    Once again happy to see Cotto fighting the best out there. Clottey being the dark horse of the WW division is no pushover by any means. This will be a great fight and will unify the WBO and IBF titles. Can't wait. It'd be great should Cotto beat Clottey to fight and beat another titleholder in November (Berto or Mosley) thus winning and unifying 3 separate alphabet trinkets all in 2009. Can't wait.

      There's no guarantee that this will be a unification fight, Clottey may be forced to drop his belt because I think Clottey was due to make a mandatory defense.

              I think it will be BS if they strip Clottey for fighting Cotto. i mean he hasnt fought in a while, and they dont strip him, but when a unification fight comes along they will strip him, for a ****** mandatory? WTF?

              Do you think theyll pass to have a chance of having Cotto as their champion, for some uknown fighter? They wont collect as much as with Cotto!!!!!!!!

                No problem.

                Clottey was supposed to fight Cintron who decided to move up to fight Martinez instead, then he was supposed to fight Hlatshwayo, I don't know why that fight wasn't made but it doesn't matter, I'm glad he's getting his big shot now.

                The IBF did the same thing to Margarito when he wanted to fight Cotto, Margarito had to drop the belt to get the fight.

                    Clottey was supposed to fight number 3 ranked Hlastshwayo as a mandatory defense, the fight on ESPN tomorrow between Shamone Alvarez and Delvin Rodriguez should be for the number 1 spot. If Clottey is forced to vacate then the winner of that fight should fight Hlatshwayo for the title.....I think.

                      But that was different tho.Because Clottey was Cintrons mandatory and they gave Cintron a pass to fight Margo and the winner would of faced Clottey wich wasnt the case, so Margo knew he wasnt keeping that title, even before winning it!!!!!
