It feels to me like he is looking past Clottey. This scares me a bit because Clottey is going to be ready and willing to make a huge statement and Cotto will need to bring his a game to beat him.

    Looking past Clottey could be a huge mistake. What are your thoughts?
    its possible that arum is using pac as a distraction for cotto so that clottey can beat cotto. that's all conspiracy bulllshi!t so don't take it seriously.

      There's an interview posted where he states the focus right now is with Clottey and Clottey alone. He merely said if the Pacquiao fight presents itself after then they'll see what's up. But I think the media blow it up out bigger than what it might really be right now.

          I think people's opinions will change after next month on Cotto being a "shot" or "damaged" fighter.

            Fighters Like Hearns, Holyfield, Darchinyan..I could go on and on, can not only come back after a devastating loss, but come back better.

            It all depends on the mindset. Cotto truly believes he was cheated against, so that fight will have no psychological bearing with him at all. The physical beatings heal, it is the phychological ones that some fighters cannot get past.

                  His reflexes were gone. Age and abuse he did to himself brought Roy down. Roy was always a pure reflex and speed orientated fighter. Once that went, his big edge he once had over everyone was gone. He was suddenly very human and did not have the normal boxing fundamentals that he never needed to learn before.
