    So what happened to this so called body attack against a limited Margorito??? You guys always bring that up but I'm failing to see it....There is no doubt in my mind that if a limited skilled fighter in Margorito was able to take away Cotto's body attack a defensive guru in Clottey will neutralize that body attack that you claim.

    No unification for Cotto vs Clottey, Clottey has been stripped of his IBF world championship.

    Nonetheless its going to be a great match up --

    I'm going with Clottey by late rounds stoppage, but this could be an easy fight for Cotto.

    I know that Cotto doesn't like to be dominated and given his change in trainers into training camp.

    I see Clottey putting on the pressure, and closing the gap between the two, and forcing Cotto to fight more and box less.

    This fight will be decided by one thing. COTTO'S TRAINING!! A 100% Cotto should not have problem with Clottey. But training is not looking good so far.

    Any version of Cotto gets his ass tatooed by Clottey.

    Don't start making excuses already, bro.

    Cotto started his training in Tampa already and assured everyone that he will be in top shape and is focused on
    Clottey and nothing else.
    Also, that he will come home a victor.

    So, lets not use the training as an excuse....especially if Cotto isn't.

    Cotto gets KO'd by everyone now apparently :lol::-(

    Because apparently throwing 1000+ punches and the ability to take an accurate amount of something as staggering as 65% power shot connection rate from someone who has power behind their shots is done by "limited" fighters :verysad

    Cotto UD. It'll be somewhat like Cotto Mosley in terms of scoring. Some people will argue that Clottey won because they hate Cotto, but it'll be a clear cut but close victory for Cotto.

    I think if Corrales, a former lightweight, is brave enough to get into a phonebooth fight with Clottey and not be KO'd or even KD...I don't see how he'll get Cotto's respect.

    This will be similar to Williams vs. Wright. Clottey will have his accurate moments, but Cotto will be throw hard combinations on him all night to keep him closed up. Cotto will have all hard fought rounds.

    Clottey's best chance is to not trade much in the beginning and hope that Cotto gases out trying to knock him out and fails without preserving enough juice to finish the fight.

    If thats Clottey's best chance, then it doesn't look to good for him....Cotto is training like a mad man in Tampa and assured
    everyone he will be in the best shape of his life.
    I see a UD for Cotto....if Clottey slips up he could go down with a body shot.

    Dont you ever again let me see you committing the blasphemy of comparing Cotto Paul Williams.:fire

    Other than that, you have good points.:D

    Clottey in 10. Cotto will gas and fall victim to an uppercut.

    The limited Margo has the exact style to beat Cotto, throw punch after punch after punch,

    and Cotto never threw a body shot not because he couldn't but because Margo's face was open all the time, i mean you see a guy walking toward you with no defense, would you hit his body or face?
