    Clottey has proven himself to be atleast on the level of the likes of Cotto & Margo...those fights were very close.

    Stylistically, Clottey beats Cintron anyways. Clottey has a granite chin, Cintron's biggest asset is his power and Clottey just nullifies that. Everything else is Clottey, skills & speed.

    The same way Margo did? Clottey already confirmed for us Cotto hits harder than Margo...Cintron's chinny.

    I think Clottey is faster, smarter, and technically better than Cintron. Cintron has more pop but that's about it.

    Cintron is weak minded. He got hit by Margo to the body and he started crying. Whats does Cotto do best? Capito??

    Still a pick em fight IMO. Both have an equal shot at wining. That's my honest opinion.

    I have watched a lot of Kermit Cintron fights, and I have no idea how you guys see Clottey as definitely beating him.

    Clottey always fades and Cintron has a good offensive set.

    I think that after Pac destroyed Cotto, Clottey's stock dropped a little. Before that fight it would've been like 99% for Clottey.

    cintron isn't the fastest guy around, he is tad bit faster than margo, cotto outboxed and beat up margo for the first 6 rounds, cintron wouldn't be able to handle all those punches, he'd either give up or cry or even do both.

    And we both know its biased :lol:

    If Floyd was fighting Clottey and Pac Cintron, you would be singing a different tune.

    How can you sing a different tune than 50-50?
    reverse it to 50-50?

    Toss up like Pimp C says, Cintron has stopped looking for that one punch and getting back to his jab and straight right. Tough fight though can see Clottey winning the early rounds and fading giving Cintron a good chance of coming back.

    Clottey isn't active enough he losses a lot of rounds by simply shelling up and not throwing. He doesn't have the killer instinct IMO when he has someone hurt. He also seems to be satisfied by taking shots and shaking his head at his opponent as if they can't hurt him instead of attacking them. IMO Cintron is the more skilled boxer who outboxed Angulo by using a good jab movement and strategic clinching he's a smarter fighter than Clottey and busier. With that said it's really a pick em and would come dopwn to which fighter can handle what the other fighter can do best better.

    But he isn't siding with anyone.
    he is saying it could go either way.
    You think he secretly thinks clottey is better but won't admit it because pac is facing him????
