workrate alone wins pacquiao this one, clottey is too happy to sit in his guard and soak up punches, he doesnt push the pace of fights enough, 100 punches or so more in his career and i believe he could very well be 37-1 rather than 35 - 3

Re: Clottey v. Pacquiao
Yes we all know that Pacquiao has beaten up bigger guys the past year, but this is 1 fight I don't see Pacquiao winning. Clottey comes in at 170+ pounds on fight night. That's a freaking light heavyweight fighting at welterweight.
Might as well ask how would Pacquiao do against Paul Williams.

Re: Clottey v. Pacquiao
No one wants to fight Clottey unless they really really have to and even Shane gave him a miss because he has no belt. Clottey is bigger but he is one paced and could be outboxed which is what Pac may do.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

Re: Clottey v. Pacquiao
I see the jab as being the key weapon to beat Pac. Cotto had some success with it as did JMM so Clottey could very well give him hell with his jab and defense plus hes a good sized welter.
If he handles Floyd easily Ill be convinced he could handle any style.

Re: Clottey v. Pacquiao
I kinda lost faith in Clottey after his fight with Cotto.
I really thought he'd beat the shit outta Cotto... Well he kinda did but he STILL managed to let himself down
That's the nature of the beast I guess? No matter how effective he, in theory, can be against Pacquiao, he'll find a way to falter.

Oh crap! I dislocated my shoulder. Still worth it, though.
