      im a fan of Clottey, but he's not like Paul Williams in that fighters are avoiding him because of his style.
      he's tough, has shown good boxing ability, and has good defense.

      even though he easily whooped Judah, i questioned his power.

      Cotto's chin is not in question...he can take some punishment.

      does Clottey have what it takes to knock out a guy who can take as much as he can dish, or does Cotto simply outboxed a fighter who has yet to prove he belongs with the elite?

            Did you even watch the fight between Clottey/Margarito. Clottey was
            giving Margarito fits and took his best shots. I don't know what fight
            some of you were watching but I didn't see Judah give Clottey a problem
            in NO way. Clottey had Judah hurt in the 7th and made him quit.
            That wasn't no head butt that caused that cut over his eye. Clottey
            beat Zab into submission and had him lie about not being able to see
            out of his eye when clearly it was wide open. If Clottey can pressure
            Cotto and take his punch away then Cotto loses.

                clottey is under-estimated. i still give a slight advantage to cotto no doubt, but alot of guys here think that cotto is just gonna run him over and KO him in the first couple rounds.
                i think clottey is gonna give him a little more fight than what most people think.......
                maybe even a W..........

                  Dude wake up. You're dreaming.. All the people in here think cotto has no chin, as i recall when he got hurt by Corley it wasn't a punch on the chin it on the temple on top of the head, so i don't know why all you people say cotto chin this and that. His chin is fine and clottey does not have the power to even knock cotto down. Cotto hits harder than plasterito let see how much punishment he'll take from cotto.

I think Clottey's defense will fustrate Cotto and I don't think Cotto is at his best when he is fustrated.
                    Why is everybody in here think clottey can't be hurt? That's exactly what everyone thought on plasterito and look what happen to him against mosley. Cotto can hurt him and he could hurt bad.

                      I usually respect Freddie Roach's opinion, but he's way off on this one.

                      He has a great boxing mind, but this time he's wrong.

                      Cotto's gonna outclass Clottey.

                      Joshua's a good fighter, but Cotto's an elite boxer.
