Please explain: what was Clottey's game plan to win against Pacquiao?

it was obvious that his strategy was to turtle up and wait for an open shot

 

As I said before the fight. As his ****ing own corner said after the fight.. And everybody speculated. He did not come to win the fight but go the 12. Whether if that was based on his fear of Pac or whether there was other outside influence. The fact of the matter is that he did not try and to anyone with eyes that watched fights at the championship level when the contender is fighting the top tier. They usually give it there all. Clottey clearly did not give it his all. All the prefight low self esteem bull**** he said "he wont beat me like he beat them" "If by chance, I win I think it would be great" you go into a fight like that you are coming to take an L.

 

the reason he fought the way he did was because of his fear of ending up like hatton/dlh/cotto he didnt want to be destroyed like that. The sad part was in his own little way he l ost just as bad

 

I thought his gameplan was to pick his spots early and let Pac wear himself out punching at his gloves......

.......Pacquiao did'nt cooperate, as he it looks like nowdays he has the capacity to take on two top fighters in one night, and mantain a workrate.

The quickness, speed, and stamina never went on a downward curve for Pacquiao, even though he was puncing a bigger fighters gloves and arms....

.....and thus, Clottey did'nt have the guts to give it a try with Pac still fully capable to let his hands fly.


Imo Clottey's early plan was a good one, but when Pac did'nt slow, you have to switch the plan and take your chances.
Clottey did'nt do that.

 

I wonder why?:think


.......in any regards, Pac was hitting DLH and Cotto cleany to the head and body.
.....you would expect the fighter getting hit to wear down.

......against Clottey, Pac was hitting mostly arms and gloves. Normally a small fighter is'nt doing damage in this situation and is wearing himself out.
That I believe was Clottey's hope and plan.....but like you said, and I'll correct you......Pac's the Energizer bunny, not Duracell bunny.

......but I know what you meant!

 

Hmm.....I did'nt know that.
I wonder who used the bunny first, Energizer of Duracell?

 

turtle up and get the money

 

'Try not to get killed' seemed to be his plan. He was scared shitless to fight like that. Pacquiao was putting gloves all over him and all Clottey would do was shell up. He got raped by a midget.

 

Those scoundrels at Energizer.

I've got to say I've lost a little respect for those at Energizer.
As long as its cost effective, I think I'll chose Duracell from here on out.

I dislike cheats with a passion!

 

He was waiting for the 15th round.

 

When was the last time you seen to fighters Hug before the final round begin???? They were touching gloves all night on every lilttle breakup in the fight! This was no boxing war here fellas. A complete joke!!!! The fight was fixed flatout.
