Who agrees Clottey has better D than Fraud?

No, just no. While Clottey has tight D, it's not special. Fighters can do what he does, maybe not at the same rate but at a pretty good clip. Floyd's D is pretty and very effective. He also can work off his D well to a pretty solid O. Clottey a good on the D but Floyd is special with his D. IMO, he is number 3 of all time when you talk defensive fighters.

For Floyd to beat pac he would have to fight. He won't win with potshots. If that was enough for the baldomirs or the delahoya's that wont be enough against pac. he will get outworked, outlanded and beat.

What's the point of having good defense when you have absolutely NO offense.

Atleast Floyd uses his foot work and dodging to create offensive opportunities.

If you call hiding in a turtle shell good defense. LOL

I shouldn't think many people. Also you are severely under-estimating how much it would hurt to be hit like that by Pacquiao for twelve rounds, regardless of whether most are landing on his arms, gloves and body.

Mayweather wouldn't have let Pacquiao touch much more than air, let alone his body so often.

Umm... no. Do some of you guys only watch boxing when your favorite fighter is fighting?

In that, he barely got tagged...meanwhile we've seen Fraud stumble around either off balance or not here and there in his fights. Judah caught Fraud with a quick hook...Hatton made Fraud stumble back. You can't be that sloppy or have 1 defense lapse against Pac. I honestly believe Clottey has better D than Fraud in that the way he covers his head and body altogether is way better than Fraud trying to slip punches while his head is still exposed. You saw how Pac was throwing to the sides of Clottey's head? Imagine that moreso on Fraud who doesn't even defense his head completely. Pac will get to it so much easier than Clottey it ain't even funny. If Fraud makes it 12 rounds I WILL BE IMPRESSED.

Clottey has Def=95% ...CounterP=5%
Fraud Jr has Def=35%..CounterP=40% Runner(chicken)=25%
