    Cotto vs clottey 2

    If clottey can revamp his career at 154 would you like to see a rematch between the two? I thought it was a good fight.

        clottey gotta show that he will let his hands go and start stopping his opponents... then and only then will I even consider watching him. Then he's got to beat guys like cintron, pwill, etc... then I'll consider watching him against cotto.

        bottomline, he's gotta earn it...

          No he actually lost a close fight on points and a rematch would be a 50-50 type of fight. Why its not like the first fight was boring?

            Cotto knocked Clottey down with a jab. If Cotto beats Margarito, I think his confidence is going to be at an all time high. I think Cotto will beat Clottey in a rematch much more convincingly this time. And Clottey is who he is, he doesn't let his hands go alot because his chin is probably suspect.

            Guy just covers up in a shell. His brother chin has been exposed and I bet they both have the same punch resistance, thats why Clottey barely lets his hands go and really hates getting hit clean.

            I'd expect Cotto to win in a much more one sided fashion in the rematch. Clottey is smarter then his brother when it comes to defense but Clotteys offense is **** because he relies on his defense so much. He's a walking punching bag with a defense.

              Clotteys style has never changed, there's a reason for that. He can't take a punch. I don't understand why people don't get this. Why do people think he constantly covers up and barely lets his hands go?

              He doesn't do that for his health. He does it against the more elite fighters more so then non-elite fighters because elite fighters punch harder.

              Only two reasons could be the fact that Clottey doesn't let his hands go, he fears of being countered(afraid to be stopped), or he has stamina issues.

                I couldn't disagree more. Clottey has a very solid chin and imo the reason why he doesn't open up and throw like he should is that making weight takes so much out of him that he has to fight in spots and reserve energy.Even with his low work rate his accuracy,chin and defense make him a tough fight for anyone not named Pacquiao.
