What have I been saying for the past few days, this fight was going to be a big mismatch and what was it? a mismatch.
It's a shame Clottey didn't throw more or take a risk, I guess he is happy just making it to the final bell. I'm not a hater but I think It's safe to say that Clottey's PPV Main event days are done after tonight..
I think he only opened up because he threw that melon of his like a basketball and had Cotto hurt, that was his only hope.
If that fight ever pops off again without any handicaps, I expect Clottey to get his ass whupped again
I don't think Clottey deserves a big fight again/for a long-long time.
If he were to throw 20-30 more punches in that whole Cotto fight he would have won a UD. He's just scared to throw, it puzzles me.

They are done. He pretty much destroyed his career
How Cotto come ready to fight and throw down, but Clottey did not makes no sense. Seeing as he came ready for Cotto
Even go back to the Margarito fight. It really makes no sense. I got a thought he was throwing the fight as well
If he would go there, mix it up, try to make a fight and get caught and knocked out he wouldn't get bashed because he went in there and gave it his all and he could land another fight with a top WW, but now, he can forget about PPV's and main events..
dude nowdays don't think that even if you lose you can still get another big fight IF you fought till the end....money changes people thinking

Yup agreed. Clottey is shithouse, at least he made some money.
By the way he fought, he doesn't deserve a penny. He came to fight with his guard all night and make it till the final bell. That's not BOXING. That was a pathetic display..
He never seriously opened up the WHOLE night.. he was scared and it's a shame to the people who paid 60 dollars to watch a boxing fight.
$49.95 only and 51K in attendance :D
i was talking bout clottely vs cotto....clottely fought better and threw punches...in this fight he was scared to throw. had pac on the rope and aint do shit. like i said he was there for a check not to win

I hate to say it cus I really like Clottey as a person, but he can no longer be considered an elite welterweight. Hell, Berto could have put on the same performance Pacquiao did tonight. Barely any punches from Clottey. Why didn't he at least try? That was basically the welterweight version of Kevin Johnson vs Vitali.
Lame for PPV. Whole card was lame for PPV. No drama whatsoever.
When I said Andre Berto would win a UD over Clottey they laughed..
Not to kick a man while hes down but after tonight, Clottey will never be on PPV/Main events again.
Bullshit...Cotto went to war for the first 3-4 rounds and Pac beat him into submission...Clottey never seemed interested in winning the fight...

Berto doesnt have the power Pac has and his chin is still questionable IMO..Clottey would pressure him and kill him with power..
Clottey disgraced himself with this performance.
BTW Wheres the 400k.
I predicted a 9th round tko win for Pacquiao because I assumed between round 7-9 Clottey would open up a bit and Pacquiao would catch him with his speed but Clottey figured out he wasn't going to win so he might as well go to a decision(something Cotto/Hatton haven't been able to do and it would look good on paper). Big shame...
he fought WAY better vs cotto
he was just acting scared of manny....clottely could had thrown more punches he didn't want to
