    im not mad im just dissapointed, youd think after youre getting shut out after the 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 rounds you would try to change something up, its utterly embarrassing and dissapointing, at no point in the fight did he try to win

    I have no problem with how Clottey fought for the 1st 9 rounds. That is all he could do and maybe he was hoping to catch Pac with something big. But the 10,11,12 rounds is where I have a real issue with him NOT picking it up and going all out.

    I thought Clottey is fading by the later rounds. That explains why he can't fight anymore in rounds 10, 11 and 12.

    Rounds 1 to 9, Clottey was busy defending himself. By rounds 10 to 12, Clottey is already fading. So there you go. :good

    Somebody needs to tell Clottey that the name of the game is Boxing. Not Bloxing.

    cause he was more interested in giving his idol hugs and touching his gloves every 2 seconds...

    maybe he wanted a concert invite!!

    I expected him to go out at least the last two rounds and go to war. No wonder he has an iron chin, his gloves are glued to his face. The little that he did accomplish, busted up Pac a little so why not go after him at any round and see if he could have stopped him or hurt him. I use to hate fighting guys with that much speed, but I eventually rough them up a little and throw straight power shots. He looked like he was content that he went twelve rounds and that paycheck put a great big smile on his face.

    I don't think people expected him to change his style but I think people expected him to throw punches, to take a chance to win the fight. To understand that this is the biggest fight of his career and go all out and prove that you say that you are as good as you say you are, but he was just too complacent in staying in his guard and letting Pac just tee off on him.

    some mad cause of that! (it's sad) but anyways: Welcome to Pissed and Totally Butt-hurt Uglyboy Fans!
    More disappointments ahead, Enjoy!! :hi:

    this is actually the real issue with Joshua GrandTurtle Clottey: Yo, WTF Dude?????!?!?!??!?!???? :?:mad::?

    smells like rotten gut feeling of some fan/hater/poorly disguised floydete, but maybe true: GrandTurtle have been seen in front row at the "Pac-Fest Palooza" after the fight!!! :deal

    i'm not mad at the guy.... but i admit that i'm a little disappointed with the way he fought pac. IMO he should have taken more risk by trying to exchange with pac. people were not asking for him to go toe-to-toe but at least throw enough punches so he would have a decent chance to land a big one. the way he fought, people perceived him as the guy who "just wanted to prove that he woulnt get KTFO'd" that night.

    hmm says . . .

    i ain't mad just disappointed...

    he had a big opportunity and let it pass by, especially after all that big talk Clottey made about being a beast and such on fight night.... go all out balls deep or don't come at all. I'm sure he was waiting for something big, I was waiting for a change in the mid rounds but nothing............

    well unfortunately it was the most incredibly josh clottey-esque performance josh clottey has ever put on and it was in the biggest fight of his career. he screwed a lot of people out of a lot of money and good entertainment. you'd think it wouldn't have taken much from him being in the ring with the most entertaining fighter out there. he just didn't even try.
