To 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
