      Clottey's hand speed is not slow. His feet and his body are another matter though.

        He has what may be the perfect style to beat Pac. First point: You need to be able to trade with Pac to win. You have to be able to do it and win as many of the exchanges as you lose. Marquez won more exchanges but in a few got dropped which made it close. Morales, when he wasn't a dead man walking also won most of the exchanges. Two: You need to be able to defend yourself or take a good punch.

        Clottey has both of these points. He is actually a pressure fighter. Most may not think of him as one, but his style is to walk you down, block everything and then counter punch and stay on you. He wears you down with his defence an then counter punches.

        Pac doesn't to too well against counter punchers because he leaves himself open. Clottey doesn't punch enough sometimes, which is the biggest way he will lose this fight and the most likely way he will lose it, but, he has very good defence and a great chin when he does get hit. If he can counter punch and get off enough, he will give Pac a lot more problems than most realise.
        Excellent post, bro!

          Joshua himself revealed one of the tactics he will use. Apart from beating Pac to the draw, he said he'll be lookin at openings right after Pac unloads. That's when he is most vulnerable.

            pacquiao's volume of punches will wear down clottey's defense.
