I can't prove it....but Arum has been INVESTIGATED BY THE FBI for fixing fights...and Clottey didn't have to fight again for 3 years.
That fight was fishy as the dumpster behind Long John Silvers.
Look at Manny at the press conference.
Dude looked like he fell down an elevator shaft.
He was plenty fucked after the Cotto fight as well.
Alright, so because Arum was investigated for fixing De la Hoya-Mosley II (where De la Hoya, a Top Rank fighter ended up losing...so I guess Bob Arum is stupid AND diabolical??), a few Butterbean fights (can hardly call that boxing), and Paez-Smith...and no charges ever got filed.
How was the fight "fishy"? Clottey didn't throw a lot of punches but he doesn't typically throw a lot of punches.
Welcome and thanks for the video. The one thing hat seems to stand out which Marquez KO'd PAC-Man with in his last fight bothers me. Pac usually moves his head and lateral movement is good but he stays in front of his opponents too long sometimes and takes unnecessary risks as he did with Clottey. Most of Floyd's opponents make a large mistake, head hunting. Manny's switching from had to body as becomes necessary with his speed evens the odds for a few rounds but if anything wins this fight for either man it is consistent application of strategy and in Manny's case is his throwing so many punches a round consistently. In other words don't let him breathe, acknowledge those shoulder rolls and quickly throw sharp left hands often to the left because most right hand fighter have to set up that punch. Head hunting as most of Floyd s opponents forgot is the propensity to miss and miss often makes your best shots turn into arm punches. You have jelly rolls instead of biceps as the fight goes on. Like Rocky Marciano used to favor, hit what you see.
