Can Clottey now beat the 39-year old mosley? I think YES.

[immortal tech]

he'd beat him into submission, straight up and down

I think Clottey could or should beat Mosley he has the talents but I also thought he should have beaten Cotto I just don't think he has the mentality to win. Im giving Pacquiao a lot of credit for taking a very high risk and little reward fight

Slight edge on Clottey. Mosley took more beating from Cotto than Clottey did

[check hook]

but im not saying he's a tougher challenge for floyd--since its a different style--

agreed.....clottey is a bad match up stylistically for shane....he would beat shane imo........

but SSM is a tougher fight for floyd than clottey would be......all about styles people......

Clottey beat Cotto that beat Mosley. I think Clottey can win. You all just underrate Clottey because he is fighting Pac. The truth is you Floyd fans want to overrate Mosley so that Floyd will be given more credit if he beats Mosley than Pac beating Clottey. Clottey can beat Pac, Mosley and Floyd.

not. true. at. ALL.

clottey is not a "winky" who has a consistent jab behind his tight defense. clottey fights in spurts and not much at all in the later rounds.

shane is too busy and too consistent for clottey. he'll out hustle clottey.

shane UD.

clottey got a split decision defeat after margo nearly killed cotto. shane fought cotto before margo and never was knocked down in that bout. (clottey was put on his butt against cotto) shane fought cotto very closely also. clottey cried through out that bout against cotto, and sometimes looking as if he was trying to find a way to get out of the fight.

mayweather without a doubt is fighting a more dangerous opponent in shane then pac is in clottey. PAC will tko clottey to be honest with you.

Have ppl totally overlooked where Mosley is on the P4P rankings right now. Do I think he beats Floyd? No, but I do think it will be a good fight. Do I think Clottey, who needs a fighter to stand right in front of him to beat him can beat Mosley? HELL NO. Clottey is a good fighter, but he's no where near Mosley's caliber even at 39.

Mosley was ranked number 3 on the ring ****zine and boxingscene's P4P list well before this fight was signed. I don't think "Floyd Fans" needed to overrate Mosley. His credentials have been put on display, which is the reason he is looked at as the third best fighter in the world right now. Whereas Clottey's best wins were against Zab Judah (who has all the talent in the world but nothing upstairs) and Diego Coralles (who should never have tried coming up to 147 that late in his career after being in so many wars). If you want to use Cotto as a stepping stone, then we can say that Cotto won close controversial decisions over both. But Mosley outlanded Cotto, hurt him, had him running never went down, and gave Cotto his first real beating at 147. When Clottey fought Cotto, Cotto was already considered damaged goods, after the Mosley and Margarito fights. Not just that, but Cotto dropped Clottey in the fight.

that is obvious.....hence the hype for his fight has made everyone forget the Pac fight is even going down this wk end.........
