Clottey v. Gutierrez: predictions and analysis

[amagnin]

I haven't seen too much of these guys and wanted to get opinions on the fight. I have seen Clottey a few times, and he looks like a solid prospect. He was DQ'd versus Baldomir... does anybody know what the DQ was for and how was the fight going?
I haven't seen Gutierrez but he looks fairly untested against superior competition. What do people know about him? I think Clottey by later round TKO/KO.

Clottey was dominating the fight but was DQ'ed w/o any warning. I believe he hit Baldi low but was pitching a shut-out. Baldi said that he'd never fight Clottey again; I think because he knows he'd lose if they rematched.

No warning? How devastating a low blow was it? That doesn't seem fair... was the fight in Argentina?

If Trinidad isn't DQ'd for what he did to Vargas after that knockdown I don't see how anybody else could be DQ'd for hitting low.

Even Zab's Judah's low blow against PBF didn't get him DQ'ed so I don't know what happened.

Maybe Baldomir couldn't continue and therefore they had to call the fight?

i give clottey a shot at beating 90 percent of the division.. hes built like a rock and punches pretty hard.. i cant see him outclassing anyone with skills tho..

For instance if he were to challenge for a title who would you put him up against... who wouldn't you put him up against?

I agree completely with you. I've been saying the same thing for about a year now.
