Everyone needs to step back and realize that tomorrows fight

Pretty much what Ive been saying... how is that possibly a knock on Clottey?
They ALLLL do it.
And Corrales CHOSE to come up to WW because he couldnt make the weight anymore, and they made the fight with Clottey.
Clottey was still virtually unknown, what's he going to do .. turn it down with a name fighter?
And yeah, no one can blame Clottey for taking the fight. No one at WW was exactly dying to fight him, then or now.Comment

I'm a fan of both!!I'm supporting Clottey simply because Cotto has enough support already and I've been watching Clottey bottom feeding because all the other top welterweights have been casually avoiding the Hitter!!I know in my heart Clottey is as good or better than the other top welters!!i know Cotto has the star power to have a gloryous career even if he losses to Clottey,but Clottey does not have that luxury,so right now I gotta ride with the underdog!!!Comment

Will be easy for NOBODY...
Clotteys defense is too tight for Cotto to hurt him, but he often doesnt throw enough which will leave Cotto opportunity to out work him.
Cotto is going to be looking to go for Clotteys body, because his head will not be available 90% of the time... and when Cotto goes to the body, Clottey will be looking to counter shots immediately, with FAST left hooks and uppercuts.
Another thing, people saying Clottey will stop Cotto because of his pressure. Clottey CAN apply pressure, but he is not a pressure fighter. Clottey is a defensive first, counter puncher... who looks to take advantage of whatever it is you do. Occasionally Clottey will take the lead with a quick powerful jab, and a fast left hook to the body.
With Cotto's boxing skills and body work... Clotteys tight defense, fast hands, and CLEAN combination punching... this fight will be a CLOSE fight and easy for nobody.
On top of the fact they are BOTH hungry, Cotto wants to be back on top with a win over an elite fighter (Clottey is elite imo)... and Clottey wants to FINALLY be on top, the way Margarito did when he came to fight Cotto.
This fight will be close, it will be competitive, and nobody will win this easily.
Neither man is coming to lie down, and they are both capable of beating each other.
The only thing I am betting on, is this fight goes the distance.Comment

no they are not clottey just chooses to sit on his ass and expect fights to just come to him if he really wanted fights he should do what pwill does and make set dates for fights and fight the best competiton available and eventually you will get a top contender but instead clottey rather be inactive and wait for a big fight than consistantly fighting and forcing a big fightComment
