    Clottey will be the end of cotto

    No hate on cotto but, that fight against jennings was a total joke...you can,t think that jennings prepared cotto for clottey or can you???he should have fought someone with a better record or someone who would push him and make him fight to see if there was any ill effects from the margarito fight...we all know cotto is a confident fighter but he should have taken a couple of tune up fights before going after the big fish...i personally think clottey is going to break cotto will because he will see if theres any quit in cotto the first 3 or 4 rds. And then begin to walk cotto down and finish him in 8 rds....just remember clottey was beating the **** out of margarito before he hurt his hand and still was hitting marg with some clean shots while being hurt...and i know that margs chin was something sick back then and he was ripping clottey with some shots as well...i just think the better, stronger fighter will be clottey period...if anyone thinks cotto will beat clottey please explain why when he will be the smaller man fight night???

    Long time ago, I said something like this. Cotto has improved a ton, think it can go either way.

      Cotto has the better all around skill,but Clottey is the best at what he does!!High guard,good jab,dropping the elbows on the body shots,Clottey is bigger and stronger,with a heart of stone,I'm a fan of both,but style wise Clottey as all bad for the Rican champ!!!!

        imo cotto wins a UD, he'll counter clottey and work those ribs, i'm hopping cotto wins by KO, now that would be a helluva statement

          I can see some accidental low-blows since Cotto is a great body puncher and people will criticize him for hitting the groan area because his opponent may be moving in when he throws a body shot. I don't know how Cotto will win, but I have a feeling he will. He might and may not throw body punches depending on his gameplan. I know they know Clottey has a good Uppercuts and Clotteys team knows Cotto has good body punching.

            yeah, it was but cotto was due a tune up because margo sodomized him.

            you can,t think that jennings prepared cotto for clottey or can you???
            not even ricans believe this

            he should have fought someone with a better record or someone who would push him and make him fight to see if there was any ill effects from the margarito fight...
            nah... margo beat cotto pretty bad. i mean cotto's wife & kids were crying

            we all know cotto is a confident fighter but he should have taken a couple of tune up fights before going after the big fish...
            yeah that's why you gotta give cotto props for fighting clottey

            i personally think clottey is going to break cotto will because he will see if theres any quit in cotto the first 3 or 4 rds. And then begin to walk cotto down and finish him in 8 rds....
            nah, it's the last 3 or 4 rds that we will see if there's any quit

            just remember clottey was beating the **** out of margarito before he hurt his hand and still was hitting marg with some clean shots while being hurt...
            true, you have to factor this into the equation, but he still lost

            and i know that margs chin was something sick back then and he was ripping clottey with some shots as well...
            margo's chin is still good, but margo is more heavy handed than a 1 punch KO guy anyways.

            i just think the better, stronger fighter will be clottey period...
            yeah, too bad the fight is in MSG a day before the PR parade

            if anyone thinks cotto will beat clottey please explain why when he will be the smaller man fight night???
            um... because all the prayers and hopes of the ricans will give cotto the motivation to win?

                  Cotto is good but Clottey is better and a nightmare.
                  Cotto's problem is he hits the balls a lot,how will Clottey respond to such infringements?

                    its hard to pick.

                    clottey's gaurd is very high, which sometimes leaves him open for body punches,
                    and cotto is very good at getting the body.

                    but cotto's defence is taylor-maid for someone who can use uppercuts on the inside,
                    which clottey is very good at.

                    like i said, it can go either way.
