    not on a head to head view, but from a stylistic view, which fight is tougher for the p4p kings.

    floyd vs mosley
    clottey vs pac

    for me it is clottey. his style will be a nightmare for pac, he is a big solid welter who can bang, plus he has a great defence, i can't pac's ferocious style havin much success.

    floyd has proved he can win boring, and i think he will defeat mosley in this manner.

    I agree. Pac will probably struggle more.

    Ridiculous.

    Clottey is vastly over-rated on here now. Vastly.

    Better than Mosley? Give over.

    I see it as the opposite... Clottey shells up from a good offense. Manny throws from all angles and Clottey will be over defensive and eventually get hit, a lot.

    You just summed up what the 12 rounds will look like, exept CLottey will give a slight chance of hope at around round #10 and completely stop throwing in rounds #11-12.

    Mosley without a doubt. Clottey has serious pockets of inactivity. It cost him the Cotto fight, for one. Clottey just doesn't have a great sense of when to up the intensity, etc..

    Clottey outlanded Cotto. [Fact]


    Now carry on with this pointless discussion.

    Clottey gave away the Cotto and Margarito fights for not fighting.

    Mosely can knock you out at any time in the fight even the last second ask Mayorga.

    Not too mention he has outboxed the likes of Oscar Vargas Collazo and many more

    Cotto won despite Clottey charging in wth his head and causing a massive, potentially fight ending cut which practically blinded Cotto for the duration - fact.

    Clottey seems to run out of ideas against good opposition and seemed confused by Cotto's movement later in their fight. As Manny is faster than Cotto I say he steamrollers the massively overated (by certain ESB posters) Clottey to an early victory.

    Mosley is the harder fight and I just can't see him going down against Floyd or WaPakMan. In fact I reckon he out muscles Manny for a solid win.

    Which ever way you look at it Mosley on his last outing beat the p!ss out of anything that Clottey has ever done and looked massively impressive in doing so.

    come on.. are we going to debate mosley clottey now????

    And btw, clottey is supposed to loose... That´s why he keeps getting these fights from arum... he makes it look like a tough fight but will find a way to loose anyway and make his opponent get a big win... He did this to all Arum´s big name fighters... It´s not a coincidence that he keeps getting these fights

    i think pac will struggle more but mosley is still tougher if that makes sense

    He doesn't have to be better than Mosley to be a harder fight for Pacquiao.

    It's about even IMO.

    Clottey's too inactive to win a decision and has had only one stoppage in his past 11 fights. Do the math.

    I agree. Mosley will be in this fight until the bell rings at the end of 12. Is the Mayweather/Mosley fight still going to happen?
