Pacquiao VS. Clottey - A Post-Fight Special

With the Pacquiao - Clottey fight just culminating in an almost landslide victory for the Pacman himself, it is inevitable people are going to speculate.

Fight aficionados all over Facebook are already deeming the fight "staged" and "boring" because the fight was lackluster [or to state the obvious... deadbeat]. To some, the fight would be remembered as the day that Clottey held together his arms and covered his face. It's one thing to wish the fight ended in an absolute K.O. but it's another to watch a man merely defend himself during the 12-round bout. Clottey looked nothing more than Pacquiao's sparring partner. Come to think of it, they looked like BFFs in the ring. To quote someone from the web: "Watch out, Clottey might soon come to the Philippines as the next endorser of San Miguel Beer."

Scary how the last statement could easily become true after we saw De La Hoya's famous drink ads. - Carlo Soriano
