    yeah but he's tougher than him....his accumulation of punches will wear you down....his defense is better so he will have more of a chance of getting to Manny than Cotto. Everytime Cotto went inside he came away running!

      He's not tougher than him at all. He takes a better punch but he's not tougher.

        then please watch Clottey vs Margo compare it to Cotto vs Margo...when the going gets tough Cotto's a different fighter..

        Cotto's not tough at all i'm sorry man...Clottey never ever goes back in a fight.

          I watched. When the going gets tough, Clottey folds. Whether it's hand problems that last 3-4 rounds, headbutts or ankle sprains. I don't see it. And I've been watching Clottey since 1999.

            Bull****.
            You ain't worried you just wanna add to the build up.
            Manny ain't fightin no chumps but everybody knows this is a fight Manny should win.

              and i watched Cotto being rocked by Torres...and was saved by the ropes from crashing...he ran after that till Torres ran out of gas (he took that fight on 3 weeks notice i think)....he also ran against Mosley when Shane came after him...against Margo...and against Pac he embarassed himself man....at least ODLH was glued to the corner when Manny pounded him. Cotto's no PBF, he fights like JCC against weaker opponents then goes the other way when challenged.

              anyway to each his own...we'll see March 13th.

                He's stiff as a board.

                It will take a slick boxer to beat Manny.

                  So Cotto ran but...the other guy got tired? Well, I guess so. Anyway, what I saw was Cotto get rocked, dropped, and come back and pull off the KO. Is he more gifted than Clottey? No. Talented? No. Tougher? Absolutely. Not to worry though, if you haven't realized this yet (as if the Baldomir fight wasn't enough), you'll see soon enough.

                    Clottey sounds like he's ready to get on his knees and give Pac a few blows to the "head". If you know what I mean... LOL!

                    For those that didnt get it, Clottey is just happy to be in the ring with Pac. Easy W for Waka.

                      Of course i'm worried. Clottey is no push over and he's not going to get hit like Cotto did. And i don't have add to the build up, i'm not getting paid for it and they don't need it. I'm hoping Manny would win but i honestly don't think it's a sure thing like everyone is making it up to be.
