Pacquiao vs Clottey Fight Soon

From the supposed Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight, as everybody knows, it's now Pacquiao vs. Clottey.

As much as I felt the threat to Pacquiao having to face Mayweather, I now feel the same level of regret for Clottey's future boxing career in this sport. It's so obvious that Clottey is the underdog not only in terms of boxing belts but also of boxing skills. It would have been a challenge for the world's greatest boxing champion if Pacquiao faced Mayweather.


Joshua Clottey is 33 yrs old from Ghana and has a record of 35 wins, 3 losses of which are 20 KOs. He is said to be a tough fighter with good defense. But the question is - will he be up to par with Manny Pacquiao's fist, quick jabs, and swift feet? Moreover, Clottey just lost in his last fight against Miguel Cotto last June whom Manny Pacquiao recently knocked out.

Admittedly, Clottey is no easy task to hurdle as Freddie Roach himself aknowledged him as "dangerous" having never been knocked out. But I think he'll certainly be overwhelmed with Pacquiao's speed and power come March 13, 2010 in Pacquaio vs. Clottey. And there's always the possibility of a first time. :)
