Clottey is a good puncher, it's just that the way his style is he doesn't let his hands go enough and he's not some Trinidad type finisher by any means so you don't see him KO dudes at the top level like that. nikkas is making it seem like I put Paulie Malinaggi on that list.

Clottey throws quick compact punches, Ya'll don't remember those uppercuts he was landing on Margarito in the early rounds :leon:

But nikkas is nitpicking shyt really. My whole point was that Cotto's chin was tested more at 147 than it was at 154 and I really don't see how nikkas can argue against that but :manny:

He's never KO'd or TKO'd ANYBODY of significance, ever.

He's an ok puncher, that's it.

Broner weighed in at 133.5 they talkin bout the fight might get thrown in the bushes:beli:

:snoop:

All that shyt talking he does, bytch can't even be professional enough to weigh in CLOSE to the junior lightweight limit

3.5 is a LOT to be over, he wasn't trying.

The manager of junior lightweight challenger Vicente Escobedo has threatened to pull out of Saturday night's HBO-televised WBO title bout after beltholder Adrien Broner came in at 3.5 pounds above the 130-pound division limit at Friday afternoon's weigh-in.

WBO President Francisco "Paco" Valcarcel said that Broner (23-0, 19 knockouts) will be allowed to face Escobedo (26-3, 15 KOs), who came in at 130 pounds to Broner's 133.5, but that he already has lost his crown at the scales.

"We might not take the fight. He's the champion, and he's got to make weight. That's not our problem. We're in his hometown and he's got all of the unfair advantages," said Escobedo's manager, Rolando Arellano.

"Yet he has two hours and he's refusing to make weight? He said up on the scales that he can't make weight? Then he's got a problem, because we made weight. We satisfied all of our obligations. So we'll see what we can work out."

If Escobedo takes the fight and is victorious, Valcarcel said that he will be the new titleholder. If Broner wins, Valcarcel said that he will be named the No. 1 contender to the title owned by WBO lightweight titleholder Ricky Burns (34-2, 9 KOs) of Scotland. Burns has a defense opposite Kevin Mitchell (33-1, 24 KOs), of England, on Sept. 22.

"Broner has lost the title on the scales. If Broner wins, the title will be vacant because he can not keep the belt since he was overweight," said Valcarcel. "If Escobedo wins, then he becomes the champion. If Broner wins, then he will become No. 1 at 135 pounds and become the mandatory for Ricky Burns."

unprofessional shyt:upsetfavre:....i dislike this young nikka even more

HBO aint gonna like this shyt, maybe a few years ago this would fly, but they will try to bury him, even Floyd had to apologize to Merchant, Broner is truly trying derail his career before the train even get on track.
