Clottey is one of the best WW's today, why all the fuss about him vs pac?

[Easy-E]

Clottey lost to Baldomir, Margarito and Cotto. His biggest win is over Zab Judah, after he lost to Baldy, Floyd and Cotto.

He is a B level fighter with nothing that could potentially challenge Pac in the ring.

[Easy-E]

So why would Floyd want to fight Mosley? You know, since Cotto already beat him as well? And back when he wasn't almost 39 and inactive for well over a year, to boot.

Well Mosley holds the lineal title, is a well known fighter and brutally knocked out Margarito.

What has Clottey done lately? Besides lose to Cotto.

[Jim Jeffries]

Yes he still ahs the title.

Maybe because his fight Jan 30th got canceled.

But even that fight wasn't for a contender that was ranked by the WBA. How does he go over a year without defending his title? Now if he fights Floyd in May, that will be 16 months, doesn't make sense.

You forgot to mention:

No head movement

No workrate

Flat footed

Feather fisted

No stamina

Hes a guy famous for losing. Its a pointless fight. A stay-busy fight for Pac nothing more. How is it cleaning out the divison when Cotto just BEAT Clottey??

Clottey has awesome defence and a great straight right hand that will keep Pacman at check. Dont be suprised if Pac only wins due to activity and silly flurries that will be blocked by Clottey.

It was a unification bout. His fight getting canceled probably saved him from being stripped.

[Blue Heffner]

Clottey's biggest win is against Zab Judah for a vacant IBF title by a technical decision. Plus, Clottey is a Top Rank fighter.

A shot Zab Judah might I add.

Mosley was lucky to fight a Margarito without his wraps. Wraps Tony used to win the lineal title against Margarito. Doesn't take away from the fact that Shane lost to Cotto, who was beaten by Clottey in the eyes of many. (hell StreetBully had Clottey winning 8 rounds to 4)

That says it all.


Fact is Mosley is the Lineal Champion.
