I really have no interest in this Pac/Clottey fight. I am reading about boxing everyday, but it's a fight that just isn't crossing over into my radar. After the promise of Mayweather/Pac and the diva antics that ensued, Pac/Clottey has left nothing but a bitter taste. All my attention is on Mayweather/Mosley instead. It is a far more interesting matchup.
As it is, I hope Clottey shocks everyone by knocking out Pac, but I have a hard time seeing it happen. All of Manny's recent big name wins have come against fighters who are fresh off bad knockouts or past it and weight drained. Clottey, as good as he is, isn't damaged, but fits into the David Diaz category in that he is durable, but doesn't do anything particularly remarkable. Pac will likely out work him and wear him down or take a decent decision.
Manny could have gone after Mosley, who is regarded as the top WW, but once again they have decided to avoid him. They should have fought him instead of Cotto and they should have fought him now.
Pac/Clottey? Does anyone really care? I know I don't.
i like watching people fight.
thats why i care.
Cotto was damaged goods after the Margarito fight. I thought everybody knew that.

I wonder why Pac didn't try to fight Mosley. As soon as his fight vs Berto was cancelled, Mayweather stepped in and took the fight. Where was Pac? I would expect BOTH of them doing what they could for that opportunity but Floyd took the initiative here while Pac looked for an easy fight.
I don't give Clottey any chance at all either. I find it interesting how people try to sell that fight saying that Clottey is so dangerous, Pac's biggest challenge ever, blah blah blah. Why hasn't any journalist said anything about it? I do see journalists saying over and over how Floyd has not taken a real challenge and all but when it comes to Pac vs Clottey or other weight-drained, past-their-prime guys, etc. then Pac gets praised. I don't get it.

That was the case. It was only teh Haiti tragedy that he pulled out. And then a fight with Mosley-Mayweather was on.
And for people saying why he didn't take Mosley after hatton. If he did and did beat him, it would be because he was too old and inactive and there would be questions why he didn't fight Cotto. Same thing is being said if Mayweather beats Mosley, that Mosley is now too old and inactive.
I remember this forum being split 50/50 with the Cotto fight, but after that fight the same people who picked Cotto to win said he was a shot fighter after the fight.
So let's not bullshit with that.
