    Get your facts straight.. Cottey did NOT break his hand in that fight. It was an excuse he made to save face. Broken hand my ass. He simply couldnt handle the pressure and the volume punching of margo so he gave up. He lacks heart and he's not an elite fighter.

    If u saw the Chico/Clottey telecast, you would have realized that he was lieing about his hand, and that Chico fight showed alot about him as a fighter.

    Dude he was bust'n Margo's ass and then he just stopped throwing punches. Margo wasnt landing anything and wasnt putting on very much pressure, he was simple standing in front of Clottey and getting hammered. Clottey has also had hand problems in many fights, the fight with Chico, the fight with Cruz and his fight with Judah. So for you to say that its an excuses is crap. Why would he tell his cornermen in a fight that he was winning that he hurt his hand, then a few rounds later tell them that he hurt his other hand??

    It's not a question of Clottey being special, rather Cotto NOT being special. That's the feeling for alot of fans anyway.

    Clottey is a good boxer with a wicked counter uppercut.

    I had his fight with Margarito a draw. I fight I think he would have won had he not gassed.

    So, what will be the concensus when Clottey finds himself belly-up?

    It's very possible and I won't be shocked at all if it happens especially from a body shot.

    Clottey has a jaw made from the finest African Teak. There is noway Cotto is cracking that ****.

    Clottey has a brilliant left hook and is a very, very solid fighter. Margarito threw everything and Clottey and he was never remotely hurt. We all know what happened to Cotto against Margarito.... well I actually think Margarito cheated in that fight. His punches were crude and delivered with sub-par technique and yet they still hurt Cotto badly when Cotto went the full 12 with Sugar Shane throwing bombs.

    When Cotto beats his ass, Clottey will say he broke both his eyes and couldn't see the punches

    Can't use that excuse anymore as he said he got unlimited supply of Nigerian medicine after what happened with Margarito.
