    Still a good fight for Pacman.
    has pac faced any defensive fighters ? ,no ,why will he face the king of defense (mayweather) first, without a b-alike fighter

      My point is that Mayweather and Clottey's styles are not the same, even as defensive fighters. Can you comprehend that?

      Like I said, a good fight for Pacquiao nonetheless.

        The deal was done quickly.
        Clottey is a Top Rank fighter.
        Do you all think Arum is going to allow Clottey to mess up May-Pac?

            Only Pacman can make the caliber of a Clottey look like a tune-up. When Cotto-Clottey happened it was a legitimate welterweight fight that could go either way.

              you call Oscar landing 20% of his punches and hitting elbows,gloves & shoulders all fight a DIFFICULT FIGHT???

                  clotteys a good fighter....but i dont think he is a tune up fighter since hes a hard puncher who can create problems for Pacqiuao

                    A "tune-up" fighter is someone who's used to get back into the game after a long lay off. But I know what the TS means. I can't agree, however, that Clottey is being fought in preparation for a future bout with Mayweather. Josh and Floyd are nothing alike. I find Clottey an odd choice for Pacquaio. While I think Manny wins the fight, this could turn into a tougher night than necessary. That's one of the things you've gotta like about Pac-man; he'll fight anyone, anywhere.

                      It will say more about the greatness of Pacquaio than any deficiency of Clottey's.
