Cotto vs Clottey Analysis

Miguel Cotto wins over Joshua Clottey by a split decision which I predicted that Cotto would easily defeat Clottey by a late round stoppage but I was wrong and I personally think that Clottey won by one to 3 rounds. Clottey just did not do enough to convince the two judges maybe because Cotto outworks him in some rounds and he is just standing and not moving at some point of the fight. But I think Clottey did a good job especially in the second half of the fight where he connects punches like a 1-2 combinations and he really put some pressure to Cotto.

Like some boxing fans I would like to see a rematch between the two fighters but I think Bob Arum would like to put Cotto against Pacquaio so everybody might just forget a rematch between Cotto and Clottey. I think that the Pacman who fight Hatton would easily defeat the Cotto today but we’ll never know because Pacman is not Clottey and vise versa.
