    miracle shot at a legendary champion, hungry as ****, solid, I KNOW pac will win, but im beguining to wonder if I picked him with my heart or my brain, cuz im arguing with myself...the only thing I CANT stop getting off my head is CLOTTEY loooooves to shoot that lead, strong, straight cross that never missed JUDAH..I noticed that CLOTTEY loves that weapon against southpaws and as big as he is, in the past, he blew up from 147 to 155 overnight in fight night..why do the words UPSET keep beating into my brain's face????:huh

    Freddie just said Pacquiao is looking his best ever, not having sex with japanese girls and not training.

    Plus, Clottey has no close family members who died to whom he can dedicate this fight.

    Kidding aside, this is it. The training that is. Pacquaio is, as always, focused on this fight. He is confident, but not taking Clottey lightly.

    Clottey is a very tough *******, very durable. He has his limitations but he won't be a walk in the park. And an upset is very possible.

    Right hand lead is a great weapon against a southpaw but with mediocre speed and power it won't do much damage to an elite opponent. You have to have power to wield a great sword. I don't know why people get defensive when someone brings up the Tyson/Douglas comparison. The whole point in that comparison is to indicate there is a small chance Clottey will win which is true. Anyone who denies that must think Pac is completely unhuman or invincible.

    I was just watching Trinidad's run from De la Hoya to Hopkins recently and for some reasons the flashbacks I get from this Pacquaio vs. Clottey fight aren't of Douglas Tyson rather of Trinidad Hopkins.

    I favor Manny, I expect him to win but for some reason I think Clottey is going to do better than Cotto, Hatton, De le Hoya and Diaz. I think he may make Manny work hard this time. I could be wrong and I hope I am because I want the superfight with Floyd but its just a weird feeling I got.

    Well, you never know. You never know. But then again, Pacquiao isn't nearly as unfocused as Tyson was leading up to the Douglas fight...at least I don't think he is. Who knows? But if Pac was bullshitting, or not looking sharp, I don't think Roach would bite his tounge in saying it.

    yep.

    Clottey is one strong mean son of a *****. He has a shot no doubt. If Pac is flat he will be in for a long night.
     
  14. If Clottey was 40-1, trust that I would lay at least a grand on him. But, he's not.
