Mosley will look his age against Clottey

[Silencers]

The thing with those 2 are that they have very, very good jabs which enabled them to offset Mosley, Clottey's jab while being good, is not on the same level as Wright's and Cotto's. And I think Richardson will help Mosley out quite a bit here moreso than even against Margarito because of his gameplans, Mosley won't just try to power-box his way to victory now.

How much does Shane have left? The Rock says enough to beat Joshua "I could've finished a bloody Cotto but am too much a *****" Clottey. Clottey can't finish fights. Shane will beat Clottey.. especially if he has his balco cream cracker snacks.

That is a very good point, Clottey just doesn't have the timing or authority of a Cotto jab or Wright's but is still pretty solid. I think Clottey jab is solid enough to give Mosley some trouble, Clottey also throws good uppercuts.

[Chuckguy]

Cotto has much better timing than Mosley and it was hard as **** to penetrate Clottey's defence. All Mosley will hit is gloves and those 38 years old will beging to show up. I expect Mosley-Clottey to be an ugly ass fight but it will be fun to watch!

Let me guess you say this everytime BHop fights too dont you
Shane is going to be just fine and Clottey is in for a rude awakening come Dec 26th

Hopkins is a freak of nature I don't say this everytimes he fights.

[Jim Jeffries]

Mosley was looking his age against Mayorga till the very end of the fight. He's 38 now and I wouldn't be surprised if he looks old against Clottey, plus he won't be able to stop him to save his performance. But like Silencers said, Clottey doesn't have the jab to bother Mosley. Should be a close fight, but I think Shane edges it. If not, he should retire.

[Addition]

There is nothing in Clottey's arsenal that should worry Mosley. Clottey is way too defensive. The only way Mosley loses is if he gets tired.

[Pullcounter]

Mosley will be facing for the first time in some time a fighter that has great defence! When you look at Mosley past fights you see that Mosley been facing guys with no defence what so ever. Look how Mosley look against Cotto (Underated defence) and Wright. Mosley got out box silly by both.


I expect Mosley to look all those 38 years old against Clottey.

how? clottey don't like throwing punches, especially late when he gases.

u can't compare mayorga to clottey. mayorga even at 154 have decent power and his workrate is better than clottey.

2 things: workrate and richardson

mayorga also doesnt have the technical skills that clottey has, people need to stop talking about clottey's workrate constantly..have you watched more of his fights besides the one with cotto? he doesnt have a high workrate because he is a precision puncher, he makes his punches count and he picks his spots.
