    I'd love to see Canelo vs. Andrade, but I don't know if Canelo wants to see anymore slick southpaws after Lara.

      Who really won the Cotto vs. Clottey fight? I never saw that one.

        If Clottey had come to fight in the 12th, he would have won. I couldn't believe he threw the fight away like he did. Shameful.

          this fight is gonna be Canelo vs Angulo 2........what's Clottey gonna do? he's not gonna outbox Canelo and he's not gonna counter Canelo nor use the ring to his advantage so what's he gonna do?

            Most people thought Clottey beat Cotto but in NYC on the eve of the Puerto Rican parade there was no way Clottey was going to get a close decision.


            And yea he didn't show up against Pac but he was fighting the best fighter on the planet at the time and he didn't even have his trainer with him so I give him a pass for that one.


            Anyway, WAR CLOTTEY!!! Clottey's a beast at 154!

              I gave it to cotto by slight edge. He did more work than clottey in the latter of the fight, cotto also had a kd in the 1st round. But that cut over the eye of cotto in the 3rd didnt help matters either.

                I see andrade winning the fight by decision cuz canelo still doesn't know how to cut off the ring.

                  Clottey is still very tough opponent for canelo. If canelo becomes the first guy to Ko clottey. It's gonna be a very impressive win for him.

                      Clottey is one of my favorite fighters, and I tend to agree that people have forgotten what he's capable of. I had my own questions about what he had left, but he looked great against Mundine. I didn't see any deterioration at all in him, and he looks really strong at the weight. A fight against Canelo would be really interesting.
