    I'm not hating on the guy, actually really like him as a very good boxer that comes up short often. But what do you (put the hatorade aside, fellas) think Clottey's defining moment would be if he retired today? Was it going the distance with Pac, almost beating Margarito before hurting his hand(s), beating Corrales, beating Judah, or cutting it close with Cotto? Where do you think we saw the best Clottey?

    I would say for me it was his almost defeat of Margarito.

    Kinda reminds me of that scene in Raging Bull where La Motta yells at Robinson, "You didn't knock me out. Ray, you didn't knocked me out."

    Eating two Pacman punches at the same time and not even flinching.

    Clottey's a decent fighter but he's not a matchwinner. He's good to test yourself against, will make you work hard, will make you think, but at the top level, his style simply isn't threatening enough.

    What he needs to do is to try and look over Hopkins best fights and figure out how to make small tweaks to his style in order to win fights instead of just seeing them through.
