Sometimes Bob Arum says some ****** sh-t. First of all, he should be talking about who Cotto is gonna fight if he wins. Cotto is being way disrespected by Bob Arum here. Cotto is going to box circles around Foreman and then maybe even knock him out late. He is the superior fighter, period. If Margarito did not cheat, Cotto would have boxed circles around him for the full 12 rounds. The only fighter that truly beat Cotto was Pacquiao and Cotto gave him a run for his money for the first 6 rounds at 145 lbs. Second, Clottey does not deserve to be on a main event or fight for a title ever again. He went into his biggest fight and said "I'm gonna get paid and go the distance. I am not going to try to win this fight because if I do he could catch me with a good shot." No heart whatsoever. I know his style is a defensive style but there were times he could've unloaded and decided to stay in his defensive shell. If he feels good at the new weight, I think Cotto is going to surprise a lot of people and beat some good 154 fighters along the way. You cannot put a value on a guy's heart, especially when he's got the skills to go with it. Clottey=good skils, no heart. Cotto=good skills, all heart.Comment

Couldn't agree with you more my brother. Good ****!!!Sometimes Bob Arum says some ****** sh-t. First of all, he should be talking about who Cotto is gonna fight if he wins.

Joshua Clottey to fight Yuri Foreman if foreman beats cotto??...clottey will just be a punching bag again..According to Top Rank CEO Bob Arum, if WBA junior middleweight champion Yuri Foreman is able to get past Miguel Cotto on June 5 in Yankee Stadium, then Joshua Clottey might be next in line to get a title shot. On Saturday night at Cowboys Stadium in Texas, Clottey was dominated over twelve rounds by WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao. [Click Here To Read More]Comment

I'd be highly surprised if Foreman can get through Cotto.
If he can, I expect him to handle Clottey at 154 quite easily. Clottey will be slower and Foreman fights on his toes pretty well. UD Foreman.Comment

So now it is obvious that Arum told Clottey to lose and he would get him a title shot/big money fight next. Clottey hit Manny pretty good whenever he decided to throw punches but stopped and stepped back, WTF?
To me it was clear from the beginning that he went there to lose and make Pacquiao look good. Maybe now he can move out of that crappy apartment and buy his daughter some better clothes.
