I called for Pacquiao to KO Hatton and Cotto, but lets be truthful.

    Clottey gassed vs. Cotto, Margarito and Guttiriez.

      I can give you the Margarito fight because he quit but look what he put himself through against Pacquiao.



      the guy has balls.

        Why did he take his foot of the gas tho? im not Cotto fan at all really but Cotto knocked him down and it was fairly even, Clottey came on strong for a couple of the mid rounds. Then slowed down and gave the judges more then enough reason to award Cotto the win.

        He was not clearly winning and had been knocked down i can;t see why he would step of the gas unless he was tired tbh.

        I see a stoppage for Pac anyway, maybe im seeing him dismantle Cotto and just overlooking Clottey, but i don't see Clottey with any tools/style which could hurt pac.

          Pacquiao doesn't have a jab like Cotto either.
          This is true but as much as I hate to admit it, Pac has more power in his fists. While Cotto is strong, probably stronger than Pac he doesn't have that electric one punch pop that Pac brings. Pac has a good chance of stopping Clottey imo.

              Its a mental problem he has not a physical one. He ALWAYS goes into cruise control.

                I think Pacquiao is stopping Clottey tonight, and I'm calling PEDs or a dive when it happens.

                The whole monster train wreck thing is getting ridiculous now.

                  That's even more serious then if it was physical imo, JTaylor has the same kind of problems. I hope he has sorted it out for Pac tonight tho i want to see a good competitive fight, he needs to be on it from r1 too 12 if he wants any chance of a decision.

                    i have been studying this fight for the last few weeks, i personally see pacaquio winning by a ud its gonna be a lot close than people think because clottey does possess a good right hand and a decent left hook to the body!!

                    the way to beat pac is with the jab and with seriously good footwork and rule number 1 you have to box and use your legs!!! clottey only has a jab which means he cant win!! but hes got an excellent chin, defense and decent heart, he does fire out some very decent counter punches and has quick hands but he cant cut off the ring and has average footwork but is defense is excellent and is right hand is carries ok power

                    the way i see this fight is diaz, hatton and cotto all wanted to fight with pacman, clottey aint gonna fight hes gonna box him and hes gonna keep behind that tight defense add in the weight advantage reach and height i see pacman fighting exactly like he did against de la hoya but pot shotting till the mid rounds where he will try and step it up but i think pacs conditiioning at this weight and the added fact hes being hit harder makes him not have a great engine as he had at the lighterweights

                    i fully see pac winning 9 rounds to 3 but clottey wont make it easy and i will be very surprised if he gets stopped he wont land clean enough to hurt him

                      Well he also broke his hand in a fight he surely would've won against Margarito. I also feel as though Clottey came very, very close to beating Cotto. If not for that flash KD it could've gone the other way. Clottey is underrated IMO & a sure threat to ANY welterweight in the world including Pac & Floyd.
