Cotto vs. Clottey will be just like the Margarito fight!!!

[Silencers]

He wanted to keep some quickness because Judah is blazing fast...hell blow up aginst Cotto....he has too..

Clottey has a good d...and hes accurate..he will hit Cotto at will...Cotto hasnt shown an ounce of defense as of late

No he doesn't, he is already naturally bigger, there's no reason to blow up to 175 where he would sacrifice some speed, there's no point, he'll need his speed against Cotto.

Clottey has the better defense but that's not true about Cotto having no defense, he barely got hit against Jennings and was boxing beautifully against Margarito in the first 6 rounds, apart from round 2 where he did get hit a bit. His defense has improved a lot.

Clottey wasn't ducking Williams. Margarito you could make a case for.

I didnt mean Clottey.....

Clottey and Williams wanted to scrap but it fell apart....

But Berto..Cintron..Mayweather...Mosley...Cotto..and Marg want nothing to do with The Punisher..but thats a diffrent thread.

Gatti would barely get hit aginst Jennings..he was a joke.

I wouldnt say running backwards throwing arm punches is boxing beautifully..he didnt give angles..he didnt tie up..he didnt go to the body..he didnt jab and set up his left hand properly..he fought a terrible fight...and just thought he could backpedal and shoeshine his way to a decison...until...BOOM! Bodyshot.......now time for Plan B.

And there was none...

This fight is gonna be interesting, I got Clottey because he is bigger, Hungrier and stronger than Cotto.

Jennings was actually throwing some nice looking right hands in there but Cotto managed to block and slip most of them.

1. He wasn't running.

2. He did give angles, he isn't a master at giving angles but they were there.

3. I don't see how clinching has anything to do with boxing beautifully, clinching should be used at opportune moments but I don't think it has much to do with Cotto's boxing skills.

4. He used his jab well, and was landing some huge shots on Margarito behind the jab that Margarito just took flush, his head was swiveling around like a pinata.

Those 3 guys were blatantly ducking my fighter..but thats a diffrent thread.

I respect it....its just ****** though.

Clottey was never ducking Williams. Infact, it was the other way around.

Clottey was willing to step in and fight Williams as his first title defense opponent earlier this year but did not get the chance. Team Williams opted to select Carlos Quintana as their opponent. “We’ll fight Paul Williams but he never steps up to the plate,” says Scolpino.

So basically, after Williams beat Margarito and took his belt, Williams had an optional defense. He chose Carlos Quintana, who at that time, was recently DOMINATED by Cotto. They didn't even look Clottey's way who showed against Margarito that he was tough, dangerous fighter before the Williams fight happened. That looks like careful opponent selection to me.

It was only after Clottey's manager made these comments to the press that Williams sounded off. But prior to that, the Williams camp NEVER mentioned Clotteys name.

"Careful opponent selection"...Williams would fight Klitschko tomorrow if he offered a contract...get real.

They both wanted the fight but it fell apart.

If you want to hate on Williams do it else where.....

And like I told the other guy I didnt mean Clottey....

but Cintron....Cotto..Mayweather....Mosley.....Berto.. ..and Margarito ALL Want nothing to do with Paul.

[JAB5239]

Cotto shouldve never signed.........

Hell look good for a while throwing fast punches...then when he looks up and realizes they all landed on Clotteys guard and Josh isnt hurt...thats when Cotto will retreat and backpedal and get chased down and stopped.

Clottey is too big for him and will be a light heavyweight (175 lbs) on fight night...

Clottey has a good guard and chin..and its hard to land on his body.....

Clottey wil go to Cottos body with his triple left hook attack...

Clottey will eventually wear Cotto down and stop him with some big shots...

Cotto is a great fighter but damn he doesnt know how to recognize when a style is all wrong for you...

First Marg...now Clottey..both fights end the same IMO.

Hmmm..............ok, I'll bet all my points. You in?

how am i hating on Williams? The information is clear as day. Williams chose Quintana over Clottey. Theres nothing else to say. You said something that was incorrect. I corrected you. You claimed someone was ducking your fighter (hating), I corrected you(correction). how is that hating?

[taino78]

u really think clottey with his long layoff will be able 2 execute your prediction. i dont think so, cotto has great timing. if u want 2 compare i think it will be like cotto vs mosley. cottos jab and timing will determine the fight.
