    Clottey is a world class fighter .....I admit that I almost wripped the plasma down off the wall last night outta anger but I calmed down and then common sense kicked in.....how can you not salute a LIMITED fighter with no real trainer that goes 12 rounds with the BEST ****in' fighter on the planet?!?......I guess Clottey getting KTFO would've made some of yall happy huh?!?......its easy to type a post on a forum...****, my 4yr old can do that......but to go 12 rounds with the King of the Ring is something different.....not many men can accomplish that...not many!!.....so some of yall should be honored to have seen one last night, his name is Joshua Clottey!!.....I guess Manny lied when he said Joshua was tough and his defense was very hard to crack because Clottey gets no props for making the stoppage predictons look crazy as his haircut.......I knew from the door that Josh was even coming to win or coming to be a part of the EVENT.......I don't know when he made his mind up about just being part of the EVENT.....but I knew he made the decision around the 6th or 7th round and it ANGERED me big time.....I can feel some of yall frustration but lets keep it real and call a spade a spade here my dudes.......style wise this fight was Manny's from the door.....Clottey went in with a ****ers chance......I placed bets on that chance(REAL MONEY) but I can't say that what happened last night was totally unexpected......Clottey fans knew the worst thing that could happen was what happened.....not a KO or stoppage, we KNEW that wasn't happening but alot of you did and I think you cats just rantin'!!.....like I was last night(I threw everybody out the crib last night ).....its Sunday so roll a splift and think....let common sense kick in......and to you dudes who said Clottey was gonna get stopped....WELCOME TO REALITY!!....sorry for the long ass post to!!

      hatton earned his money. Hatton clearly went in there looking for a knockout but it was just proved he didnt belong in that fight.

      Clottey should retire though, i refuse to watch another one of his fights.

        Come on man....that is straight bull****.

        Going the full 12 fighting like that....there is nothing impressive about that. Nothing. He went into that ring with his goal being to go the distance and he sat in a shell throwing 25 punches a round......he deserves ZERO credit for anything.

        The guy did a disservice to himself, the fans, and more importantly, the sport.

            I dont know why most people are angry about that fight. In my opinion Clottey did his best against the Pacquiao he was able to hit Pacquiao with his right all the time and to not get hit like Cotto , Hatton, De la Hoya. I think people are expecting too much from Pacquiao. I like the fight yes the undercard ****** but Arum used the Mexicans fighters to increase the PPV in Mexico. Actually the best round for Clottey was round 11. Clottey gave his best but Pacman could take all the punches. I could see that Pacmans goal was to knock Clottey out everybody who knows boxing could see it. It was clear from the beginning Clottey just can win by KO,TKO and Pacman by KO,TKO at least UD.

              JMM went 12 straight rounds twice, and actually fought back.

                Exactly. I mean I don't mind him losing all 12 rounds and getting badly outworked.

                Paul Williams did that to Winky, but Winky actually tried. Clottey didn't seem to give a **** at all.

                    Hatton alteast tried, Oscar didn't hide in the guard all night, Miguel Cotto half-tried, he started getting on his Kawasaki after round 7 but we all knew his history.

                    Clottey didn't try and he came into the ring with a "last all 12 rounds" game plan.

                      TS does a dis-service to Cotto coming out with this crap

                      Only guy I take issue with for his performance v Pac was ODLH, because he quit but then he had 5 guys screaming in his face telling him to quit

                      Clottey did his best, every time he opened up he got rained on.
