    I think that Cotto will do this in spots, that is his natural fighting style, but I think that he needs to box Clottey more than fight Clottey I would be very surprised if he was able to really hurt Clottey

    one thing about Margo and Baldomir they have stupendous chins, Cotto unfortunately does not, his is a good one but not great

    Clottey wil have to do a lot more than just show up.

    Cotto does not seem like the religious type!

    i agree with what you said but...Clottey will never fight like that, he's just not a pressure fighter, going for broke ain't his style, he ain't got no dog in him...i dont know why people think he's some kind of Shane Mosley or something, maybe it's the muscles?

    For Cotto:

    Avoid Clottey's head...Easier said than done.

    For Clottey:

    Avoid low blows and have a prolonged use of the forehead

    Cotto :
    -use your jab
    -throw combinations even if most of your punches are blocked
    -let Clottey follow you around and keep turning him

    Clottey :
    -put a lot of pressure on Cotto
    -go to Cotto's body
    -use your uppercut
    -be busier than usual

    Hope that you are right, i think that Cotto has a huge chip on his shoulder right now. Look for him to try to make a huge statement.

    The more i think about it the more I realize that Clottey has to go out of character to win this fight while Cotto just needs to be himself.

    Anybody have any new keys to add?

    Damn!!! Clottey did none of these things, you need to hire me as an advisor dude.

    Had he done just two of these things he would have won the fight....:patsch

    Honestly I think that he had way too much respect for Cotto's power.
