    Clottey's in the wrong sport, he should have gone into football because the only thing the guy knows how to do well is block.

        Clotteys a tool man. He proved that Satuday. I was standing up yelling at Pacquiao to beat his ass. He should be ashamed the way he fought.

          after a few rounds , i thought pac would slow down.

          he didn't though.

          thinking pac would slow down is a sound theory but he should have realized it wasn't gonna happen halfway through the fight and he should have changed his gameplan. or at least tried to change.

          you have to dare to be great. clottey just wouldn't dare.

            Dean its one thing to have a bad night. Its another to do absolutely nothing but stand and cover up man. That was not the gameplan DeJesus told him to fight back. Clottey refused. Thats not the heart of champion. Manny, Steward and Kellerman all said that.

              I take the view that Clottey was going to paid a huge amount of money whatever happened, but didn't he owe it to the 50,000+ people that bought tickets and the millions who bought PPV and the fans that supported him to do more than just try and survive to collect his pay packet. His big chance and he didn't even try to win.

                Clottey's too slow. Speed kills, and Clottey knew he'd have to take three punches while throwing one single bomb. Clottey's def is good when he covers up, but he's vulnerable when throwin a combo cause he lacks movement. Mismatch after all, or better said, just another handpicked victim that never had a real chance.

                  I like that quote at the end of the day thats what it is. Pac came in there to win. Clottey came to survive. Pac was begging him to do something he got punked out and got his card pulled.

                    Clottey had only one gameplan and that was survival. He didn't want to fight. If he knew anything about Manny it would be that he has incredible stamina, the chances of him slowing down by Clottey doing nothing is ludicrous. I don't buy it for a moment.

                      even people who have great stamina slows down.
