Let me Get this Straight, CLOTTEY loses the Fight and Then GET DOUBLE The PAY!!(WTF)

So according to Horus, Floyd must be the biggest ducking b!tch of all time.

Not only does Manny suck and has to roid up, but his camp also has to pay off opponents to lose against him.

Yet with all that inside track info and genius intellect, Floyd still found a way to walk away from 40 Million Dollars!LOL

Well that's Jones' prerogative...dude was in a generous mood...51,000 paying fans watching in his stadium did made him feel like a million bucks many times over.

But I am still disappointed by Clottey's performance. It was underwhelming to say the least, but then again, stranger things have happened in the boxing universe.

Again it was Jones' decision to give him the bonus anyway. It's his loss (or gain).

LOL I can't believe people really believe Clottey threw this fight, and it furthermore shows that people genuinely don't follow Boxing.

Clottey didn't fight any different than he's fought in the past, he has a high guard and throughout his career has always been noted to "Not Go The Extra Mile", he clearly did that against Cotto. Every time he'd try to throw, Pacquiao would be throwing 3-4 punches in return. It got to the point where Clottey knew he'd get hit every time he throws whether or not his guard was up. If Clottey would've exchanged with him, Clottey would've been really hurt, hence why his output wasn't there. In comparison to the Cotto fight, when Clottey landed shots Cotto, Cotto evaded a bit which gave Clottey a better chance to keep landing. Pacquiao didn't let that happen.

Man, some of ya'll are starting to sound like Alex Jones. Maybe we can get some conspiracy theory DVDs floating around exposing Boxing's ties with the Illuminati.

lol, i kno a few ghanians. they aint thinkin of him as a king rite now...i tell u that much. just imagine pac would have done the same thing last nite. wait...nevermind, the pinoys wouldnt even care.

you just contradicted urself. sure these 'few' ghanians who might not even be boxing fans thatyou refer to wont, after that pathetic loss, who would? and im talkin about ppl back in ghana, not here or wherever you are.

[jimmykaba]

Clottey was offered 5x if hell lay down on the canvas (ala hatton)

[Tamis!]

I honestly think it's just Jerry Jones feeling ****y to give a mil more to Clottey coz of the overall gate attendance, and this comin' from how i hate Bob Scumbag Arum so if there's anyone who thought there's something fishy about it I'll be.

One more reason why?...

If this is all fixed, Lenny De Jesus won't go to the media and talk about Clottey not having balls to let his hands go with Pac. They ought to sing the same tune you know...

The fact remains that Clottey's a bum telling everyone that he didn't feel Manny's power, but clearly he got so afraid of the body punches he got all fight long he covered up or his head'll go off...and disrespected Lenny and didn't follow the fightplan just to diss Roach's "predictions".

People back in Ghana didn't care too much about Clottey in the first place. He was never a big star there; forget Azumah, he didn't have the kind of following Ike had either.

[Easy-E]

I think the issue with the extra pay was that is wasnt like Clottey made a fight out of it. He didnt show a ton of heart and fight to the finish and make an event out of the evening. I would support a bonus if that were the case. Instead he played D and barley won a round.

[OnePunch]

naah....jerry jones is actually a standup guy like that. Being from Texas and knowing jerry jones my whole life (not in person but of how he does business), I can tell you he is doing it for the bigger picture.

Him and Mark Cuban wanna make Cowboy stadium a mecca for sporting events. I heard they want the olympics there and a ****load of other events. With that said he has always done little stuff like that, because he knows in the end taht by taking care of people, he will actually build relationships with other big names and est. ties to get other huge events.

tell that to all the people whose homes he got the city of Arlington to take under "eminent domain" to build that stadium in the first place. See if THEY think he is a stand up guy. lol

[20LH20]

It is a bit fishy.

I was even wondering during the fight if Clottey wasn't throwing because someone had been in his ear prior to the fight. When he was throwing he was landing and I think he could have hurt Pacquiao if he had opened up and just went for it.
