...the reason being? I know it won't be nearly as big a draw as a Pacquiao/Mayweather, but Clottey is no walk
in the park.

I still believe that if both Pacquiao and Mayweather win their respective bouts, we will see Mayweather/Pacquiao
in the summer. It just has to happen. Besides, the summer would draw a bigger crowd which equals more money.

I'll be impressed if Pacman beats Clottey

On a side note:

Mayweather rejects the fight against Pacquiao because he claims Pacquiao uses steroids. Mayweather does,
however, agree to fight Mosley... a boxer who has been caught with steroids before. That doesn't add up.

Clottey doesn't throw enough punches and gases in the later rounds. Pac by decision or late K.O.

And Mosley vs. PBF is on for May! should be a sick fight.

Mosley said he will agree to random blood testing which is why Floyd is going to fight him

This will be a good fight but will lack all the buzz/hype that a Manny-Floyd would have.

The fight has little buzz because everyone is talking about Money May vs. Mosley.

Money May vs. Mosley: 1.7+ million buys.

Manny easily wins this fight.

Manny easily wins this fight.

I wouldn't count Clottey off that easily man. I am a big time Pacquiao fan, but I'm sure that he isn't
overestimating him.

I will say that Mayweather/Pacquiao will happen later this year in the summer, where it can draw more
money and viewers.

Clottey is bigger and is physically stronger, but Manny’s got everything else. Manny has way too much hand and footspeed for most fighters especially Clottey. Clottey is going to come forward against Manny and Manny will hit him every time he comes in. Clottey has a passive defense and leaves his body wide open. Manny will make him pay later in the fight, if he leaves his body wide open.

Money May vs. Pacquiao in the fall or early next year.

Undercard
Antonio Margarito vs. Carson Jones
Alfonso Gomez vs. Jose Luis Castillo
John Duddy vs. Michael Medina

Undercard is kind of [expletive]ty.
Margarito is fighting a bum and Castillo is shot.
