Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Clottey Finalized: Cowboys Stadium, Full Details

[incredible]

People are real crybabies in here. For years every major welterweight has tried to stay clear of Joshua Clottey and for one reason or another avoided a fight with him. Pacquiao signs to fight him and everyone thinks it's an easy fight. When has Clottey ever been an easy fight for any person? He was cleaning Margarito's clock until he broke his hand and without that first round flash knockdown he would have beaten Cotto.

He could have still beat Cotto if he hadn't fell asleep in the last 2 rounds, and let Cotto off the hook. Might have been a draw without the knockdown, but the knockdown I agree is what put Cotto over the top, that and he did more the last 2 rounds; while Clottey didn't do enough.

if it's all black fighters, the promoter is trying to milk the black community?

dont be a hater.

a businessman has to have a target market. you dont advertise alcoholic drinks in a country where there are a lot of ******s.

in the same vein, texas being near the border and with a lot of hispanic-american residents, it's a wise idea to have hispanic boxers on the undercard.

if the venue was california, expect loads of pinoy fighters on the undercard.

I have a long time dislike for bob on this. hes always trying to exploit Mexicans just to line his pocket. im tired of **** like this going on around the industry, im tired of managers advising their pocho fighters of Mexican decent who needed to be reminded they are of Mexican decent to walk into the ring with Mexican flags and wear Mexican attire on their trunks. I have even expressed my dislike of Arum recently starting the new "Pinoy Fury".

would have should have could have but didn't. Margarito/Cotto did what they had to clottey didnt

Clottey always gets to the brass ring,but the difference between a great fighter and good one,is that the great fighters take and hold it(the brass ring).Clottey just looks at it

[Shattered Jaw]

This is an awesome fight. Clottey is an exceptional fighter. One of the best welterweights in recent years.

lmfaoooo you saw what Manny Duckquiao did to Cotto who is a way more skilled fighter and has way more power than Clottey,i'm not buying this bull****

it's pretty obvious Duckquiao is going to win,only thing i'm looking forward to is the Toño Margarito come back!

[BillyBoxing]

How is it a mismatch? A natural lightweight fighting a natural junior middleweight.

Yeah,Funny how *****s are goin far...

I thought Cotto was shot and beaten by Clottey according to *****s...

So now he's fightin Clottey who is in his prime and has never been stopped.
But Clottey now is an handpicked journeyman who get beat by Cotto.

Funny.

Pump you cant't ignore these facts about Clottey.

He has no stamina.

He doesn't give angles.

He comes straight foward.

He rarely punches.

He doesn't hit hard.

He doesn't move his head.

Pacman will beat him pretty easy.

[PPAAKKMMAANN]

PAC will KO stationary clottey in about 8 rounds

[cheering]

so ?

no drug-testing, i assume ?

what ?

[Doc Holliday]

Arum wanted the next fight at Cowboy Stadium from the jump. Jerry must have offered Arum something good for him to kill the pbf-pac fight. No way money was going to fight in Texas so Arum f'd that fight up for clottey who would fight pac anywhere.

That's what I was thinking. If anyone killed PBF/Pac it was Bob.
