquiao.

the guy has balls.
Please stop putting Cottos name into my mouth man. If you think Clottey gassed in that fight then you are out of your mind. He went into cruise control. Anyways this is about Pacquiao vs Clottey, Cotto fought Pacquiao in November, and we all know the outcome.
Clottey gassed vs. Cotto, Margarito and Guttiriez.
Honestly, thinking about it now.. If Cotto can drop Clottey than Pacquiao could probably hurt him too. It's possible.
Cotto dropped him, but come on, the guy was out of position, everyone acknowledges that, and he never been stunned in his career yet.
:lol1: cmon dude, you ain't no Cotto fan.
There's a difference between constructive criticism and calling a fighter a one dimensional one armed runner. :)
I'm sure you called him a coward in a different thread today.

Clottey was completely off balance and was NOT hurt by the punch against Cotto.
Pacquiao doesn't have a jab like Cotto either.
:thinking:What about the last two rounds of his last pro bout? Don't try to trick us into thinking you like Miguel to look more creditable, when you criticize Miguel. It's like Dana White saying hes a boxing fan when we all know he isn't just so he can trash it later, but still look like he is neutral on the situation. I can see right through it.

Absolutley not. I am a fan of Miguel Cotto, what I say is constructive criticism. I called for him to get stopped because his style is trash when he faces someone with power and stamina.
:lol1: cmon dude, you ain't no Cotto fan.

Sure doesn't sound like a fan.
