Miguel Cotto vs Joshua Clottey: Who Takes This?

Yeah right, Clottey didn't injure his hand against Margo. He just started grimacing in pain, had his hand checked out, and stopped throwing with injured hand(despite the fact that he was winning) just for the fun of it. Get real.

 

Dude, Joshua Clottey admitted himself his hands were not injured in that fight. He said it was a single knuckle on each hand. Just as his claimed to have a torn left bicep in the Judah fight, which turned out to be untrue.

When have you ever known a fighter with a serious hand injury to be back in training eight weeks after supposedly injuring it?

 

True and not to mention he looked like **** against Zab and couldn't even stop a wash up shot Chico who moved up from 135 to 147.

Cotto by UD

 

People saying that Clottey looked like ****, i have no diea what you're talking about. Judah actually fought a smart fight and was maximizing his talents for a change. But it was obvious that whatever Judah threw at Clottey, he was just too small and didn't have the pop to hurt Clottey. And i think it was the 7th round or so when Judah really let his hands go. Probably a last ditch effort for the KO.

Besides, the cut that opened up Judah was via a upper cut. It's obvious that had the fight gone on, Clottey would've stopped Judah. Or just dominated the rest of the fight.

 

Clottey takes this by a tough UD.

 

Stop hyping clottey please

 

I dont have to hype him, he speaks for himself inside the ring. Look around, almost no one wants to fight the guy.

 

Maybe because he has done **** all an isnt an exciting fighter.

 

Just because he isn't "exciting" to you & almost all others, does that mean he shouldn't get a fair chance?

 

He has done nothing at all, until the judah fight everytime he was on the verge of becoming anything he either lost or been unimpressive. Add to the fact that he isnt exciting and he wont be getting any chances anytime soon.

 

He was DQ'd against Ta Ta, you already know the story with AM.
He hasn't had an equal opportunity to make a name for himself.

Fans consider Winky boring, does that mean Winky doesnt deserve any fights?

 

Yeah, Clottey has never had a big fight outside of the Marg fight and we all know about his injury. I had it 7-5 Marg despite that. So he's never really had a chance to shine on the big stage.

 

I had the same score. It was like the 8th round where he came out landing so many counters, I had to give him that round. If he could've went all out and won the 12th, he could've got a draw.

 

I had Clottey a draw vs Margarito. I'd give Clottey the edge in this fight, until I see Cotto in action again and see if the Margo beating didnt take anything out of him.

 

My thing with clottey isnt about how exciting he is. My problem with him is he is getting alot of credit for doing nothing. Winky when giving the chance took advantage of the opportunity, and dominated. Clottey is good but not as good as people giving him credit for, especially given his preformances against sub par competition. You have to dominate guys that are clearly a level below you. Clottey doesnt do this.
