Cotto vs Clottey in March?

[borikua]

Yesterday there was an article about this in endi.com

That article says nothing about Clottey. It just says Cotto has a mandatory with a Mr. Nobody coming up, and the WBA is trying to figure out what their options are because it is clear nobody is talking about a no-money fight between Cotto and the unknown frenchman.

I dunno. I think a few fighters could possibly beat him, but he could also beat them. I dont think anyone will deffinately beat him. I thought Mosley has a very good chance of winning, althogh I thought and believed Cotto would win, Mosley has a good chance. Margarito has a chance with his power shots, Mayweather has a chance by running all night, Hatton has a chance by hugging/clinching and frustrating Cotto, Cintron has a shot with his good power. Althogh I think Cotto beats all of the above, they all have a chance, but I wouldnt pick any of them over Cotto.

Basically you think Cotto in unbeatable, but any competition has a chance but isn't very likely to beat him, correct?

Clottey hits like a mack truck?

yes.. had u seen him fight? ever? honestly..
if your questioning me then u obviously havent seen the hitter fight..
who the **** wants to fight clottey? NO1..
i doubt cotto will fight him unless he has to.
look at his ****in jabs and hooks to the body man.. i suggest u watch one of his fights..

Cotto deserves a bigger fight than Clottey, IMO. I'd pick Cotto to win a hard fought decision but I'd like to see him square of against DLH or Hatton (when he beats Mayweather) instead.

Want to bet your points on that?

Yes. All the points I have on the Dec 8th will go to you if Floyd wins. What do i get if Hatton wins? i see you'll have nothing left if you lose your bets.

yes i haven seen him fight, and no the guy doesnt hit like a mack truck at all.

I haven seen:

Clottey vs Carlos Baldomir, Baldomir won becase Clottey kept punching with his head bt Clottey was deffinately winning that fight. That fight suked anyway.

Clottey vs Richard Gutierrez, good fight. I actually thought Gutierrez deserved the nod but it could have gone either way.

Clottey vs Margarito, Clottey was doing very well until he hurt his hand.

Clottey vs Diego Corrales, Clottey did very well but this was after Corrales wars with Castillo and jumping from 135 to 147.

Clottey vs Felix Flores, not a very impressive performance.

Out of all them fights, Clottey lost 2, and didnt score 1 KO. For a guy who hits like a MACK TRUCK as you say, youd think he would have KO one of them. Especially Flores, who was KOd by DeMarcus Corley in one round at 140.

I have heard RUMORS, i repeat..RUMORS, that Miguel Cotto and Joshua Clottey may fight this coming March in either Puerto Rico or Atlantic City. My cousin said he heard it on the radio in PR. This would be a good fight but I think Cotto takes it. Clottey needs to get by his next fight tho which is against undefeated Shamone Alvarez first.

This is only leaves me one question. Cotto has a mandatory fight against Frederick Klose and from what I heard the fight needed to be signed by some time next month. Will Cotto vacate the title? Or is another mandatory being paid off? Or is Cotto-Clottey just a untrue rumor? I have no idea.

Id hate to see Cotto vacate the title, but Cotto-Clottey is a much better match than Cotto-Klose. *** mandatories! Clottey should be his dam mandatory anyway instead of some guy named Klose/

how can you say **** mandatory, ok samotimes they are in the way of big fights, but they fought they way the ranks up and deserve the title shot

Basically you think Cotto in unbeatable, but any competition has a chance but isn't very likely to beat him, correct?

basically, but im not saying hes unbeatable. Everyone is beatable. He will likely lose at some point, especally if he sticks to tough comp. I think Cotto could beat any of the top guys right now tho, yes. I believe he is the cream of the crop at 147.

where are you trying to go with this?
