    One of the best fighter *to watch* in the sports in my opinion, and i think he deserves a rematch with Marg.

    Clottey's good. Remember - he only has loses to Baldomir and Margarito. I didn't see the Baldomir fight - but I think he was DQ'ed for something minor. And in the fight with Margarito - he was busting his ass - until he broke his hand. I think Clottey was the first to show that Margarito would have problems with a Boxer that is quick with his hands and feet.

    I think he gives any of the WW a good fight and would like to start seeing his name in the mix with the rest of them. I would love to see a rematch with him and Margarito.

    good fighter, huge for WW and amazing speed. His punching power seems to have vanished due to his weak hands.

    The guy has speed and skills . . . but I doubt his fighting heart. I need to see more of him for me to make a good impression of him.

    Clottey is very good, my only worry is that he's been bulking up recently and it's affecting his sharpness and stamina. Other than that nice well rounded fighter, that can fight inside or outside, dirty, tough, solid defence, decent hand speed with enough power to make himself respected as well.

    A solid boxer who would give any WW some problems.

    Got overrated so much that now some people are resisting the hype so much they are underrating him now.

    I think he can be a titlist one day and he is a decent fighter.

    Good solid fighter..good chin...good defense..fast hands...accurate .....very very good combination puncher.....flaws..stamina...goes into his shell too much.....not that much power for his size and physicality.

    Clottey and Williams are the avoided fighters now in the WW division. Now that Margarito got beat it seems people are calling him out now. Clottey's beatdown on Corrales was so bad i had to erase it from my Tivo.
