    Clottey matches up pretty well with PBF actually

    Clottey can definately pull of the upset.

    he's patient
    he throws quick accurate shots in combinations and not wild, wide single punches
    he doesn't commit too much power to his punches therefore he doesn't telegraph them much
    he's physically imposing and has a good defense so he can cut the ring off without getting caught clean or hurt. It takes alot of pop to earn his respect.
    he picks his shots so he's not always leaving himself open for counters
    he has long reach (24") and a good, stiff jab
    he can lead with any punch in the book, not that predictable
    he breaks down if you force his workrate, but thats not something Floyd can do
