Comments from the Margarito Clottey fight at boxrec:
"Comment(s):
- Margarito suffered from a severe sprained ankle only a week before the bout, and also had problems with his left shoulder as reported days before the fight.
- Clottey suffered an injured left hand in round four, probably while landing a left uppercut. He immediately went into retreat and told his corner at the break.
- Showtime reported this live, explaining why Clottey proceded to lose rounds five through eleven on all three official score cards.
- Clottey later admitted his hand was not broken as initially reported."
Margarito is a warrior. If he can avoid getting cut, he will give any welterweight the fight of their life! His biggest downfall is that he can be a slow starter.
