[misterced]

[Nobuhiro Sugoi]

My bet would be Clottey will KO Pacman.

josh is a tough opponent to KO, but pac is full of surprises. if pac's goal is to KO josh, well, that will be a good motivation to train harder. but still anything can happen. josh is a very hungry fighter, he might pull an upset being the bigger man. eventually, imo, pac has the slight edge to beat josh. an entertaining fight for sure.

I actually have a lot of confidence in Manny's chin after what I saw in the Cotto fight. Cotto hit Manny with some monstrous flush shots, and never once was he in danger of getting knocked down or knocked out. Even Roach was surprised, so with that said, I can see Clottey busting Manny up but not knocking him down or out.


BTW I wonder how Freddy is gonna neutralize Clottey's head buts? lol

Which makes many people wonder if he is indeed on something since he got got knocked down and really hurt against Nedal Hussein in 2000, with a Jab Hook of some sorts..that was on his 31st fight and at 122. And if you don't know then check it out.

Well thats because the return fire to the head was too quick....Clottey can counter Pac to the body when he shoots in to punch Clottey to the head......Clottey can win this if its @ 147....but his timing needs to be 100% from round one and he needs to lift his workrate by 10-15 %

all of pac's victims have the game plan to counter to the body.
but as recah said, they all lost focus when pac's leather lands on their heads.
clottey is no different, nothing special.
remember how many fans claim that cotto can adapt anytime during the fyt.
that cotto got the mind to focus on the task at hand.
we know what happened after he felt manny's razor-sharp fists.

Sure....making Clottey drain himself to make 144 lbs would be great! such bs! if he wants to fight at Welterweight then why make it a "catchweight" fight? that's a ***** move!

i don't think 144 is already official...other than koncz said it.
i'll reserve my comment....

okay now we r going to find out how good pac really is at ww. this will be the first fight at ww ,where his opponent is not having to kill themselves to make 147 for the first time in years(Oscar)or trying to get down to a catchweight of 144-145(Cotto)for the first time in years

those fyters agreed to the catchweights.... go blame them ****** boxers.
kudos to pac for taking such risks and gave us great fyts...unlike xxxxx hmmmm

The difference is Cotto and Hatton aren't that great defensively and at protcting their noggin.........If Clottey can execute the correct game plan he can win this fight......
