Originally posted by boxing is alive View PostLook, I'm not saying that this is some sort of ATG or career defining victory for Pac, but people just tend to sweep this one under the rug as if Pac beat some sort of cab driver. Clottey was a huge welterweight (rehydrating to 170lbs I believe). He gave everybody problems in the division. He was on his way to beating Margarito before he broke his hand, beat Judah & Corrales, and lost a very debatable decision to Cotto that many felt he won (I personally thought Cotto won, but have no problem with people saying otherwise). Pac completely shut him out. It was a good, solid victory for him. Nothing special, but certainly not a joke of a victory that people make it out to be.
***in before "Clottey took a dive."***
Whether you think Clottey is great is another topic altogether though. And we know hes no slouch so doesnt need discussing.

Remember Pac's face was more busted up so that means Clottey actually won the fight
Seriously though, I really don't know what to make of this fight still and Clottey has said some weird things regarding the fight. Perhaps it is just a language thing, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was more to it since this is still boxing after all.
