    does anyone else think that this fight will end up like the Cotto fight? Clottey will lose a close D and complain that he got robbed. 2 things...

    1) Clottey doesn't punch enough to win this fight period!
    2) If clottey loses this fight he will not see a significant matchup for a long while. a must win for Clottey.

    Anyone really think Clottey can pull this out?

    No. I think Mosley has had ample time to relax and let his mind loose. He will be fresh and strong. Nazim will have him fully prepped I expect a late round stoppage with Clottey being very competitive early on... Mosley in my eyes is simply too much.

    Mosley is a very underrated puncher. He has proven to be an effective KO artist. Especially against a man who slows down the stretch.

    I think Mosley's in with a shout for a late TKO but if i had to put my house on it im going with a convincing Mosley UD , but Clottey will hit the canvas in this one cause as has been stated this isent going the same way as the Cotto fight Mosley is just to much

    Many here are delusional to think Mosley will stop Clottey. I'm curious would many of you still think Mosley will stop Clottey if Mosley never ko Margarito?

    You have to think? Mosley in reality has always faced the cream of the crop. He has consistently faced bigger opponents. At this stage of his life and career he sits perfect at welter. He has the speed and power to do anything he wants at the weight.

    He is facing a man who is inconsistent throughout a fight.

    Clottey is not active enough to be competitive with Mosley,I dont think this will be a close fight,Mosley is way faster then Clottey...Mosley 8-4

    this is a risky fight for mosely, especially at his age. clottey has something ro prove, especially feeling that he beat cotto. idk why mosely took this fight, a loss and its pretty much a wrap for him, no big money fights if he loses

    Not sure if Mosley will be able to KO him, but he wins. Clottey is solid, but he has never been overly impressive in my eyes.
