    Cotto, AM & Clottey are all promoted by Arum(Top Rank).

    Arum has placed Clottey on the backburner to focus on Cotto & AM.

    Now that Cotto & AM have lost their belts, Clottey is the only Top Rank WW that has a belt.

    Clottey is coming off a win over a notable opponent.

    With Clottey's recent calling for Paul Williams & AM, on top of that Baby Kermit deciding to back out of his deal to face Clottey, Clottey has gotten a rep as "the most feared man in boxing".

    I think this is Josh's breakthrough, unfortunately it had to come after all of this, but this is his breakthrough.

    What do you guys see happening with Josh Clottey from here on out?

    I would be perfectly content with Clottey running **** in the welters. He deserves it. He also deserves new management and promotions who will not put him on the backburner when he is clearly the best fighter in their stable.

    Hard for him to get the fights. Arum doesn't give one **** about him.

    Man, sometimes while I'm scrolling down, I'll forget my avatar, and I'll just read the post, and I'll be ready to quote it, and then I'll see that the poster was me. LoL.

    But Arum doesn't care about giving his fighters the best careers possible, he's focused on making money. If Arum was smart, how come he didn't promote PBF the right way, how come PBF made his biggest paydays when he left Top Rank?

    Good fighter who sits on the bench while two overhyped mofo's get all the attention. On top of that, he'd whip both of those dudes.

    :lol:


    For Arum and Clottey..

    Arum back when he was trying to set up Margo to fight for a title but he would have to vacate it to fight Cotto. He was saying he was looking out for Clottey..

    Clottey does an interview later that week and says he hasn't spoken to Arum since before his last fight and that was like 5/6 months prior :rofl

    Cotto/Margarito II is still happening maybe he gets the winner eventually. Berto might have that Collazo rematch. Mosley wants a bigger fight. Quintana might not stay @147. Clottey will most likely fight mandatory. He should vacate like Williams and move to 154.
