    1) Clottey dosn't look like a guy that gains alot of weight between fights, but what do you figure he walks around at? 165? 170?... more?

    2) How much do you think he will weigh on fight night?

    3) Anybody know what he weighed in the ring vs Cotto?

    4) How tall is he?

    I'm just wondering... He looks like a pretty big dude to me. :yikes

    Clottey barely makes 147...every time he weighs in he has to do it naked haha...he gains a lot of weight overnight too...

    I don't have an accurate number of what he walks around at, but I have seen him at a couple fights and he seemed to keep himself in good condition.

    Clottey is a heavy welter.

    Clottey walks around just above 170.

    and when he rehydrates, he gets back close to that weight. Somewhere in the upper 60's...

    He is a big welterweight. If it wasn't for his short height (5'8"), he'd be a middleweight.

    His walk around weigh is 170

    Fight nights he is 160.


    All you got to do is look at the guy, he is built like a brick shithouse

    I think he'll come in above 160. Against Corrales, Showtime unofficially weighed him on fight night at 170 pounds, although the agreed upon weight for the official weigh-in was 149 (which is still 21 pounds of rehydration).

    pacquiao is definitely the real deal, but if he beats clottey in a great fight, he's undoubtedly an all time great in my eyes. clottey will be a much greater threat to manny than a post margarito cotto could ever be. I think 2010 is what makes or breaks manny's all time great status.

    Cottey has a good defense and is bigger than Cotto. I just dont see how Manny will look good against him. If he catches Manny it might be lights out for sure.

    Clottey and Cotto are comparable in size. It's Clottey's durability that will make the difference here.

    Clottey is a spot fighter..... Dangerous in those spots, but a spot fighter.. Manny can go on all day... This fight could look like the first few rounds of Clottey/Judah....

    And yeah, Clottey is big for that weight...

    Clottey is not even close to a big puncher. He landed everything but the kitchen sink on Corrales and he still finished the fight.
