    No way in hell he deserves a shot at Cotto. He'll re-break both his hands trying to block Cotto's body shots.
    Clottey still stopped an opponent that had never been KO'd before, something Mosley couldn't do! I to believe he struggles with Cotto but I think your being a little harsh on his performance!

    I think CLottey is a good tough fighter,the key word being good,not great. Decent power,good handspeed,tough but on the other side,gasses,wiiiiide open to the body and can be outworked. A solid top 10 guy.Cotto would crush him and his ribs imo.

    I've always liked Clottey, but truth be told he is starting to read like yesterday's news. It seems he is lacking any real fire and is content to fight only as hard as he needs to win, without going the extra mile. He seems to be lacking in the finishing department and just goes with the flow. Good solid fighter and tough as steel, but becoming a bore. Cotto would break him.

    At the end of the day if Clottey is so over-rated then what does that make Margarito? If he was beating him up until he broke his hand then surely that makes Margarito friggin awful?? Yupp, admittedly i'm a Marg hater but he hasn't shown me shit to show me otherwise unlike fighters like JC etc who have shown me something to change my mind...we'll see against Cintron again..until then he aint shit just because he beat a green and fragile minded Cintron...sorry Marg fans..
