    Cotto was a name I left out in my list of fighters who didn't give Manny credit. Cotto was an exception.

    it was his day off on the day of the fight.... but he still braved through those grueling 12 rounds.... a trooper I say. a warrior trooper.

    ROFL he just admitted he couldnt even win a round against an ordinary fighter. However his post fight interview at the post fight presser was to a different tune, where he stated pacquiao would give mayweather hell.

    Clottey played sparring partner.
    Basically --- a target.
    Good workout for Pac.

    Mayweather/Mosley much more than a workout.
    Mosley was dangerous every round.

    Clottey is just a **** up. He had a great chance to beat Margarito then slowed all down because of his hand when the opportunity was wide open right there. Then it was Cotto, he had him badly hurt numerous times but never followed up. The Pacquiao fight I don't even need to comment, he was just a heavybag and Pacquiao his self got bored in there throwing and landing at will and was taunting for anything to be thrown back at him. This is how Clottey is, don't expect any changes or improvements.

    Sums him up. He wasted chances most fighters would give an eye for.

    So did I. He complains after every single loss. The guy is pathetic. He throws damn near no punches and then cries about losing decisions.

    Why didn't Clottey just blame his socks, gloves, or bad shoes? Like Pacquiao did when he lost to Morales and Marquez. :deal

    TBF with clottey if you watch the early rounds and several moments in rounds on from that he did try to bust up clottey. In these moments he would either get hit with a counter or pacquiao would just unleash on him, forcing him into his defensive shell. You need great footwork to counter pacquiao and win.

    Pacquiao beat Clottey mentally before the fight even started. He got into Clottey's head so bad Clottey just wanted to survive the fight.

    Say what you want about it but the mental part of boxing is an important one. Throw in that same Clottey against guys like Mosley or Williams and he can give them hell.

    I think Clottey vs Cintron makes sense right about now. There is history between them and both have a hole they need to dig themselves out of.
