    Full credit to Manny for forcing the fight and taking risks, but it takes two to tango, and Clottey had cleary forgotten his dancing shoes. To be honest I was disgusted in Clottey. The biggest opportunity of his life, his 'Miracle' fight and he hides in his shell like a narcoleptic Tortoise for 36 minutes. Pathetic.

    Bearing in mind Clottey's background, and the notoriously brutal upbringing in Accra, this guy had no fight in him. He outweighed Manny by nearly two weight divisions on the night, and still didnt show the bottle to try and at least make it a fight. There was so many times Manny let his hands go in bunches and looked downstairs to finish off the combinations. Where was the big right hand counter ? I'll tell you where, covering his face like a bad case of acne.

    I have no doubt that if Clottey had at least attempted to throw some leather he could have had some success. To sit there, content in surviving against a much smaller foe is shameless in my book. Jim Watt and even Darkie were talking shite throughout that fight, and I love Darkie, but come on ? Courageous and brave Clottey ? WTF !!!

    Cotto was brave and courageous, Clottey was a fucking coward. At first I thought or more so hoped that Clottey was just weathering the early storm and would come on strong in the second half of the fight, using his size and strength, but no, fuck all.

    Disgraceful from Clottey who shouldnt be given another shot like this as long as he lives. That may sound harsh, but it was called the 'Event', the only thing vented was my anger at such a bitch poor showing from Joshua.

    Roll on Floyd and Shane, that fight didnt do boxing any favours.

    Some people say boxing is a matter of life or death, it's not, it's far more important than that.
