    I know the whole fighter a beats fighter b so automatically beats c thing isnt logical when it comes to boxing but is anybody really interested in this, the way pacs team always puts stipulations before they fight someone and the fact they havent really given clottey any is basically a way of saying hes not that good and they are sure they cant beat him. what does beating clottey do anyway, the guys lost practically everytime hes stepped up.

    Pac's team doesn't always give stipulations to someone before they fight them. Cotto at 145 when Pac was a JrWW, and Oscar at WW when Pac was a LW. That's it.

    Pac is the one who went into Barrera's division and backyard the first time he beat him. Remember that? He fought Morales with no stipulations. Same with JMM. Same with Hatton. The list goes on.

    I am paying for this fight whether he fights an A or B fighter, he is always entertaining and if he loses, I will still watch his next fights

    He's lost when he's stepped up but it's always been close. He's a recent IBF champion who lost razor thin to Cotto. I find it pretty interesting. He doesn't fight like any of Pac's recent opponents. He's a different kettle of fish. If this particular kettle of fish got his hard head out of his ass, he could pull an upset.

    It feels like the outcome is more than determined at this point. To know that Clottey lacks activity and movement makes you believe that Pacquiao will win pretty easily. Add to the fact that Mayweather-Mosley took all of the life out of it and it seems completely irrelevant now.

    Well, we'll have to see what Pac and Roach does after this fight in terms of setting up stipulations. But as of now I like the fact that they are having Manny fight at a solid 147. As for the fight itself, I'm not paying for it. Better to wait the following week to watch a rebroadcast of it on HBO. Haven't checked yet but Klit-Chambers might be on as well. Even better, if that's the case. Definitely gonna buy May-Mosley not because I'm a fan of either guy but because that is the biggest fight of the year so far.

    Clottey as far as I know still doesn't have his trainer.

    I guess I am the only one who likes this line up of fights better than some bull**** "Superfight"


    Clottey-Pac is on my list of fights I would absolutely love to see. Along with Floyd-Shane, PW-Cotto, Margo-MartinezII, Zab-Khan, Berto-Quintana...


    And when Clottey whips his ass, I don't want to hear ****.


    Silence, Mother****as!

    Silence!

    Hard to be interested when the only reason Roach approved Clottey as an opponent is because it's far more than likely Clottey WON'T DO ENOUGH TO WIN. The whole purpose of them getting in the ring with this guy is exactly the reason it's a foregone conclusion - according to them. Freddie has detailed it. Graphically.

    Then there's **** #1 Bob Arum... Like I'd put more money in that **** head's pocket? **** NO.
