    Clottey's propensity to weather his opponent's attack while tucked in a defensive posture will hurt him more than ever against the offensive wizardry of Manny Pacquiao.

    I literally see Pac boxing circles around Clottey on his way to a one-sided UD.

    Clottey will put up a good fight for da first 6 rounds, then he will gas out as he always does n Pac will be all over him and Clottey will get his ass stop for da first time.

    Your cousin Antonio couldn't come close to doing it. What makes you think Pac will?

    Lol, Clottey almost took a knee when he was getting beat in da corner by Margo i belive it was da 9 round, after that Clottey decided to get on his bike and saved himself for getting stopped. :yep as for Pac, come on man he's 5x better 10x faster n 3x stronger than Margo (even with plasters on) you do the math. :good

    Shouting for Clottey because he is the underdog and I like the guy. I think Pac is too skilled and too quick for him though.

    That is an asinine logic there.

    I really can't see Clottey getting his ass kicked by Pacquiao. Clottey has underrated footwork, and Pacquiao has changed over the years, but his one flaw that he continues to have is that he can't block a right hand lead to save his life. Clottey will do his best to keep Pacquiao in the pocket and fire his right hand lead which will hammer Pacquiao. Clottey will apply smart pressure on Pacquiao and make it a very rough and tough fight for Pacquiao. Pacquiao will win no doubt (unless Clottey KO's him, but that is very unlikely) but Pacquiao is in for the fight of his life.

    Clottey's high guard will be effective, but body punches by pac (which he was practicing for this fight imo) would slow clottey by the 8th round. Either pac wins by UD 9-3 or clottey succumbs to pacs relentless attack by the 10th.
