    Clottey's shambolic performance against Pac has really blinded people to how good the guy was. Sure, he managed to fight find a way to f-ck it up in big fights but he takes cares of Guerrero and Alexander handily.

      as much hate as victor gets he was still looked at as 1 of the top young fighters at the time and aydin was undefeated and the 1 ranked at the wbc ad no one is making aydin out to be a superstar but a win over him at the time for guerrero was a betterwin than anything clottey did especially since i don't even think clottey was the underdog against zab

        Berto has heart, great speed and power... But more than anything, Heart... Berto could wear him down.

        It would be a much better fight though, either way.

            Witter/Urango/Kot/Maidana > Anything Zab has done

            He is by far a more worthy, credible, durable opponent than Zab, and it would be ranked as a greater win than Zab.
            The decision against Kotelnik was a gift, if Alexander hadn't been a hbo darling and Kotelnik hadn't been 'just another' European fighter Alexander's belts would have been gone, I'm pretty sure that WBC and IBF strap were ****ing wrapped and ribboned

              People are forgetting clottey was schooling margarito until he hurt his left hand. Clottey > guerrero and alexander. He had a cool style too. He just happened to throw the pac fight which really hurt his credibility. He beat cotto too that decision was bull****.

                That is for sure. Berto can take an ass whooping and still keep coming which could (more than likely) destroy Zab's mental game. However I still think Zab back then beats the best version of Berto. Today, Berto's heart alone beats Zab.

                  He was competitive against margarito, even if you don't think he won he was competitive against cotto, I don't see either of them two performing as well as he did

                    crazy how great people make clottey out to be for acomplishing nothing but to say clottey will beat such and such is hard to say when clottey has lost all his important fights except against zab who also losses in big fights.

                    what is this about anyway?t discredit floyd like always?remeber those can marquez beat clottey,shane or cotto post/threads most felt like those fighters might be to big for marquez but that didn't make a difference marquez was still able to put pacquiao to sleep

                      he lost 2 fights where it looked like he should of easily won how can someone get so much credit for losing fights that it looks like he should have won?he is the one that for some strange reason stops punching and loses fights like the cotto and margarito fights
