    If Clottey lands his signature headbutt...

    If you look at all of Clottey's big fights, there has been at least one headbutt. Cotto had to fight with one eye, Judah wasn't allowed to continue and Clottey was DQ'ed in the Baldomir fight.

    How do you think the Pacquiao fight will go from there? Do you think Freddie will request a DQ rule before the fight? Do you think it would result in a TD? Perhaps a TKO? Do you think it will go to the score cards? If so, who would win from there? Or perhaps will the doctors allow Pacquiao continue, and will he win or lose from there?

    And of course, Pac's head is huge so there's also the possibility of Clottey getting the damage done to his head instead, no matter how hard he hits it (like Mosley-Forrest I).

    Clottey is reckless with his head but he didnt headbutt judah, that was an uppercut which did the damage. I think as he starts to get frustrated from being outworked then he will start his dirty tactics in the Pac fight.

      I always considered it an uppercut, but every article I read called it a headbutt so I assumed I was wrong. Glad to see people agree.

        More like Judah didn't wanna continue( just my opinion)


        Pacquiao will probably fight harder...he isn't gonna change styles mid-fight and I don't think he can...

          They should just allow instant replay overrule like they did on last night's fights.

          That way if Pac does get cut because of a headbutt, it can go to the cards if it's stopped.

            Yeah I remember the replays and Kellerman facial expression when he shoed it to Judah. On a more serious note Clottey is mentally weak and when the pressure starts he will start to cheat i.e headbutts.

              True. Well Judah was shot back then anyways, so I'd pick Pacquiao to work it out and win a decision if he had a huge cut caused by a clash of heads. I mean if Cotto can do it by backpeddling and not throwing any punches, I'm sure Pac can too.
