Expect a Phenomenal Fight Tonight Between Manny Pacquiao and Joshua Clottey

Manny Pacquiao tends to put on the most exciting fights in boxing. Expect tonight to be no different when he takes on Joshua Clottey. Clottey is one of the most established top ranked welterweights in the world today. Pacquiao is the pound for pound king. This is a huge fight even though Floyd Mayweather is not in it with Pacquiao. Clottey has proven he can hang with the best welterweights in the world including Miguel Cotto and Shane Mosley. Clottey could also come into the fight weighing a good 10 - 15 pounds more than Manny. Many are expecting Pacquiao to walk all over Clottey but this is not as cut and dry as that. Pacquiao greatness will be tested and taken to new levels if he can take out Clottey with the same ease that he has handled other recent opponents. Remember, this is Pacquiao's first true welterweight fight. His victories against Oscar De La Hoya and Miguel Cotto were at catch weights below the welterweight limit. So, this is uncharted territory in many ways for Manny Pacquiao but once again he proves that he is up for any challenge. Just be sure not to miss this fight.
