    It's already on Top Rank's facebook page, so yes, it is happening.

    It's your burden to prove Manny has taken any sort of banned substances. Until you prove that, I'm sorry sir, but you are just spreading rumors that aren't true.

    Since Manny has never tested positive, you are spreading more slander which caused the original lawsuit.

    Clottey would be a very challenging fight, I would love to see it.

    I dont think there is any way Clottey gets stopped, he is too tough and his defense is too good. I think Pac's speed and activity will be a problem though and Pac will pull out a UD but I dont think Clottey will get seriously hurt or dropped. I see Pac staying on the outside using his speed and angles but being more cautious and picking his shots carefully. I think he will avoid trying to trade on the inside with clottey because his strength and defense will be too much and he would be taking too many counters.

    :lol: And cotto clottey was a mismatch too, oh wait....

    Pac stopped Cotto at the end of the fight but he is going to destroy Clottey who has a far better defense?

    I am shocked that roach would agree to this. Personally, I don;t think he's that stupid.

    Maybe they just stopped listening to Roach all together because he also agreed to the 5 day testing window.

    Pacquaio would anhilate Clottey.

    Superior size and strength are not enough to beat Manny.

    I like Clottey a lot, but he's slow, cumbersome, easy to hit and not particularly busy.

    Clottey is a very sturdy welterweight, this is a tough fighter for anyone to take on.
    If he had a larger personality, he would be a star. Hard to be a really nice guy when people are dodging you and not giving you credit though.

    Its a good fight if we cant have Pac/Mayweather.
    A lot better than Floyd vs M. Hatton anyway. (God I hope thats just a stupid rumour)
