That's a bit like saying it's the woman's fault for getting raped because she's dressed in a skirt. You can't blame Clottey for agreeing to...
To be sure, this isn't directed specifically at Manny - this is for all championship bouts. And I think there's an even broader question here -...
Here's the problem. For a welterweight bout, yes there's nothing wrong with a catchweight fight as a matter of a private contract between two...
