Berto would be tougher because of his speed and boxing ability. Shane could beat Clottey based on sheer agression. Clottey takes too many breaks.
This is what I'm thinking. Styles make fights.
People are getting confused with "who is the better fighter." Clottey is clearly better. But for shane I think clottey is easier for him. Remember Mosley is getting up there in age. He looked good against slow poke margarito and pretty good against Cotto, who isn't all that fast himself. I just think a guy like berto is going to cause a lot of problems for mosley, he's going to look his age a bit if they are to fight.
People need to remember that Berto barely survived that journeyman Cosme Rivera who clipped him with an uppercut. Angulo and Judah completely obliterated Rivera and Berto looked suspect and went the distance against him. I think Berto has a higher work rate than Clottey, but that what will his work rate be like when he has to fight a hard puncher? The constant clinching that Berto does is bull****. And it is something that his own trainer is encouraging him to do. Mosley clinches a lot too, but at least it isn't the type of "Dont hit me" type clinching that Berto does all the time.
for the last time clottey dont have the killer in him to beat somebody like shane. berto is hungrier and just str8 better than clottey. if they were to fight i bet berto ud clottey.
I say its Clottey, but Shane would beat him easily imo.
1. Winky was an active fighter who put pressure on his oppenents. Ask Vargas, Tito, Taylor, and Mosley about that. People forget how much better Mosley did in the rematch. I believe all the cards were 7-5.
2. Clottey has trouble with speed. Watch the Judah fight before he quit. Look at all the flush shot Judah landed earlier. He was also turning Clottey around and circling him.
3. Clottey isn't active enough and only fight in burst if you ask me. Shane will be working his body until he opens up. That's when that left hook will connect.
Its also funny how some won't give Mosley credit for beating Margo. Even with gloves he wouldn't have landed anything. Cotto fought the wrong fight against Margo. Mosley fought the wrong fight against Cotto. I just wish it was Mosley vs Cotto 2 and Pac vs JMM 3 though
