He fought the number one welter in the world in Mosley and he wasn't hit as easily as that. No way Clotttey has more speed than Mosley. It was his training thats to blame. Yeah like he's really gonna follow the directions of a guy who threw a brick at him.
Cotto is currently learning how to slip and counter a plate of rice and beans from phil landman. and also how to offset eating the fried chicken skin with a sharp jab.
That was when he was unbeaten..Clottey was his second fight after a heatbreaking beating from a guy who likely had plaster in his hands. Cant really know for sure how much that fight took out of Miguel and if his training was to blame you cant squarely blame Joe for it...As all the drama that Evangelista caused would have been more of an issue..Drama that shouldnt be in this training camp. And though I dont put a lot of faith in them...the punchstats say your wrong..Shane hit Cotto more then Clottey did.
