    Joshua Clottey is a quiet, pleasant guy and a tough, technically skilled fighter.

    He is actually very UNDERRATED.
    I agree with you all WW stay away from Clottey. You never anyone mention his name.

      well, i think the consensus is that he's dangerous but not the best... i dont think that's overrating him.

        Let’s examine his best win
        Zab Judah. For a guy who weighs near 170 come fight night it’s quite pathetic that he was unable to KO much smaller Zab Judah. Kostya Mayweather and even Cotto all beat the fresher Judah better than Clotty did.

        What is Clottey advantage? Maybe his size, he is not a great boxer. I could see Carlos Q even outpointing this chin but he does have a questionable chin. He would not have a size advantage over the Punisher.

        hat about Clottey’s heart. This guy reminds me the lion from the wizard of lion. All bark no bite. He was beating Margarito until he bruised his knuckles and stopped throwing. Mayweather fought with a injured shoulder against Castillo. What about his hand against Hernandez he continued throwing. Herans broke his right hand against Hagler and continued throwing.

        Joshua Clottey has won a vacant title against Judah. He lost to Margarito but yet people call him one of the best WW.


        1 Mosley
        2 Williams
        3 Margarito
        4 Cotto
        5 Carlos Q
        6 Berto
        7 Clottey
        This is ******ed. Also, please note that you can't be very overrated if you're not rated very high in the first place.

          The most overrated boxer is Williams. I swear there is a thread earlier today about how no-one can challenege Williams from 147-160. Ri-****ing-diculous.

                  Clottey is no different than any other fight on this website. Overrated by some under rated by others.

                  He is pretty good and has some positive aspects to his game (good offence, good defense, nice sharp punches, never seen him really hurt from a punch) but he has some very glaring flaws that I doubt would allow him to beat most top shelf fighters (like he fades, when he fades he becomes sloppy, he is poor at switching from defense to offence so if he can be forced into defense he has a very hard time getting off).

                      You my friend are delusional.

                      PBF is an ATG and everybody in there right mind agrees. I can see Mosley, Pwill, Cotto ahead of Clottey. After the Margo cheater fact, Carlos Q getting KTFO in 1 round to PWill and getting KO vs Cotto in 5, Berto contreversal win vs Collazo he should be at 4.
