    Dude
    Your bugging. Simply styles make fights. Clottey is a defensive counter puncher and was in a shell all night in order for Pacquiao to land a shot he had to try and bait Clottey to counter the counter puncher. Thats why you saw him standing so close to Clottey at times and secondly the power that Pacquiao has that cant be quantified on television but look Clottey beat Zab Judah ass gave Margarito all he could handle with two broken hands in that fight. He fought a good fight againsnt Baldimor and he almost beat Cotto had Miguel running all over the ring and walked through Cotto most of the fight. Why didnt Clottey walk through Pacquiao because he found out what the rest of the welterweights are finding out this guy is blazing fast and he can PUNCH case closed. Mosley couldnt stand up to Cotto's power Pac desrtoyed Miguel. Pac would make Shane look old and I believe Pac knocks Shane even faster than he took out Oscar. As for Mayweather I dont see the fight happening I really believe Floyd is scared to fight this kid. Mayweather will not fight Pacquiao not after the way Manny is taking them all out. Straight right whatever Manny can take the punches and dish out the hurt. If the Mayweather Pacquiao fight is ever made you wont see the same guy who fought clottey the game plan changes and this one for Manny Pacquiao for the first time will be personal. Ouch Manny is gonna hurt that Mayweather

      Manny has absolutely no head movement and was extremely easy for Clottey to hit, even up close.......
      His defense is extremely weak, He doesn't hold his hands up...
      A sharp shooter like Floyd would batter Manny, And maybe knock him out in the late rounds
      I totally disagree with that one,I really was thinking yesterday that Pac's head movement has improved since the Marquez fight.

      Clottey landed "everytime",because he was throwing everytime he could,everytime Manny did a mistake.
      So it means Manny was doing very few mistakes.It's how I see that ****.

      Watch the other face of the issue.
      When I watch Floyd vs a southpaw,like JUdah.
      I'm like WTF,Floyd is really beatable for Manny.

      Manny ain't no judah,ask Clottey and Cotto.

      People are still critisizing Manny's habilities.
      But ****.Manny won it 120-108 in my opinion.
      Clottey won at best one round.

      Same **** for Cotto who won two rounds.
      He outboxed them,EASY.

      Manny is way more elusive than before,watch again,the Hatton,Cotto,Oscar,Clottey fights and tell me the guy is easy to hit.
      Manny ain't no Pavlik.

      Now of course a master of counter punching and defense like Floyd will give Manny way more troubles.

      But Manny athleticism,quickness,southpaw stance and high workrate give troubles to Floyd as well.

      Any person who thinks Floyd is goin to counter the **** out of Manny like he did to Hatton or Gatti is underrating Manny habilities.

      I see Manny making a competitive fight and maybe beating Floyd.

              We may want to wait until after May 1st before making any assumptions about what Floyd is or isn't capable of. 33, one fight in 2.5 years and first fight against a real welter in a long, long time. I keep hearing about how Mosley is old but Floyd isn't a spring chicken either. Pacquiao, on the other hands, is fighting as good as ever and, amazingly, is even more active than he was in his prime. After May 1st, you may feel differently about how Floyd stacks up against him.

                  There is no way because Pac won't fight the same style. He knew Clottey was going to be in a shell with his throwing punches. They studied tape...Occasionally Clottey opened up and popped Pac because Pac wasn't expecting him to open up. It's going to happen when your 95% offense...but that's the sacrifice. You can't have 100% defense like Clottey did and expect him to be constantly throwing back...Against Fraud, Pac will be more measured but just as explosive. I honestly can't see Fraud making it 12. He doesn't have anywhere near as good D as Clottey.

                    LOL another ******* Floyd's defense is way better than Clottey who just curls up into a ball. Floyd ducks, slips, bobs, weaves, and counters. Clottey just stands there and takes the abuse. Here watch a vid:

                      Pac was coasting the fight and was not at his best. Only when Clottey unloaded would Pac actually start throwing his combo's. He got hit but very often he stood there square on to get Clottey out of his guard.

                      I'm confident that Pac took it easy for some reason. He couldn't get through that defense but he ddn't want to risk too much either.
                      How was Pacquiao coasting or taking it easy when he threw 1200+ punches and pressured Clottey all night? People of this site post with emotion not intellect.
