    People are underestimating Clottey

    Maybe I'm thinking too much of Clottey but I think this could possibly be one of Pac's hardest fights in a long time. Hes the strongest opponent Pac has ever faced and has an excellent chin with good defense. He also has overall good technical skills. Clottey has the abilities to push around and go to war with the smaller Pacquiao. If Pac takes him too lightly or goes toe-to-toe, it could be a very long night.
    Clottey seems like a nice guy but I'm hoping for a Pac win and think it'd be better for boxing, but I feel way too many people are not giving Clottey a chance and thats ridiculous.

    It's not about underestimating Clottey. It's about Pacquiao having "extra help". You cannot beat superman if you are a human. Pacquiao is on Perfomance Enhancing Drugs.

      Thats ridicuous. Because Mayweather said it, it must be true. There is no proof whatsoever of any of that. Quite a shame people slander boxing with lies and no proof. They claim they love the sport and then bash their superstar for allegations from a non-credible source with a motive.

        I believe Clottey will fight competitively in the first few rounds, but as soon as Pacquiao opens up, he will be in a lot of trouble.

              No, I think people are estimating Clottey perfectly.
              He does not have good power, has a real good chin, has good defense but covers up too much, does not have great speed, and has nothing in his arsenal that can trouble Manny.

                I'm not just saying it because Mayweather said it.

                Use your brain. If you have $50 million on the table and an opportunity to shut the critics up who say you are a cheater, would you walk away? And would you have a different answer every time someone asks you why the fight with Floyd did not happen?! Oh, I'm scared of needles. Oh, I don't want to give in to his demands. Oh, I will be weak if I take the tests.

                It's utter bull**** when Pacquiao says that he will be too weak if he takes the tests. I'm not even going to say anything else. I'm tired of explaining the whole situation a million times. Read my past posts if you want to know more.

                As bad as you might think Floyd is, Manny is worse. Manny is a big hypocrite. He claims to be a religious person, a family man, a good leader but actions speak louder than words> http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=341842
