    Look its about to get real serious in 2 weeks and I wanna know what you guys think, if Clottey wins, what happens. Let me break it down.

    If Clottey wins then I dont know if Mosley fights him. Might not be alot of money in the fight, but with Clottey beating Cotto it would do decent money. If Mosley doesnt take the fight then what Happens?? I say Clottey fights Berto in the fall if Berto beats Urango amking Mosdley have to fight the winner of that fight.

    Now if Cotto loses then his career could be in trouble. I know its hard to say because only a 2nd loss is really nothing but check it out. Cotto did fight 2 cupcakes in his last 3 fights. This is his 1st real fight since losing to Margarito and he had to switch trainers for this huge fight. If Cotto were to lose whats his options?? I say He'd probably want a rematch with Mosley so he can get back in the mix so he would pray for Mosley not to fight Clottey.If MOsley were to fight Clottey then Cotto is assed out and would have to ask if he can fight the winner of Berto-Urango which would be another tough fight.

    I dont know guys, this WW division can take a huge turn in 2 weeks, what do you guys think?

    ain't gonna happen...

    but if it does, its gonna suck for the fans. theres potential for us to lose a very exciting champion and gain a pretty damn boring one. cotto is so much more entertaining to watch than clottey its ridiculous.

    How is Clottey boring?? I think hes a great boxer with great defense. He might think this could be his last shot at the big time

    He's boring cause he doesnt do anything in the ring to generate excitement. He sticks to his turtle shell defense most of the time and doest do anything explosive. He dont have great ko wins or beaten anyone elite. How isnt he not boring.

    I second that. I thought he was giving Margarito an entertaining ass whippin'. It's a shame he quit in that fight - Makes me question his heart.

    No excitment? When you play defense like him, when you swing its serious bussiness. thats why most of his shots have good power on them because he just doesnt swing all the time. but if he beats Cotto wouldnt that make him elite?

    yeah - let me clarify "quit", by quit I meant stopped fighting for the remainder of the fight after he hurt his hand, which is why he ended up losing.

    I think the fight is going to be better than most people think - he should fight his ass off for this one.

    I agree...Cotto is more exciting but his time is up when he faces Josh. Styles make fights and this fight favors Josh...not to mention his size advantage which will come in to play.

    Yeah Clottey is gonna fight his ass off. He might not get another shot, this is it. and for Cotto he knows he needs to win this fight so he can get a fight at Mosley and get his first lineal title, LETS GET IT ON!!!
