Comments Thread For: Clottey: I Need Canelo Fight To Erase Pacquiao Loss!

[JJRod]

no fighter is scared of any other. but alvared absolutely does'nt have the confidence to get in there with clottey. clottey's style poses serious danger and could've derailed the cotto vs alvared fight. there's no injury. the pressure of failing caught up with him.

So he has the confidence to fight Trout before a Mayweather fight, and fight Lara, but he lacks confidence with Joshua Clottey?
Common man! We're talking about Joshua I do just enough to lose a fight Clottey here.

The guy would have approached the Canelo fight the same way he did Pacquiao. By shelling up letting Canelo tee off on him, and collecting his paycheck.

Clottey once said that he couldnt make 147 anymore and the only reason he took the fight was for the money,this guy has been done for a while, so he beats a nearly 40 year old mundine so what

yes they are. they are human beings not superheroes. also check the margarito-floyd video for proof that fighters get scared.

Theres no reason for Canelo to be scared, when the fear kicks in you just make him ...

1.Wear Pillows.
2.Big ring.
3.Choose a ref to bail you out.
4.Clinch for your life.

and you got this, easy work.

Sorry to break it to you, but some fighters are absolutely scared of other fighters. That's not the case here, but it is true sometimes.

Foreman admitted he was downright scared of Frazier.

Spinks admitted he feared Tyson.

Ali admitted Liston scared him.

I mean, do people think boxers aren't human beings? Some human beings fear other human beings, especially if people want them to get in a boxing ring and get punched by that human being. Those are legends who actually stepped in the ring with fighters they admitted fear of. You think there aren't fighters who fear a fighter and won't step in the ring with him? Come on, it's common sense.
