Be aggressive, attack that body and beware of those combinations, look to counter Clottey before he counters you, and try to make him open himself up, when Clottey opens himself up he is very easy to hit, he swings wild sometimes, beat up that guard he keeps up. Honestly though, I don't think Cotto can beat him.
What should Cotto's game plan be for fighting Clottey?

Clottey's plan is actually easier, Cotto leaves plenty of room to be countered, so counter, frustrate Cotto by showing him that he can't hurt him, I think Cotto has a little weakness for not being able to hurt his opponents. Throw upstairs and then downstairs to the body, Keep that guard up tight so Cotto would even know how to hit him and then wait for those counters. BE VERY CAUTIOUS AT ALL TIMES FOR THOSE BODY PUNCHES! If Margarito who has one of the worst defense for a champion(actually not anymore) can manage to not allow Cotto to go the body then Clottey should be able to do the same. Also put pressure on him, try to keep Cotto on the backfoot as much as possible, although I doubt he will be able to affectively.Comment
