Rewatched Cotto vs Pac

[Conrad]

He's awesome isn't he! At the time I was truly amazed, both against ODLH and Cotto.

That's why I'm seriously gutted about the PED thing. Whether it's true or not I feel like we've been robbed of something special.

The PED Pac is on is called A-Side Meth. A-side Meth can make you impervious to .38 and .45 caliber bullets. This drug was used by the Flip military to fight against the American troops that's why Flip people whether on the battlefield of war or inside a boxing ring can keep on coming forward. This drug is only exclusive to the Phillipines, Pacquiao's home country.

This is according to Roger and Floyd Sr. Pretty cool eh?

Had you of told me 2years ago that cotto would get beat at 147 by a featherweight i would of laughed so hard i probably wouldnt be here today

I just cannot fathom how manny pacquiao mantains his speed at this level and yet punches like a middleweight

Clottey is too slow to get to Pac and he's not good enough of a boxer to outbox Pac either.

[GAME]

Clottey is second best to Pac in pretty much every aspect of the game but he can do something Pac cant - Fight dirty.

If he follows the blueprint set by Sanchez it shows how an inferior fighter can get a better fighter off his game. Pac didnt win the fight with Sanchez so if Clottey wants to avoid what seems like an inevitable defeat he needs to bend the rules abit and once Pac is out of his stride he can get to work.

The more I study Clottey the more I am leaning towards a stoppage. Clottey's defense is all wrong against Pac. Pac feasts well on guys who are easy to find. Clottey is the epitome of a stationary target. Clottey doesn't push himself or go for broke and that is what he has to do. Clottey has to impose his size but he never does. There is no advantage in being bigger if you don't impose it. In fact it will be a disadvantage because he will be a bigger target. Against Cotto when the heat was on Clottey was looking for a way out. He wanted to get out of the heated moments. Against Pac he will have many more heated moments and Pac won't be there as often as Cotto so Clottey's heart will be overly tested and he will get overly frustrated. Pac may even hurt Clottey but I will say he peppers Clottey mostly en route to a De La Hoya-like TKO. Pac TKO Clottey around 10.

True.

Ive posted this before i believe. Follow the Agapito Sanchez game plan and you have a chance.

Clottey showed better handspeed and boxing skills than Cotto, I don't think those will be the problem for him. IMO it will be his inability to open up when someone is throwing punches at him that will be his undoing.
