    Clottey outlanded amd out threw Cotto in their fight.


    This is pure myth.

    You don't need any numbers to see that, I thought he won clear but close. I think many gave it to cotto out of sympathy after his bad luck with plaster and cuts, and maybe also because some felt clottey didn't go for it. It doesn't matter though, cause I thought he won despite this.

    Clottey/Cotto was one of those fights where the average fan wouldn't have understood why Cotto was given the decision. Sitting there and watching, Clottey appeared to win the fight. There were 4 or 5 rounds that Clottey clearly won compared to 2-3 for Cotto. The other 4-5 rounds were very close and could have gone either way.

    The fact that Clottey didn't "go for it" doesn't mean ****. he outlanded Cotto, and landed the better punches, and was the aggressor for most of the fight.


    He knows it. Cotto knows it. And Bob Arum knows it. He will get his revenge on Bob Arum on March 13th.

    And they went the way they did solely based on where the fight took place.


    If that fight had been in almost any other venue, Clottey would have walked away the winner.

    pac doesn't need to fight backwards. he needs to move laterally.

    I expect this fight to be frustrating to Pacman like the Agapito Sanchez fight. Just wait until Clottey hits him with a few headbutts. Should be fun.

    Nope, us diplomats get AFN (Armed Forces Network) channels and they're garbage. Boxing is non-existant, only high profile fights are shown. They didn't even show Cotto vs. Margarito! :-(

    Clotty has a good chin but he was in trouble in the 6th round against Cotto.

    Saying that I believe Pac will not KO Clotty and that he could possibly break his hands on Clotty's hard head, by the late rounds this could be interesting as Pac will be totally out of gas and with hurt hands against an oncoming bull like Clotty. I think Pac will have enough early rounds in the bag to win by UD though even as he runs in the final rounds.

    Clottey was not in trouble. Not in the least little bit. After he gave Cotto about 30 free shots, he just simply shook his head and told Cotto... "Quit playin"


    From that point on, Cotto ran like a ***** the entire time.

    And you wonder why his bum ass lost that fight.

    And Clottey was just a ball of fire throwing punches in bunches, combinations and effortless power shots.

    I remember how great he looked when he...faded down the stretch again.

    Didnt Cotto knock him down with a jab? Pac will wear him down and stop him around the 8th or 9th round.
