    clottey will only throw if he is in range or sees openings. Clottey is not light on his feet so when will he ever find the opening? Floyd is going to pot shot with ease to a stationary target in a very boring fight.

    This.

    Worst matchup possible. Everytime I evaluate Manny's record and have to mention his stinkfest against Clottey, the only redeeming quality is that at least Manny tried his best and Floyd would look a thousand times more boring.

    Floyd wouldn't go to new places. He wouldn't up his punch output or nothing. He would move, move, move, push the jab again and again and everytime Clottey finds a way out of his guard he'd throw a lead right and that's it.

    Baldomir all over again, but Mayweather will be more cautious because Clottey can punch.

    CLottey is a type of fighter that Pac should fight to make it exciting but it was still boring.

    Should have left it at 'again' because Clottey's punching power is pathetic for a man of his build.

    I'd expect Floyd to clearly win. But not as dominating as Pac did. Floyd would do just enough to win the rounds.

    Mayweather wins easily punishing Clottey with precision and aggression more than Pacquiao did, who landed only 20% of the 1200+ punches he threw.

    I started thinking about the fight and was about to comment, then the next thing I knew, I fell asleep. Weird.

    i think it would be an all out war with mayweather getting a last gasp ko. clottey's aggressiveness would be his downfall
