I honestly think this fight will be fought on the inside for 12 rounds and can be a good fight (although many might find extremely boring). I was just watching chico's defeat against clottey and people are seriously underrating clottey's game as an inside fighter. This guy patiently dismantled chico, even though he had a much lesser workrate and at times still making diego look ****y when he takes a breather behind his guard. So if mayweather tried to press and open up or engage in a clinch and hold game, his ass might be in for a treat since his opponent is just as intelligent on the inside game as he is.
Boring 12 round shut out for Floyd!!Clottey has really good skills,but a boxing match isn't a high guard come forward event!!U gotta let ur hands go,or else U will lose,he may be too stupid to have figured that out by now!!Anyway Floyd circles him & does just enough to win every round!!
It would be a VERY boring fight. Clottey has little ability to seamlessly switch between offense and defense, so Floyd would be able to sit at whatever distance he wanted and pick his shots while easily avoiding the shots Clottey would throw in return. I don't think Clottey would be as inactive as he was against Pacquiao, but his style is not one that beats Mayweather.
Totally disagree. Clottey kryptonite are offensive fighters who throw a ton of punches because he gets so defensive. He beat up judah and gave cotto hell because those two we're backing off. Clottey is very underrated around here.
Look at the Corrales, Baldomir, Gutierrez and judah fight. You'll see that they're coming at Clottey and wasting energy while he's just blocking everything and countering with 2 or 3 shots right after they're done throwing.
The only volume punchers he looked bad against were Margario and Pacquiao and that was because they weren't letting him breathe and giving him chances to respond.
Also look at how bad he looked when he was chasing Cotto around while Cotto was running away.
Mayweather moves and throws better counters then Cotto and is far more accurate.
Clottey does good against fighters who can't control themselves. He likes to wait in high guard and catch you while you're throwing.
Mayweather isn't going to do that. He's just going to throw just enough to win the round and move around and Clottey doesn't do good when he's chasing you around the ring, he likes you to come to him.
Honestly this is going to be a one sided fight for Mayweather it's just a bad style-up match but i'm sure Clottey is going to have his moments where he looks good.
I'll buy the PPV just to see both of their unique styles in action and it won't be as broing of a fight as most people think. We'll see plenty of skillful moments from Floyd and quick explosive combinations from Clottey.

I think it'd be a pretty good fight. Clottey is a very accurate fighter and has very underrated speed. He'd give floyd problems because he leaves very little openings for counters.
Clottey by TKO :boxing: To beat Joshua you gotta throw 1.6k punches like Margo,1.2k like Pac. Also you have to go to the body a lot, which is not Floyd's usual stuff.
Probably the dumbest thing I've heard all day.

Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!! That fight would be bizzare! and get 900,00 PPV buys or 1million. If it happened before Pacquiao desposed him. IDK but, all in all fun funny fight LMFAO! Clottey got good defense and would try to headbutt? hahaha I don't know I got Mayweather UD though.
More boring than Pacquiao/Clottey but with alot less punches thrown.
this basically sums it up.......Clottey vs Shane is a good fight....as is Berto vs Clottey or a Cotto rematch at 154.
