Clottey says he's weight drained at 147

[Rolling Stone]

Clottey isn't weight drained
if he was he'd be at 154 by now
he just needs an excuse for giving up late rounds
he could win decisions if he fought the full 12
KO power has nothing to do with it

i agree.....Clottey had that fight in the bag but he gave the last 2 rounds away

[Rolling Stone]

Clottey should be grateful he is making millions in this fight.....he got lucky pacquaio vs mayweather fell through

[Rolling Stone]

Clottey needs a

wow really joshua?
if you were smart enough you would have moved up to 154 by now

...

Clottey should move upto 154 and fight Martinez if Martinez doesn't stay at 160

[JOM'S]

lolz Clottey want to enjoy his size advatage at WW so that's his main reason in staying at this weight...

plus WW is loaded with named fighters, and he hit the lottery and is now fighting PAC for his biggest payday!

Who cares. u decided to cash in so take this humiliation like a man. *** all ur excuses.

[catalinul]

No where there says he is weight drained.Having a hard time making weight is a complete different thing.

Besides it's his choice to stay at 147 where he usually rehydrates significantly.

[krispy kreme]

No surprise that's why his performances are lacking, his body is too big.

This is bogus. If Clottey could not fight effectively at 147, he would not fight there.
He is making excuses for when Manny beats him.

True. He thinks he will lose to Pac already so has his excuse in the bag. He does care for his own legacy, afterall. Its not just Pac who cares.
Clottey did fine against Cotto, so there is nothing wrong with him. All boxers at the back of their minds wonder if they are in their best weight classes. But that is all that it is.
Humans are worriers whatever the worry may be. Young girls worry they are too fat. Woman worry they are getting old etc.

you cant have it both ways if you want to go in the ring with a size advantage over your opponents you cant complain later that you were drained if you cant make the weight go up. that being said clottey has been making the weight for years its not like he will be drained for this fight only there is no catchweight expect a good fight clottey will go in the ring about 15-20 pounds heavier then pac and with a different strategy and less mental and physical wear then cotto this will be pacs toughest fight yet at ww despite what you might hear in this thread.

[FLYBOY]

of course. Pacquiao is not ******.

He only fights weight drained opponents who have no energy on fight night. If they are not weight drained, they are shot. Add to this, the Perfomance Enhancing Drugs.
