Is the Pac - Clottey fight the type of fight you didn't bother watching only to wake up screaming Sunday morning because the guy on ESPN just called Clottey the new WBO Welterweight champ?
Where the hype at?
I don't hear much about this fight. I'm not buying it and my Pinoy friends will not be holding their usual Pacquiao tailgate parties in their garages and I don't even know if they're buying it, as well.
Is the boxing world overlooking Clottey and assuming that it will just be another day at the office for Manny Pacquiao or are they nervous for Manny and would rather just find out the next morning so that they could spare themselves the gut wrenching moment of watching the ref raise Clottey's hand in a Buster Douglas type, kind-of, upset?
I still remember waking up Sunday afternoon and watching highlights of Douglas' upset of Mike Tyson on TV. Dang! I didn't even know they were fighting that weekend. I thought it was the weekend after.
Something seems very weird with tomorrow's fight. Like the calm before the storm.
