The PED's will KO Clottey.

Pacquiao's Explosive Dynamite.

You're right!

I like Clottey and wish him all the best in this fight, but I don't see him winning. He has a good chance, though. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned or a fighter with something to prove.

Out of 4 of Manny's last fights, Clottey seems to be the one that isn't underestimating Manny's size and punching power.

Will it help in the fight? Who knows

No matter how much I review Clottey's fights, I just can't see him winning over Pacquiao.

1. Clottey's defense (arm block) was useless against Margarito's constant attack. Especially in the later rounds.
2. Clottey is not a hard hitter. He's just not. I think he has the same punching power with Floyd.
3. Like Cotto, he stays in front of you. He doesn't move.
4. He's got the hand speed but he also can't hit moving opponents. Clottey vs. Judah early rounds.
5. He's not a K.O. artist. I'm not sure how far can he take the fight.

Styles make fights. Pacquiao vs. Mosley would have been super. (sigh) Wishful thinking.

Yeah,he doesn't seem overconfident like Miguel Cotto,Fatton or Oscar and his cherry pick.

How could someone be overconfident when pacquiao has walked thru his last 3 opponents? Weight drained or not.

joshua is indeed a very nice person. just like manny, he knows how to respect his opponent.

this fight would be a very tough one for manny, joshua is a huge ww, good defense, quick hands but fades during the last rounds.

joshua is a hungry fighter and this is his best opportunity to shine and i think he will be at his best for this fight. it's now or never.

for manny, this will be a good chance to try his skills in cracking a defense shell of a bigger with longer reach opponent. good tune up fight if pac-floyd fight happens.

i pick manny to win but 'am not counting out clottey to pull an upset. this will be a very exciting match.

If Manny gets past Clottey it would be a great tune-up against Floyd. His performance against Clottey pretty much tell how he is going to go against Floyd I think only that Floyd is faster and slicker but both a very good defensive fighters.

Clottey Is A Very Classy.....In The Ring..A Monster!

Clottey's approach for this fight is totaly different from the guys the Pac KO'D. Joshua is not pressuring himself which is a good thing...If Clottey can impose his will the first 3 rds...and overwhelm Pac, I am preety sure that he can connect his kO punch and take Pac out...Pac is a slow starter so the 1st 3 rounds will be the key to his W.

if memory serves me correctly,Clottey injured his hand in the Margarito fight and thats why Margs got the decision, because he was able to outwork a one handed Clottey. also in the judah- clottey fight that I saw It was Clottey beating Zab to the punch and catching him on the move or not early and often.

Pac is a slow starter.

Yes, as Ricky Hatton discovered.

[StarRican]

Clottey's slow movement is whats going to hurt him in the end. Sure, hes got a great chin but when your going to be bombarded with shots every round, eventually its going to take its toll. It wouldn't surprise me if Pacman was able to knock him out at some point.

Don't know how he is going to be bombarded with shots when his defense is almost impossible to get a clean punch on. Most of the shots would get blocked by his gloves. Its when he opens up to throw is when you will have to see if Paq can counter.
