I understand that Clottey is bigger and stronger than Pacquiao, but was there any chance Manny was going to lose this one? He was the overwhelming favorite. I understand that upsets do happen, but this was too far a reach. Vegas was betting on Pacquiao, with overwhelming odds. It was THAT lopsided.
To be fair to the other guy, it DID go the distance. I would say that’s because Clottey is physically superior to anybody Pacquiao has ever faced. That’s why if Pacquiao ever fights Mayweather, I think Manny’s going to lose that one. Physically, nobody is more dominant than African-Americans. Basketball, Baseball, Football, Boxing. They’re faster, stronger, and in this case with Mayweather and Pacquiao, more technically skilled.
