Let's analyze Clottey-Pacquiao for a sec.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

yeaa..exactly... isnt oscar de la hoya the same height?
he's about 5'11 isnt he?

if Yuri can provide a $20mil payday, im sure his 'height-risk' would become worth it

WORDDD son.....

[p4p-champ]

clottey would be a good retirement fight for PAC...one and done...then move on to his political career...

Thats because you'd rather not see him in a ring with Mayweather Jr. You're simply not a true boxing fan if you wouldn't want to see the two them fight. I'm sure you'll take great pleasure in following Pacman's new career.

can't we all just get along?....

Well yeah alot of peoples opinions changed after he whooped Cotto in a 1 sided fashion (mine included.) Cotto still managed to beat Clottey with 1 eye though, i just don't thin Clottey has the style to trouble Pac.. Give him trouble? Make it difficult? sure he will

Just dont see him winning mainly down to inactivity, Stamina, he doesn't punch nearly as hard as Cotto either. I would pay for it tho, wouldn't pay for him facing Foreman or Paulie, even tho citing someone being tall as a way to avoid them is rather lame.

You forgot to read the part where he said he thinks he might be having trouble going back to 147 to fight Mayweather if he goes 154..

see.. the thing is i can already hear manny's camp saying
"we want to fight at 144"

clottey has a good chin, do you guys think paquiao will be able to hurt him or possibly KO him?

I'm not betting anything against Pacman anymore. The guy is seriously sick and probably in a level of his own. You never know man if anyone can get through Clottey's defense it'd be Pacman, and accumulation of punches can drop any boxer. Ask Margarito.

[rod_serrs]

Clottey is gonna be a solid fight for Pacman!!The 1 thing that can be guaranteed is that Clottey will be standing at the final bell,though as nails!!I don't think Clottey has stamina issues,he just doesn't punch enough!!I will stand by my statement,that if Clottey through 300 more punches a fight,he would be undefeated!!Clottey is a fast fighter as well,very good counterpuncher!!This fight will be tough,Manny should win based on activity,but it ain't gonna be easy!!If Pacman start slowly like he did with Cotto & Clottey gets momentum,then my friends,things could get crazy!!

Clottey doesn't carry his momentum and that's his problem. He had Cotto in the fight and let Cotto take momentum in the 6th when he was pinned in a corner for like 2 mins, and then when he had it back he let Cotto take it again in the last 2 rounds. Then of course you have Margarito fight when he let Margarito take complete control and had very little effort in getting it back. IMO Clottey lacks that killer instinct that many other top fighters have.

Clottey is disciplined, hits hard(anyone thinks not is crazy) doesnt mark. Hes going to walk Pac down, work the body, slow Pacquiao down. As Pac slows rip uppercuts. Respect to Pacman/ Roach for taking fight. this is not the damaged Cotto
