My Take On Cotto vs Clottey.
This is a very good fight. Both will bring it and both are hungry… Cotto has the better experience but Clottey hasn’t suffered a tough loss like Cotto has and his confidence is high along with his skill level being at it’s peek. I don’t think that the Margarito fight has damaged Miguel as many think.
I think Miguel is really going to up his game with the PR day parade this weekend and with him wanting to prove he’s back with a vengeance at the world class level.
Clottey throws a lot of punches and is relentless but I feel Miguel will wisely work his body and place his shots well to wear him down late in the fight. Clottey has yet to prove he can close the show. He has yet to prove he can adapt and regain momentum. He starts good but fades late. He better not do that shit with Cotto.
I think Miguel will display a tight defense and mix some movement along with walking Clottey down. I feel Cotto will be the stronger fighter in the ring that night and with his people there to support him… the hungrier fighter.
Look for the first half of the fight to be pretty competitive, fairly close, and very fun to watch. I think Miguel’s body work, hand speed, and power will take over the 2nd half of the fight I feel he’s more proven on the world class level beating the better fighters. Clottey is dangerous but who’s he really beat?
I could be completely fucking way off but we’ll soon see. I just want to see a good fight. Hard to imagine it will be anything but that.
Cotto UD.
