    he is a b level fighter, everytime he is in a close fight or everytime he loses he uses his hands as an excuse, funny how when he beats on bums his hands are 100%

    mayweather schools him

    paul williams beats his ass

    shane mosley knocks him out

    cotto decapitates him.

    I have only seen him in one fight get his hands hurt and that was agianst margarito. And that was a legit excuse for him losing. He was owning Antonio, he stopped throwing the left hand in the middle of the fight, he lost the fight. His stock actually went up on that fight more than anything despite losing 'officially'. I still think he beats marg on the rematch with more ease than before. And he beats everyone except the pretty boy too. Including Cotto.

    how many margarito fights have you seen? margarito always starts off slow, usually from the 6th round he gets going.

    Agreed except for Cotto, I think Clottey puts him to sleep...

    joshua will win some rds and he will have his monments, this will be tough for cotto, watch and see.joshua is not a guy you fight for a tune up, dont mean he gone win but hes more then a tune up.

    Clottey is a good fighter and would give most of the Welterweights problems.

    He's only had 2 loses.

    One to Margarito - after he hurt his hand.

    One to Baldomir - on a DQ and he was winning this fight.

    Other than that - he's been holding his own.

    Yea well to be honest i think it is a conspiracy by Margarito's fans. They overhype Cottey to make their man's win againts him even more impressive...:deal

    hell joshua has one of the best uppercuts at welter weight, and thats the punch cotto is open for the most.uppercut straight up the middle, zab sowed that but did not stick with it and shane used it a little bit.but thats a punch clottey sticks with in his fights, cotto is open for thst punch quite often.

    He is a good fighter, stop hating. He will also beat Kermit Cintron as well.

    Clottey is a solid welterweight, but he sure as hell wouldn't beat Mayweather, Cotto, or Williams.

    He ****ed up his hand in 1 fight. What everytime he loses are you talking about?? He has 2 loses and ones by DQ.

    Oh and no one is knocking him out his chin is a rock.

    Clottey KO Cotto
