    “I know that Miguel Cotto is a good fighter, but if he tries to fight me with the same styles he has fought with other fighters, it is going to hurt him. I think the problem that I'm going to have tomorrow night is Cotto coming to the ring and actually fighting me. Look, I have no idea what style he is going to use against me. In his last fight he was very cool and calm. I don't know if that will work against me to be honest with you. But if he runs like he did against Margarito, then there is going to be a problem for him, because I'm not going to allow him to run away from me, you understand? Maybe he will come to trade punches.”

    translation to me is Im getting KTFO, he better consider that Cotto can bang I hope he leaves no room but for Cotto to bounce rockets off his head. Let him do this and he will get the beat down I want.

    Cotto can run and bounce around the ring like he did in the Margacheato fight but I doubt if he can do it for the whole 12 rounds... At some point in the fight, probably when Cotto got tired running/bouncing around, he will be forced to stand there and go toe-to-toe with Clottey... That's where Clottey will pick him up and hurt Cotto with fast stinging combos specially that uppercut...

    Well, if he loses, Top Rank won't have much use for him. Is he saying he can get a 'fair' decision or just Arum told him he could win so he took the fight. Out of context this one is hard to judge but sounds like a ***** move.

    It might sound like a joke but I am beginning to believe that too, he said another thing about possibly getting knocked out in another video too.

    Clottey is saying he doesn't want to be robbed again. He thought he beat AM, and was robbed, and he doesn't want to be robbed AGAIN.

    Clottey is talking a little a weird. But it doesn't matter, all that matters is his confidence in the ring. I like both fighters :(.
