If not he will be swole up and unrecognizable by mid fight. Him standing there taking blind combinations from Pacquiao won't be the same as what he did with Cotto. Half the shots Pac hits him with he won't see coming out of the south paw stance. I was doubting Pacquiao for a minute but the bigger Clottey comes in, the slower he will be. If he comes in light he will be weak. I can't see him doing much with Pacquiao unless he's got a great plan. And right now, personally, I can't think of one that I would try to employ aside from fighting dirty. Head butts, punches in the ass cheeks, etc. Anything that will slow the Asian Avalanche down.

Originally posted by LEFTYGUNZZ View PostTo me many here have been underestimating Joshua Clottey. I had lunch with my kids in McDonalds the other day and I was in the play room letting my kids romp around there were two Phillipine women sitting next to me and they were talking about boxing. I heard them mention Clottey and Pac fight. I asked them who they were routing for as if I didn't already know the answer to the question. I was very surprised with what I heard. They said they were routing for Pacquiao as I thought but what surprised me was the fact they knew who CLottey was. One of the women said yes Pacquiao is a great warriro but many are underestimating the size and strength of Joshua. He has only been beaten two times and both were VERY close fights with TOP WW competition. She said this fight will be at 147lbs and Joshua will be outweighing Pacquiao by at least 10lbs in the ring.
She pointed out the SPEED factor saying that the biggest trouble Joshua will have is with Manny's speed she was not looking for a knockout rather a 12 round decision for Pacquiao..I was shocked to see how knowledgeable these two woemn were about boxing. They mentioned Miguel Cotto and Mosely vs Mayweather. They were very excited about the upcoming fights in the super 6. The other women told me she was praying that Manny would win but she honestly thought CLottey was going to beat him. Stating the recent run at WW was a heaven sent for her people but as we know all good things come to an end and she thought Clottey had the style to give Manny trouble. I am convinced that NOT all Pacquiao fans are ignorant to the sport of boxing. Especially these two youngs mothers @ McDonalds here in Brooklyn.....Lefty

I think it will be a lot more competitive than some people think, but I still see Pacquiao winning a decision, likely a unanimous one.
I can definitely see Clottey rattling Pacquiao with some stiff shots, maybe even flooring him. I still think Pacquiao's relentlessness will be too much for Clottey.

Sure anything is possible, upsets happen all the time but in paper there is no way in hell Clottey can win this fight. He's too stationary, too predictable and his punch output is just minimal against an animal like Pac. Clottey sits on his defense all night with no real movement, Pacquiao goes in and out giving you angles plus throwing 4-5+ punches as he steps in then he gets out. The times Clottey throws he lunges at you a la Hatton, Pac will catch him and I'm actually starting to agree with Roach, Pac will be the first man to KO Clottey or make him quit, mark my words.

Originally posted by LEFTYGUNZZ View PostI truly think CLottey will try to man handle Pacquiao and make it a rough fight. Pacquiao was very uncomfortable getting clinched and fighting in clsoe wirt Hattona nd Cotto early on. I think Clottey will come in strong because whether he is light or heavy he has no chance in trying to match speed with Pac....Lefty
