    Clottey just doesn't throw enough...Cotto won't stop Clottey, but he'll win a clear decision.
    nah...

    clottey is all wrong for cotto because clottey is big and strong and pressures and has good defense. the only thing is that both dudes gas, so this is actually a very competitive fight.

    berto, on the other hand, is too green and cotto's experience will beat berto easily. if collazo takes berto to the brink, there's no ****in way berto can last 5 rounds with cotto.

      I strongly disagree.

      Clottey doesn't pressure and has a very limited workrate. Guys that don't throw more than Cotto don't give him too much trouble. Styles wise, Cotto is all sorts of wrong for Clottey.

      Reason Clottey was so successful against Tony for like 5 rounds, the performance that's given him his name, was because Tony was coming at him non stop and he was able to counter. He couldn't sustain that pace and gassed.

      Cotto would dictate the pace, and if you let Cotto dictate the pace you're probably going to lose.

          Bertos speed means nothing for Cotto, a rematch with Mosley is good and the fight with Clotey is coming soon but I think Cotto is going after Berto next because is the best fight out there money wise but afeter that fight is Mosley and the Clotey

            If berto isnt ready now, when is he going to be ready? he has a belt and if he is not ready for top caliber guys, he shouldnt have the damn thing.
