    If Alvarez boxes,he wins this imo.I don't think Clottey would be able to handle lateral movement,he doesn't jab,is pretty stationary and gasses often if not in the majority of his fights. If Alvarez stands and fights,he'll lose. Either way,it should be a fine fight.Shame though,Collazo was supposed to be fighting Clottey for this eliminator,but he and his camp didn't turn up at the purse bid i.e. ducked Clottey.

    Default Joshua Clottey fighting Shamone Alvarez this Thursday.

    Okay people who do you think will win.

    This is an IBF eliminator and Alvarez is a NABO champ.

    Can see Clottey winning this on points.

    Clottey by tough but clear cut UD.

    I'm really looking forward to this fight. If Alvarez uses his southpaw stance,jab and lateral movement to his advantage,he wins. If he stands and trades,Clottey, via points.

    Looks like Kermit Cintron wont have his little IBF belt very long regardless.
    But, I am going with Clotey UD over Shamone Alvarez. It's a no brainer.
    Poor Kermit

    Oh SNAP! I just read that Quintana is fighting Williams. This should be a good little scrap. I hope Quintana does better than I think he will do. (I doubt it but I hope so)

    Clottey is a big strong durable Welter with decent handspeed, I look for him to get a UD. I like Clottey and definetly have him as the dark horse of the Welter division

    Not that I know of but if something comes up I'm sure someone will post it.

    Right on JT, Clotteys performed well one thing I noticed while watching his fight again against Chico was the 'X' Factor to try and finish Chico.
    I mean we know Chico didn't have the best chin around and was fighting above his weight class, I would have thought Clottey would stop him.
    Anyway still I think he's gonna edge out Alvarez.

    I don't think Clottey really has the mindset to ever be a very good to great fighter but he's pretty solid. El Gamo's right in that he's a guy who doesn't look like he'd be his best against lateral movement but I haven't seen enough of Alvarez to pick him.

    If I am not mistaken Clottey had just gotten over walking pnemonia when he fought Corrales and fought anyway...So you could attribute it the illness

    IMO Clottey has a title in his future...He has never really been beaten...In the Margarito fight he broke his hand I believe ( or fractured it)....was winning until that point in the fight...his only other loss was a dq to Big Head Baldomir.....

    Clottey takes a hell of a punch and can box rather well....IMO he has a good chance of beating Cintron...

    I reckon Clottey would batter Cintron.

    Wow.. Im pretty suprised at that. Collazo has been inactive for quite a while now, i thought his camp would be itching for any fight.

    I agree with your comments about movement and lack of jab. Plus Clottey is guilt of being a bit punchmatic. However i havent seen Shamone Alvarez but i doubt he has the craft to quell Clotteys assults.

    Fan boy talk, of course

    Collazo I believe is fighting on the undercard of Jones/Trinidad. Fighting a guy named Linares{brother of Jorge??}.

    I'm going with ud win for Clottey on this as well.

    Its Jorge's brother, not as good though.

    Fuck it, I'll pick Alvarez. I just saw one of his fights, he's not that great but he moves a lot and Clottey's not very mentally tough, and more importantly flatfooted as all hell.
