Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View PostBy Mike Coppinger - Former welterweight champion Joshua Clottey has been incognito ever since his uninspiring effort against Manny Pacquiao in March 2010.
Rumors of his prolonged hiatus from the squared-circle ranged from being content with his hefty purse from the “Pacman” bout to not having the desire to train any longer.
For the first time since his loss to Pacquiao, Clottey spoke at length, breaking his silence of over 16 months, stating “I just wasn’t ready to answer questions before.”
Clottey, who was schedule to return in March versus Calvin Green before pulling out with a wrist injury, maintains he simply was taking some time off, waiting for the right fight to come along.
“I can fight at any time,” Clottey exclaimed. “My lawyer has been talking to Top Rank about me getting back in the ring, because you see I’m sick and tired of people calling me asking me, ‘When are you going to fight, when are you not going to fight?’ My fans worry about me, when I’m going to return to the ring… and I’m going to return to the ring.” [Click Here To Read More]
That was gentle.
LMAO at Bob Arum, wringing the life out of his " investments "
I couldnt care less if I never saw Clottey fight again.

Originally posted by Hisoka_ View PostFor one he was never a force in the WW division, I do admit that he was a solid win for Pacquiao, I said this right after Manny defeated him, even though stylistically Clottey never matched up well with Pacquiao. My thing is, it wasn't only one fight like most are saying, watch the Cotto and Margarito fight.

Originally posted by Hisoka_ View PostHe has the skill set to make serious noise at 154, but like always I expect him to fall short, this coming from someone who used to be a fan of Clottey
He had a close match with Marg, an EXTREMELY close match with Cotto and he put a whoopin on Zab Judah. Seemed like a serious contender to me.
