      I don't know, Clottey has had the worst luck. His best win is Zab Judah.

              To be honest most people rate his best "win" as a close loss to Cotto. Judah is a decent legit win but he doesn't have much else

                      Corrales is a SFW/LW...right?

                      Diego had moved up two full divisions to fight Josh.

                          That's kind of like saying that ChopChop had bad luck. He stunned Floyd, but couldn't capitalize. He hurt cotto, but couldn't finish.

                          I view Clottey as much the same way. Close but no cigar.

                          Is that fair?

                              Zab Judah.

                              He frustrated him early and then begin to break him down as the fight progressed. If Zab didn't look for a way out, Clottey would of stopped him.

                              Clottey gets more credit for his close fights with Cotto and his competitive fight with Margarito than he does for beating Judah.

                              Alot of people felt Clottey beat Cotto and even though i felt Cotto won, i can't disagree with them feeling Clottey won.

                                  It's fair. Like how JMM's best win is Diaz or Casa. Close but no cigar. Yet everyone rates him highly, which is clearly because of his close fights to Pac.

                                      ? He was about to knock Judah out in the next 3 rounds.

                                      And Corrales was WELL out of his weight.
