Joshua Clottey vs. Felix Flores RBR

[SweetPea]

Clottey fighting tonight on Versus. Just about to start.

[LEGION]

I'm watching right now and been waiting for this one. I'm a big Clottey fan and too bad he busted his hands up with Margarito; he was owning that guy. I'd like to see a rematch of that fight

[No Contest]

Has his fight started? Damn I'm stuck here at work...

ROund 1: Clottey takes it easy for the first minute, FLores lands some light jabs. Then Clottey opens up, jabbing and throwing combos. Lands some hard left hooks to the body and some counter uppercuts. He is definitely the bigger, stronger, faster, sharper fighter.

Round to Clottey.

Joshua is a good fighter who had two luck bad run ins on his record the........ DQ against Baldomir for leading with his head and the Toney fight....

I agree he was winning that fight with ease until the 6th when he broke his hand....

The guy is World Champion able....Solid Chin...Good boxing skills....Hits pretty hard...good stamina....

I think a lot of guys don't want to fight him TBH....Even if you beat him you look bad

Round 2: Clottey is too fast and sharp. Lands crushing hooks to the body and head, right crosses, uppercuts with both hands, etc. He's hitting Flores whenever he wants and FLores can't do much in return.
Round to Clottey, 20-18.

Round 3: In a strange move, Clottey gets up on his toes and starts dancing. Weird, since he was dominating the first 2 rounds while flat-footed. Either he's just trying something different or his hands are hurting... we'll see. Anyway, Flores doesn't land much.
Round to Clottey, 30-27.

Round 4: Fought in a phone booth. Flores is much more aggressive, comes forward, pushed Clottey to the ropes, throws lots of punches. Clottey counters a lot with sharp uppercuts.
Even round. 40-37, Clottey.

[SweetPea]

Round 5: Headbutt early in the round, no cuts. Clottey gets on his toes and boxes... jab and moves. Throws some sharp uppercuts. Flores follows him around, doesn't really know how to cut off the ring.
Round to Clottey, 50-46.

Site went down for a few minutes...

It's in Round 9, and the pace has slowed. Seems like Clottey realizes he can't KO Flores and is going to box his way to a decision.

[LEGION]

Clottey seems off, compared to other fights. He really needs to stay off the ropes and learn to use a jab.

[SweetPea]

By the way, when Michael Buffer announced the fight, he started out the intros by saying "Let's Get This Party Started!!!"

[SweetPea]

Going into the 10th and final round, and Flores definitely needs a KO.

[LEGION]

I'd really like to see Clottey work the body alot more, especially when he was on the ropes.
