**** its a dangerous fight for Manny, with all this talk of Clottey being the bigger stronger of the two and NOT a catch-weight title bout. Plus there is no shame in him losing a close bout with Cotto is there?? Its a fight and one that has me interested.Its better than no fight aint it?
This fight will all make sense on March 14th when you check the ESB board to see that it has gone into a ****ing frenzy. When Clottey puts Pac in the dirt, this place will EXPLODE!
This is a great quote, and almost tempting enough to put in my signature, but your username gives me the heebie jeebies. :err
It's not a joke at all, it's just not a very compelling fight. Clottey has one KO in his past 10 fights, and he's not going to get a decision against Pac with style of fighting only in spurts.
You must have also missed the news that Floyd is lining up to fight Nate Campbell. Or Malignaggi. Why not fight Bradley? Because Manny is a welter now and wants to fight welters. Bradley is at 140lbs. Manny doesn't want to go back down. Marquez? Marquez just got beat by Floyd, so by YOUR logic that would be "some kind of joke." Were you one of the ones complaining that he never fought a black fighter? Well there goes that argument too. Who else is he going to fight at such short notice? Here are the Ring magazine's Welterweight rankings: 1. Manny Pacquiao (can't fight himself) 2. Shane Mosley (already fighting Berto) 3. Floyd Mayweather (negotiations broke down) 4. Miguel Cotto (just beat him) 5. Joshua Clottey (bingo!!) There really isn't much to complain about, other than him not fighting Floyd.
No. Hopefully my supervisor doesn't walk by in the next few minutes and ask "why the fetal position? :blood"
