Right mate!
You know how Buboy screamed all fight long: "....yan sige, sontokin mo sa baleeeekaaaat!!!..."
I just don't see this fight exposing anything but Clottey just pussied out, and got a huge payday.Comment

You don't get it, yeah..imagine if a guy like Clottey opened up that night? There goes his defense. Everytime you punch you are open yourself.
Mosley would get stopped in 6, Mayweather....i'm not sure - he's got quicker feet than Clottey and quicker hands but he's definently not as strong.
Cotto tried opening up twice and got dropped, almost koed in the 4th.
I do agree that there are some things in the Clottey fight that showed Pacquiaos weakness. That's his defense. Pacquiao never get's hurt but he loses pts and could get cut if he eats to many punches being careless.
I also think that Clottey's defense that night was better than Mayweathers. Reason being: he was there to survive, there was next to 0 openings the way Clottey was fighting. Mayweather was tagged in his last fight, but his defense is more scientific, not as bullet proof but it allows Mayweather to counter punch back - which could be good...and bad.Last edited by them_apples; 07-03-2010, 12:35 PM.Comment
