    Name one fighter who actually looked good against Clottey..

    ..you cant ..Clottey has given everyone he has fought trouble.He is a great fighter. Since last night I've seen alot of people say he was robbed and it was a gift for Cotto..Today I watched the fight again and scored it for a 2nd time.I gave Cotto a 3 point win this time...I just dont see how people complain and say Cotto is a shot fighter when he fought a war with Clottey who gives everyone trouble..also he did it with one eye most of the fight..people say he's damaged good after the Margarito...well most serious boxing fans know deep down inside that Marg was plastered to say he wasn't is just ****** in my opinion...but thats a whole different story..anyways I keep hearing this about Pacman will destoy Cotto..I don't get this either.Pacman is a great fighter take nothing away from him..but I think alot of people are gonna be shocked when these 2 actually fight..anyways I said what I wanted to say..

    Clottey is a bad mofo. Edgin him closely is a big accomplishment. Cats who said Cotto would own him are nuts. And Pac by size and style is nothin like Clottey, so the 2 fights have **** all to do wit each other.

        Exactly, no one looks good against the guy. I don't get why people are so down on Cotto, Clottey would make everyone in the division look bad.

          After rewatching the fight I have it 114-113 Clottey.
          Previously it was 115-112 clottey, but I gave cotto the 11th second time
          around.

          I thought clottey easily won the 7 rounds he pulled imo. I can't score
          rounds for a guy who hits gloves then gets hit flush.

            Good point. His DQ to Baldy was 10 years ago too, so I don't even bother taking it into account. The Margarito fight, even with Marg coming on late, was still close.

              Rewatched that fight last night, I had clottey 7-5 as did the other 5 people who rewatched it with me..
              Which is awkward, because i remember scoring it 7-5 for Margi originally.

                I thought Marg looked good against him after the 5th... But other than that I can't think of a fighter outclassing him.. BTW Baldomir was losing when Clottey got DQ'd
