Man its strange cause Clottey talked such a huge game before and really took it to Judah and Cotto. Then he fights Pacquiao and all of a sudden he's the dudes biggest fan and refuses to engage then after the loss, dissappears from boxing for over a year. Clottey can do some serious damage at the current 147 or even 154 I remember watching the 24/7 and how determined he seemed to put up a good fight. And then, at the beginning of each round he was smiling at Pac like he wasnt getting his ass kicked. At first i thought it was out of good sportsmanship. But round after round i was like why is he being so friendly-- why isn't he trying? I know that was his biggest payday but he didn't have to mail it in like that. |

He would serve as a fairly decent Gate Keeper for the WW division but he'd make a better Punching Bag for other Elite Fighters....

I dont care to see the walking heavy bag Clottey anymore....he would look decent for a couple fights and then lay an egg for a payday against a top name.

When everybody in the welterweight division was scared of Margarito, Clottey was one of the few guys that actually stepped up and fought a great fight against Margarito.

So right before the Manny bout Arum tied Clottey to another 2 years on his contract, then benched him ever since?! I understand Clottey did have a fight scheduled but got injured jogging, heard nothing since...
SUSPECT! |
