I can't see him knocking out Clottey in the early rounds b/c Clottey has those large forearms that he uses as earmuffs to block his face and body.. and I can't see Zab fighting 12 consistent rounds and winning a decision. Anyone have any thoughts? I'd like to have a clue how Zab can win so I can root for it.
    Can you explain to me why you would bet on a fighter when you can't think of one way in which Zab can win the fight?

      Without breaking down the fight, it is clear that Judah has been in with the better quality of competition. Other than Margarito, who has Clottey fought? Baldomir cross cancels since they both fought him. Zab has been in the ring with Mayweather, Tszyu, Cotto, Spinks. It's Clottey who is stepping up in class. He's made a lot of fans, but I remember him being all out to beat so-so Richard Gutierrez before. This is an intruiging matchup.

        Cause I want to see Zab win and I want to put money on the fight and I don't want to root against my money. I was actually going to put the cash on Clottey cause that would more likely get me cash but.. That's no fun. i want to see Zab stop sucking. Yeah I can't imagine Zab outboxing Clottey for 12 rounds. He needs to really fight a great fight to do this. Maybe he won't fade this time..

              he hurt cotto and cotto still came back full strength through Zab's fade in the last rounds. Clottey's defense is tougher than Cotto's so its hard to imagine him getting particularly hurt. He'd really have hurt him for 3 straight rounds..
