    Clottey vs. SSM

    Is Clottey better than SSM?

    A Pacman fan said Clottey is better than SSM and he would beat SMM.

    Who would win right now between Clottey and SSM?

    Shane beats Clottey by UD. Clottey gives him hell, but gets overtaken in late rounds by Shane. That's Clottey's Achilles heel.

      i think people are reading too much into clotteys fight vs cotto. clottey took his foot off the gas but i dont think that it is in his nature. imo clottey's pre-fight antics with his wife may have had an effect on him in the later rnds.

      imo clotteys physical style is all wrong for ssm. mosley's power boxing against clottey won't work because clottey himself is a tough and durable fighter, remember his fights against cotto and wright. both those guys are strong fighters at their weights and shane speed and power couldn't get their respect. clotteys his high guard means that ssm's punches will be hitting him on the forearms, and he doesn't leave alot of space for a body attack neither.

      sugar shane is also there to be hit, he is not as mobile as he should be. in the fights with cotto and wright it showed that when shane can't back up his target he struggles.

      i see clottey winning the fight on dec, he might take his foot off the gas but i think he will win a majority dec.

        Shane wins easy. Clottey doesnt do enough to beat Shane. Covering up getting punched wont help him.

          i agree with your analysis

          but the only thing that would have me rooting for shane is the fact that i dnt believe clottey throws enough punches

              Clottey would beat Mosley and I'm real confident in making that pick. People need to be real here.

                  This is what I said on another thread.

                  It's gonna be some back and forth exchanges, but Shane won't be landing no where near as accurately as Clottey. Unlike Pacquiao/ Mayweather, Shane is gonna be right in front of Clottey after throwing his punches. Shane is the kind of opponent Clottey feeds off of. Plus Clottey can box, and we all know Shane struggles against good boxers. Clottey also has the durability to make the finish line. Look at Cotto's jab for example, Shane's jab doesn't compare to Cotto's. In fact Shane has one of the worse jabs, it's a 3-4 inch jab that he loves to leave out there; used to set up the overhand right (Which isn't gonna land on Clottey). I'm really confident in saying Clottey U.D.
