Do people forget that Cotto barely squeaked by Clottey?

    Actually I thought Clottey won that fight but only because Cotto had a bad cut.

      You conveniently forget this.
      Margarito fought with a sprained ankle and beat him more convincingly than Cotto did.

        Yes and thats not a bad thing.

        Clottey is a top welterweight. He hadn't been beaten clearly until he fought Pacquiao who was a bad matchup for him stylistically.

        Clottey can beat anyone other top welterweight besides Pacquiao and Mayweather.

        He has the ability to beat Mosley, Berto, etc imo.

          Margarito can average 100 punches a round.

          Cotto can not. He hasn't got the stamina to do so. Margarito didn't have to fight with one eye for 10 rounds either.

            Real talk but Clottey beats Berto and I could see him possibly pulling an upset and beating Mosley.
            Clottey is not, and has never been, a top WW. He is an average fighter who's best win is over a terribly faded Zab Judah. In fact, that's his only win.

              oh wow, clottey was just too damn scared to end up like Cotto or even Hatton, so he threw zero punches and went to clottey mode. c'mon he was so afraid to death he was just about ****ting in his pents and I like Clottey.

              Cotto fought him, he got dropped.so what. he stood up and continued fightin.

              Clottey is a badass everyone knows this, but he never ever will win against an elite fighter like Berto, Mosley (lol) and others.

              to da topic: just two words: one eye, ONE EYE get over it.

                Don't even bother. He's an unabashed hater. Either that or he's just simply not very intelligent. Either way, it's a waste of time.

                  Forgot he dominated Diego Corrales? Ok so Diego was out of his division, but Clottey gives ANY top WW problems. His style is meant for it. Only fighters that want to face the best and don't care have faced Clottey if you haven't already realized that. Cotto, Judah, Corrales, Pacquiao. All of them have a reputation for facing anyone put infront of them. They all faced Clottey. Most wouldn't.

                    Clottey blamed his loss to Pac on having the ****s. And people really believe his hand was injured against Margo?

                      And a serious wrist injury. Margo almost pulled out of the Clottey fight do to both those injuries.
