    Manny lead left will dominate Clottey.

    Clottey is too stationary for him. Case in Point: Watch Clottey struggle to find Cotto. Watch Cotto pop that lead left at :7 seconds. Watch how when Cotto moved Clottey tried to cut the ring off. ONE problem his hands were down. He doesnt guard himself when his opponent is moving. Pac will be moving the whole fight.

      He stopped Zab moving very well and I'd say Zab's style is more of a boxers than Pac's.

        Many will be shocked, but not me...

        The "Hitter" will beat Pac.

        If he doesn't, I have no problem eating crow...

        But if he does,

        I want full credit for being one of the first to say it, and stick by it. I see real problems in this fight for Manny.

          clottey is underrated, but he isn't gonna beat pac by throwing 4 punches a round.

              Clottey winning Pac is like Ghana winning the African Cup

                I've been saying that ever since this fight was made. Pac is going to get busted up in this fight and there is no doubt about it. There will be more questions about Pac fighting at welterweight then answers on March 14th the day after. Those fans who think Pac is going to walk through Clottey are delusional. Clottey is going to be all over Manny's ass from start to finish. Freddie Roach will stop making those dumb ass predictions after this fight. Team Pacquaio made a major miscalculation when they chose this fight.

                  If Clottey didn't gass against Margarito, got more aggressive in the late rounds against Cotto (I had him winning that though), didn't headbutt Baldomir...he'd be undefeated. Not to make an excuse for the dude, I was once a fan, but I'm tried of seeing him choke.

                  People should rewatch the Margarito vs. Clottey fight. It wasn't so much his broken hand; he ran out of gass.

                      Clottey comes to fight for the first 6 rounds and after that he would run out of gas and then look for a way out if possible, People are trying to overrate Clottey now that he would be sharing the same ring with Pac but Clottey is nothing more than a solid WW.
