    Not slick,but Black!!I don't know what these guys are saying about speed though,he has very fast hands,he just wants to cuddle them instead of throw them!!But Clottey's hands are super fast!!If Clottey averaged about 300 more punches a fight,he would be undefeated!!He's no bum,wide & physical,very good defense,decent counter puncher & very durable!!I'll bet he goes 12,the thing is,honestly he can outpoint Pacman,but he'll never be awarded the win!!I'm talking on a pfp level,Clottey can be compared to Marquez as if him & Manny are the same size!!Clottey just has slightly better chin & defense as Marquez has better offense!!

      Clottey is certainly black, but he is also certainly not slick.

      To be honest, it's a more daunting task than fighting Malignaggi, but I think Malignaggi would've been a good fight to prepare for Mayweather.

              Hes a good boxer, good strength and chin. But his speed is not that clever, same as his foot movement, hes fairly flat fotted.
              exactly he is far from slick, BUT he can throw nice combinations with speed and his punch power is strong.

              But head movement and foot movement is lackin. He does have a sorng chin but I noticed him hurt against Cotto. Pacquiao should eat him up with the angles he throws from

                    Doesn't mean he is not a very durable opponent... just doesn't have a slick style.
                    Pretty much what i think about Clottey.

                    Lmao, I know how you feel, But you dont have to be African american to be slick, Bute is slick and he's Romanian.
