Miguel Cotto vs. Joshua Clottey: Anyone think it's possible? Who'd win?

[adrsan84]

Cotto's accurate punching and speed beats Clottey IMO. Clottey's best tool is his defense, but he'd have to be more on the offensive with Cotto to rack up points.

Cotto more likely by UD

I agree with this assesment, his style is more suitable for Margarito. Cotto can find the way to outbox him and Clottey does not have the workrate or the late fight conditioning to wear down Cotto. I would pick Cotto by UD in this one. Clottey's best shot is to somewhow get back in with Tony, but still his workrate and late fight conditioning make me doubt that he can beat an elite.

I don't know because I think Clottey is stronger and takes a better punch than Cotto. It would be a great fight, I hope it happens.

Clottey's hella ripped though. I don't think he'll be able to hurt Cotto though. I think Cotto will get to him by the 8th or 10th round.

Are you saying Cotto will KO Clottey by the 8th or 10th round?

[krispy kreme]

Cotto could win by UD or SD, Clottey has too limited a work rate. Cotto is strong enough to take whatever Clottey can throw, but he should watch the lunging right hand. It would be close though.

Clottey all day!!

Besides Margarito, Clottey is the strongest at 147.Clottey is very underated.His defence is Winky-ish,he has solid boxing skills and hes tougher than Cotto.Cotto can dish it out,but he cant take that return fire.Clottey takes him in a 12 round UD.

I say Clottey by Ko...Clottey was beating Margarito up bad in the early rounds before he hurt his hand. I don't think Cotto could take any of those shots. Cotto may be faster but Judah was faster than Clottey and we saw what happened to him...that boy would have been koed if he didn't fake that he couldn't see

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Cotto by UD, It could end up being like Cotto vs Ndou. I like Clottey but you need lots of offense to beat Cotto and Clottey is more defensive minded!!!!

[Derranged]

Clottey got this, too strong for Cotto.

[xxjace]

It would be a very good fight.I think Cotto would win a decision on his workrate...

[lefthook2daliva]

cotto wins a ud on workrate..clottey doesnt have the workrate like margo to beat cotto down
