    ah come on he went 12 because he had his hands glued to his face FOR THE WHOLE FIGHT it was ridiculous

    manny did well not to lose composure

    clottey went down in my estimation that was his big chance he will never get that chance again to perform on that stage and he basically said to himself im not getting ko infront of 50,000 people which is cool but honestly i respect Cotto MUCH more for at least trying to fight his fight against pac might not have been the smartest move but at least he didn't fight like a coward trying to survive

        Clottey is lucky that he is one of the toughest MOFO's out there and his style is all defence.

        I wanted to bet that Pac wins by UD because Clottey is just so tough. You don't fight Margarito with two broken hands (Or one) without having heart.

        He's a nice guy, really nice and I hope he gets a few big pay days, but his tactic was always going to lose him the fight, however I personally don't think an offensive Clottey would be as effective.

              Let the haters hate. Styles make fights, you gave it your all and you were never once seriously troubled but you got beat by the world's best P4P boxer. No shame in that at all.

              When everyone @ 147 can go 12 rounds with Pac Man then imo people can criticize Clottey.

              my 2 cents
              Cong**** to a welterweight that went 12 rounds with a guy half his size lol. Come on man 126lbers have gone 12 rounds with Manny.

              BTW Mannys last 12 round fight was March, 2008 against JMM.

                I agree. It comes as absolutely no surprise to see *****'s laughably attempting to **** on Manny's win. It wouldnt have mattered how the manner of victory came,this bunch of mongoloids would have poo pooed it. Whats funny to me is the fact that they have got sand in their collective fannies because it was a dominant performance. *******s.

                Clottey had no choice but to fight the way he did,but I defy anybody to try that against Manny. Clottey's defense was watertight,but what was so impressive is that he never got tired. Anybody who has fought will tell you that having your arms and your ribs hammered every round isnt an easy thing to do. Clottey deserves his respect.

                  I hope i never have to watch Clottey again. And i hope he never gets a World title fight again either. Retire Clottey, and let the fighters who want to fight, fight.

                    If you salute Clottey, I truly have to question your integrity as a person.
