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.
Originally posted by any craic lad? View PostIm a big Margo fan but Clottey was destroying Margarito in those first 4 rounds and it wasnt like the Cotto fight where Clottey decided to play safe and not let his hands go late he did hurt his hand against Tony maybe not as bad as first made out but enough for him to slow down his workrate and let Tony take over.I am usually critical of Manny but i have to say that Clottey is for me a very good winLast edited by Doctor_Tenma; 09-25-2011, 06:04 AM.

Not what I saw, I saw Clottey give Margarito the last two rounds by doing absolutely nothing.

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.
clottey was definitely a force in the WW division, and he will be a force at 154.
the fact that pacquiao dominated him, well did you ever stop and think that testifies more to MANNY's skill, speed, and stamina rather than clottey's lack thereof? Clottey HAS NOT been an easy fight for ANYBODY aside from Pac. . . nor will he be an easy fight for anybody at 154. . . that's all, thanks

I look forward to the Clottey move. I agree that he and Cotto have unfinished business and a rematch at 154 should be interesting. A fight with Canelo would be good also.
