    Whats up with Clottey?

    What is going on with Joshua Clottey? I know he is the mandatory for the IBF title and he was suppose to fight Cintron. Since Cintron was KO and Margorito set to fight Cotto...what's next for Clottey??

    Is he going to have a tune-up and fight the winner of Cotto\Margoriot or what??? Somebody PLEASE help me out here!!

      GL: When will Margarito vacate the IBF title officially?

      The Bobfather: When the IBF tells us to. In other words, when it is clear under the agreement we have under the IBF. Once Margarito signs to fight Cotto, and not to fight Clottey, the title is vacated and Clottey will fight for the vacant title. That's not all bad because Clottey, I think, beats any other welterweight out there. If he steps up to the plate as a viable opponent for Cotto or Margarito, whoever wins in July.

      GL: Will you look to put Clottey's title fight on the same show with Cotto and Margarito.

      The Bobfather: I don't know that we'd do that. There's plenty of places for us to put a Clottey fight.

      GL: I only asked because depending on who he's fighting, it might be able to go on the undercard.

      The Bobfather: I've got a Boxing After Dark date in September, so we'll see

        Arum's gonna have to come up with some step aside money because Clottey's been waiting for his shot at the title.

          Thanks for that....It looks like Clottey will finally get his shot again. Hopefully his hands can hold up so he can put himself in the picture.

              Looks like it'll be Berto or Collazo since everyone else ranked is busy with other stuff.

                  No he doesn't because Margarito will vacate to fight Cotto, so Clottey will fight for the vacant title, probably against Luis Collazo.
