Worst excuse EVER given for losing a fight!

Clottey on losing to Pacquiao:

Joshua Clottey Blames His Performance on Diarrhea

"When I ate after the [weigh-in] I was 'running;' the midnight I went to toilet almost like four times; in the morning I went to toilet almost like three times; when we went to the dressing room I went to toilet like three times," he explained.

I have to agree with this one. I really liked Clottey, but his performance in that fight followed by his excuse made me lose nearly all respect for him.

Direct quote:

"At the time I didn't see it like that. But if I win the fight, everybody would have given the glory to Roy Jones Sr.," he says. "That's all anybody would have talked about. No glory would have gone to God or myself or the guy (Merkerson) that got me there. Would that have been right?"

Yeah, that's the quote. Where's the one where he says he lost on purpose so his father wouldn't get props?

He never said that ****. Tito had the best excuse and didn't use it. 911

you're right...cuz hopkins wouldn't have been effected by 911?

Ok, he didn't use the word "purpose", but we can all see what he was trying to say.
He's pretty much trying to say that he lost because he didn't want to win and have his father receive credit. Or that he's happy he lost just so his father doesn't get any credit.

yes he did. look it up.

even 9/11 woulda been a ****** excuse cause it would've affected Hopkins a lot more considering Hopkins is actually American. ****** pendejo.

There's a few that can make the top of the list, but I think Roy Jones excuse for losing to Tarver ha
s to be the absolute worst.

"I lost on purpose so that my father didn't get any credit for a win"

OMG

Do you know what question he was answering? I didn't think so.

[Agent Mulder]

Not wanting to hurt Shane - Sergio Mora

ding ding.....we have a winner

that has to be the worst excuse EVER!!!

[GRANDSLAM]

Why are u in such denial? Either that, or you're ignorant to the fact that he actually did say that. Just ask Reed. He'll tell ya!

Who's Reed?, I hope Roy never said that.
