A thread for those who actually enjoyed the Pac v Clottey fight.

I enjoyed the fight too. As a matter of fact, I think it was a great fight. People need to give some credit to Clottey. he didn't make the mistake of going toe to toe against Pacman and he did land some flush counter straights and uppercuts.

 

i like it.clottey dancing was gas

 

you've got some pretty low standards to qualify this fight as entertaining.

 

Clottey's walk to the ring was without a doubt the highlight of the night, the fight was alright I guess, nothing special...

 

I enjoyed the fight. Not the same way as Pac's last 4 fights, the bar is too high to match those other 4 or so fights of him. But compare to most elite fights, it's not that bad.

- like the ring entrance, girls singing US anthem, clottey dance
- laughed so loud in round 4's double punch to the ears by Pac
- laughed so loud at Lampley's bang bang bang
- 1250 punches thrown by a fighter, helluva work rate for full 12 rounds
- Intriguing boulder granite solid defense of Clottey - hands covering head and body. A solid chin on top of that.
- some exchanges are interesting, like clottey had his uppercut moments
- there's atleast 5 punch combos (clean shots to the body) thrown by Pac every round.

The whine about fight being boring is due to Clottey feels like attending Pac's 12-round boxing clinic course. In my opinion, it's more of Clottey seldomly find the right opportunity to open up and exchange more, add to the fact that he's a naturally low workrate type of boxer. Pac being infront of him, worsen that.

 

I enjoyed the fight as well. It was an amazing display from pound for pound king Pacquiao. During the course of the fight I kept thinking how amazing it was that all those Mexican featherweights lasted as long as they did against Pacquiao when he can batter big strong welterweights around the ring like this.

 

Get used to the "bad-mouthing"...as long as Pac continues to call out Floyd Mayweather, this is the reaction you're going to hear when Pac has a successful outing. Oh well...It was a great performance by the Filipino badass, and not even the most diehard of Floyd's fans are going to say anything to change that.

Floyd fans need to move on, because their fighter will never fight this version of Pac. Mark my words, this fight will never happen. As much as they don't want to hear this, it's the truth: Floyd is just as responsible, for "the fight" not happening, as pac is...that is the truth.

 

He threw 399 punches over 12 rounds. Just thiunk about what I just said for a while.

 

Floyd fans need to start worrying about Shane Mosley because the money train gets derailed this May!

 

some of my friends who are used to pacquiao stopping opponents thinks this is a boring fight. but i think it is quite entertaining. pacquiao trying to solve the puzzle of clottey's defense by trying to bombard him with shots at all angles and position, going upstairs and downstairs. even trying to hit clottey's guard if clottey would buckle. also clottey's pinpoint accurate jabs had trouble pacquiao for some stretches in the fight. pac used to spar with penalosa before so he is not new to someone who has tough turtle-like defense.

 

So you complain about people bad-mouthing Manny, then you bad-mouth Floyd in the same breath... Trust me Floyd gets it just as bad, so calm down, that's just the price of being at the top...

 

This thread is almost as bad as the fight. FAIL!
