    [QUOTE=mickyward5656;4804239]its true that in Cotto's fight with Margarito, he ran out of gas after getting hit with bricks. But in several of Clotteys fights he has shown a lack of stamina. I see this being a key factor in this fight. also it has been a while since Clottey has been in the ring. My question is how long can clottey stay active before he goes into that shell mode?[/QUOTE]

    it won't take long...just one left body hook

      Cotto hits too hard for mortals to deal with.

      Clottey isn't Highlander.

      So I see Cotto doing away with him late in the fight.

      I say 9th or 10th round KO.

        just saw clottey vs corrales, very good fight for clottey. i think cotto is not going to do the same thing corrales did. clottey is a very good boxer but cotto has a lot of holes to pound the body like corrales did. i'll say UD for cotto probably late late TKO.

              I really like Clottey, but his punch output isn't enough to give Cotto any serious problems. Clottey's a stationary fighter and Cotto will move around him and select his shots. Clottey's a good defender also so it may take a few rounds for Cotto to find him. But once he does, he takes Clottey into deep waters.

              Im leaning towards a Cotto decision, but not counting out a stoppage. Don't forget, this will be Clottey's toughest fight to date. Not too sure the same can be said for Cotto, but he'll prepare like it is.

                  You pulled this idea from where?

                  (You have seen Miguels KO percentage right?)

                    I see Cotto being very agressive in rounds 2-6, Clottey won't even feel his power and would probably mock him the way he was mocking Judah, Clottey would not get hit very often and counter Cotto a lot, I think he would counter Cotto better than anybody has ever done. Cotto will start to look like a defeated man sort of like in the Margarito fight, although I don't think he will be as hurt, then I think Cotto might do a little late ralley in the last two rounds, Then the Judges would score it a Split Decision win to Clottey. I just think Clottey is the bigger, tougher, more durable guy with better defense. I really hope this fight wins, I have to no doubts Joshua Clottey would win even if the fight doesn't happen the way I predict.
