      I just checked the ESPN rankings and Dan Rafael has Judah above clottey in the WW rankings. I think it is giving me some false hope

          Perhaps the best thing you can say about Clottey's resume is he went 12 with Margarito and actually won a few rounds on the cards...Which may mean he has more than enough to handle Judah...But, it's not saying a ton either.

          Margarito's upset win seemed to make this fight even bigger now. I think Margarito fights the winner unless he waits for Mosley. Is their any buzz in Las Vegas for this yet?

            I think the term "styles make fights" really applies here. Clottey took Margarito to a decision with Marg's throwing the most punches in one fight of all time, against Judah he has a strong and slick boxer that mostly relies on setting traps and counter punching.

            Zab is going to lose though, because he is one dimensional and does not make adjustments. I don't think much of Clottey, but Judah is still riding the hype train pre-Baldomir.

              Clottey's also a pretty good body puncher as well.


              which should bode well down the stretch, as Judah's poor stamina will play a factor in the outcome.

                Looking back on the fight he could have beaten Clottey by throwing flurries and getting out. He really stayed within Clottey's range for too long and he was punished by shooting right hands.
