    Do you seriously think Clottey is going to stop because he was hit by Cotto??? Come on man, you're not being realistic if you seriuosly think that...If anything it will make Clottey fight focus on his task...I've never seen Clottey shut down because he's been hit...Thats a bogus claim if you trying to imply that.

      first of all i gave credit to clottey and said his defense is solid. i never said cotto would just break thru clotty easy. as for you bringing up marg, you said the same way cotto was gona break thru marg's right, and i said its impossible to break thru marg's head cuz thats margs defense. he blocks punches with his head. there's no way a man can put a fist thru another mans head. i was just referring to clotteys tight guard, cotto will not break thru easy.

          i didn't say he was going to just stop ; just make him think twice.

          head shots vs body shots is a whole different thing, he has a good chin yeah but anybodys body can break them down if ****** on enough.

            You point is moot when Shane knocked Margorito out...I brought up Margorito because a lot of Cotto fans said that he was going to KO Margorito...We all saw what happen. Its a very interesting point to bring up because Clottey is one tought son of a ***** and to say Cotto will break his defense is rather pushing it given that a limited fighter in Margorito was able to take away Cotto's main weapon (body punches) If the limited fighter was able to do that to Cotto what does a guy that knows how to work his defense to gain advantage would do???...Not saying that Clottey will repicate what Margorito did but I'm pretty sure Clottey has watched the Margorito fight and came up with a game plan on captalizing on Cotto weaknesses.

                lol, the only reason Margarito took away Cotto's body punches is cause his elbows were always down there most of the time leaving his head while open cause of his chin.

                  The same body attack that was suppose to bring down Margorito...I bring up this because Margorito has absolutely no defense and he was able to negate Cotto's body attack...So a guy that is known for his defense will let Cotto **** him to the body???? Dont think so.

                      im thinking you misunderstanding what some fans said during that time..

                      im pretty sure the reasonable ones knew that KO was never going to come from headshots, but from body shots..

                      i expected Cotto to pull a decision cause of how tough Marg was,not KO
