Clottey vs Quintana is Close For December 5 on HBO

[Lacrimosa]

Since fighting Cotto clottey seem to be getting all the attention he deserves, He needs to give Cotto props for fighting him, Cotto has helped alot of boxers at WW by fighting them when he doesnt really need to.

All of a sudden everyone wants to fight Clottey and the reluctant HBO seem to want to put him on...

I think all boxing fans should give Cotto props, for fighting the best out there! He is a great representative of the sport! Same should be said about all the recent and current top WWs : Mosley, Clottey, Williams, Quintana and bla, bla, bla... Margarito could also be on that list

[jrosales13]

yes and you know why? golden boy aint got nothing to do with it! top rank to the rescue.

Thats right I agree with you.

[El Angel]

This should be a good fight, but Clottey should win comfortably.

I am just glad he is not going to fight Holt, that would have been a bad move.

thsis is a good fight..it is better for quitana if he wins it because he needs the boost after a long layoff but if clottey wins its good for him to cause only 2 people(willaims, cotto) have beaten quintana albeit in brutal fashion

but quintana looked good in the begining agaisnt cotto and dominated williams for 12 straight..its gna e another great night of boxing

It's kind of sad for Clottey that he doesn't have that signature win that the other top WW's of this era have had. Even Quintana owns a win over Williams. I'd like to see Joshua win here, I just don't think it will happen.

If Quintana still has gas in the tank, he'll move around and frustrate the hell out of Clottey. I see him winning comfortably actually. He's an underrated boxer, will use angles and counter punching to outpoint his opponent.

Top Rank showing the field how it's done. Clottey-Quintana isn't big enough to headline but it makes for a tasty appetizer when you have a main event like Cotto-Pacquiao. Hopefully Arum can pull off one more nice matchup on the undercard and give another solid fighter much needed exposure and matching him tough.

[SceneSpectator!]

I don't believe Clottey has the power to hurt him. I could see Quintana winning this. I'm not a fan of either guy, but we saw how Cotto stopped Clottey from punching by using lateral movement. Quintana can do the same.

Cotto had a hard time with Clottey, and Quintana caliber is far below Cotto! Quintana can do the same just like what Cotto did? How's that?

I am just glad he is not going to fight Holt, that would have been a bad move.

agreed, fighting a 140 pounder moving up wouldn't have done a whole lot for Clottey.

Quintana is a much better opponent. but can Clottey win the fight?

[krispy kreme]

It will be a tough fight for both guys. Clottey better be prepared to hunt and finish strong, because Quintana is still a sharp boxer.
