I doubt clottey a gives a shiyat what people thinks, he probably bought a new bentley

I paid about $4 for the fight and wasn't bored by it, so I do not care.

That performance really cost him for future fights, though.

Can't blame him for wanting his family to eat better but he wouldve gotten more respect if he went out swinging

I'm tired of the "please the fans" lingo. I mean, how many fans will help a retired boxer, a Gatti type (RIP) who will have mental issues or even poor Castillo who has had too many wars? Almost ANYONE will. The "fans" want bloodbaths sort to speak, most don't really give a damn about their beloved fighters. Look at Pacquiao, p4p #1 (i never said it), the "fighter of the decade" (that's just stupid if you actually know what is a decade) and the winner of any poll on boxing scene's last ppv sold 650k. That's fans for you 101. Basically he didnt put on a ashow, there are many defensive fighters who put on a show, watching floyd fight is amazing, great skills and talent. Clottey just did what kevin johnson did vs vitali

Clottey did well i think he didn't quit or get ktfo. Also compubox had him throwing 400 punches, but I didn't really see that many, but of course i was not counting.

good point, but he didnt please the fans I'm tired of the "please the fans" lingo.

Clottye came to thr ring to survive. If/When pacquiao fights marg/valero, bith these guys will come to fight and have a real brawl.These are dangerous fights for pacquiao, bith have speed and power, they would be great fights if they were to happen

I know alot of people are down on him for not doing more in the fight. I don't really care one way or the other but I do believe he trained to somehow win and he did the best he could. He was just outgunned. It seems to me that in how he fought fans do not give enough credit to Manny Pacquiao for forcing him into that shell. When a fighter can not do anything else, he must do what he can, and in Clottey's case, that was survive. It was all Ali could do against Foreman and it paid off for him. But most of the time it doesn't.

Yea but that'll prolly be the last good payday he'll have. He better invest wisely.

i bet he was soooooooo pleased when he found out that jerry jones doubled his pay lol.

$3,000,000 is a lot of money, look his family lives in a hut in ghana. Obviously he just came in for the payday and just didn't wanna look stupid and get ktfo. good point, but he didnt please the fans
