    Great post, and I totally agree.

    Clottey's best 4 rounds of his life, apparently, were the ones that came before he was shut out for 8 straight rounds by Margo.

    Boy, I certainly overrated him. He isn't anywhere near as good as I thought, at least after what I saw tonight. He looked lost and amateurish at times.

    Clottey vs Cotto=2 fights-Cotto UD in 1st first(controversal) Clottey Tko in 2nd fight.
    Clottey vs Margarito=Clottey UD
    Clottey vs Mosley= Mosley UD
    Clottey vs Berto= Clottey KO in 10

    In a rematch against Margo I think Clotty would do very well,I do not see Clotty bending to Antonio's aggression but I do see Margo doing enough to the body of Clotty with those body shots he throws at different angles and that would force Josh to fight back but in the end I think Margarito outworks Clotty for the juges decision..Andre Berto would be a good matchup two very strong fighters but I give the notch to Clotty.down the stretch I think Berto would punch himself out and leave himself open and be stopped in the 11th or 12th round..I do not see Clotty beating Cotto because Josh likes to counter punch and he fights off his defense and I believe Miguel punching power to the body would break down Clotty's defense and Cotto would win a unamious decision,Clotty vs Mosley I would say Shane because Josh would not be able to push Shane back and his Jab is not consistant enough to hold Mosley off him So Sugar Shane Ud.
