Koopa, on Cotto vs Clottey

**Doctor_Tenma** · 05-25-2009, 01:00 PM

The guy picked Clottey, thought it'd be an interesting watch, since hardly anyone is giving Clottey a chance.

I'm backing Clottey too.

I think he's a great fighter, good defense, great boxer and WILL be trouble for Cotto.

I can't really see either getting KOed, I'm going with Clottey on a close UD or SD.

It is an interesting fight for sure. I favor Cotto, but as Koopa says, it will highly depend on how much success Cotto has to Clottey's body.

If Cotto does not have much success to the body, the fight suddenly becomes about even to me as Clottey's face may open up a bit as he protects his body.

Cotto on the other hand will have to be mindful of Clottey's shots even if they do not have the power of Margarito because Cotto does cut and Clottey will take advantage of the fact for sure.

while his analysis of the fight itself is true, this guy is seriously downplaying PR Parade day.

Also, cotto != tyson. tyson had incredible head movement in his prime. after prison, tyson's head was too stationary, same as miguel's. miguel has never had that kind of head movement / defense.

all in all, I think the fight will be a tough one for cotto, one that cotto barely escapes with a W; but he will escape with the W. it is PR parade day after all

also the fall out from his feud w/ his uncle may effect cotto worst than is expected.

cotto should win this one, but barely by the skin of his tooth.

This guy really doesn't give that good of an analysis.

And I don't get why people are saying nobody is giving Clottey a chance....I've seen a ton of people taking Clottey.
