.A few more rnds with MP and JC is dead meat. Even though JC is the natural welter who during the fight, had the obvious advntg in wt, size & strength, he was too cautious. He will go down if MP landed a clean shot on him, JC knew that. When he opened up in 1 of the rnds, he got shot plenty by MP. Even JC's own trainer told him to go for it, but he doubted himself. His turtle shell dfnse and reluctance to let his punches fly saved him from being KOed or bruised. JC had the strength & the punching power but it may prove fatal 4 him, after he openened up to attack, since MP is so excellent in exchanging blows. Any fool who became bold & traded blows with MP ended lying on the canvas. At least JC went thru 12 rnds & still kept his reputation as not being KOed his entire career, but he should've exerted more effort for he was d bigger guy after all. Clottey was very2 disappointing. Kudos to MP, he actually fought a near-middleweight opponent! Manny Pacquiao, even more an ATG!
