Joshua Clottey vs Miguel Cotto

Tonight is a significant welterweight battle between two of the best in the division. Both Miguel Cotto and Joshua Clottey are solid top three welterweights who have one thing in common - they both lost to Antonio Margarito. Cotto has defeated current welterweight king and Margarito beater Shane Mosley which gives him a bit of an edge against Clottey who has not faced that level of competition outside of his loss to Margarito. I see this as a very close fight that defines the future of the welterweight division and potentially an opponent for Shane Mosley. Expect this to be very close as both fighters are solid and won't go out lightly. I see this fight going the distance with a decision win for Miguel Cotto. Clottey is solid but Cotto is a force and should get the better shots in this fight. Definitely worth watching and an interesting fight for true boxing fans to enjoy.
