Neither Clottey-Judah were impressive what so ever!

    I'd love to see Margarito vs Clottey II. There's no way in hell Marg's walking over Clottey in any fight. He didn't do it in the first fight & I still think a healthy Clottey can eek out a decision against him.

      sure it wasnt margarito v. cotto...and this wasnt the BEST fight to follow up such an action packed fight but it wasnt bad...

      zab has a ton to be proud of...

      as max Kellerman said he stuck in there not just to say he's still fighting but he really showed the heart that he really wanted it and he stuck to the gameplan and didnt melt down...zab (in my opinion) deserves a pat on the back...

      clottey was pretty good defensively (other than protecting against body shots...he took a lot of those) and the lead rights were busting zab up. he definately gets props from me on that...

      i just didnt like how he just put his hands up and walked forward without a jab or remembering to protect from body shots.

      overall they put on a good fight...
      I agree with this, Zab actually continued the improvement in mentality he'd shown against Cotto and Clottey boxed a controlled, tactical performance. I enjoyed the fight and wish it had gone on longer.

        clottey was healthier than margarito(rust+wrist and ankle injury....requiring surgery...) the first time...clottey seriously lacks consistency....

          On the contrary, I was quite impressed by Clottey. He's a very skilled, orthodox fighter with a lot of physical strength and few flaws.

I just think he should fight someone like Berto. Beat him up or beat up another welterweight. Look impressive as hell. And a margarito-clottey fight is then built up and looking hella exciting. You know?
            i can agree with that man.

                I agree with this too. He looks very hard to beat. I'm not certain he quite posseses the attacking threat to beat boxers with a decent workrate who he can't outmuscle. I think for example he'd probably lose to Williams, and he certainly wouldn't beat up Cotto like Margarito did, but everything you say is correct.

                  Maybe, but Marg had those injuries before he got in the ring with him. To get an injury during the course of the fight has to be pretty tough & mentally taxing.
