How much credit should Pac get for beating Clottey?

:huh

But that is how Clottey fights ALL THE TIME!!! Pacquiao just didn't let him have a chance to open up.

 

Thanks for the kind words: I try to he objective when it comes to any fighter mate, I deal with quality of opposition :good

 

Yep, you're the ONLY person on here who is a boxing purist :yep

 

Kos, Clottey doesn't fight like that all the time...the style is the same, but his output is generally significantly higher than on saturday night. The whole event looked like a glorified spar to me with there only ever going to be one winner, everyone including both fighters knew that. Pac gets no credit whatsoever off me for that, but then again I won't give credit to cheats of any kind :deal

 

yeah I thought that was a bit odd as well

 

Thats pretty sad mate...you forgot to switch accounts before making your response :-(

 

Yep, everyone (apart from those wanting Pac to lose) knew he was going to be beat, but I give him that bit of credit for dominating his opponent like no-one has before. And you could say his output was lower than normal because Pac didn't let him have many opportunities to get any shots off :good

 

nice bit of doctoring there mate

 

This is where the hub of the argument obviously lays...I would definately agree with you if everytime that Clottey decided to throw he didn't land and was then jumped on by Pac, it didn't happen like that. Just about everything that Clottey threw landed, but he never followed it up, just going back into his shell content with the fact that he was making something of a fight of it....he was content to lose :deal

 

:hey

 

Fair enough :good

This argument might be made if Pac manages to beat Mayweather as well (although obviously not the bit where he was content to lose) :yep

 

Nah, if Pac beats Mayweather then he will get all the credit in the world...not going to happen though, he will get countered to a standstill...you can take that to the bank D

 

Pac should fight the winner of Berto-Quintana.

Floyd would land some
lovely shots against Pac:but not enough to stop Pac winning a decision :deal
