Clottey v Pacquaio

It seems to me that this fight may yet produce a shock result for millions.You ,of course know what I mean.
The thirty-two year 0ld Ghanaian,Joshua Clottey will take out his 31 year old Filipino opponent,Manny Pacquiao, later today at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.What would be unveiled to many would be a resolute Clottey methodically delivering bombs on his way to upsetting the heralded Pac-man.
Most people envisage an easy payday for Manny,however,Clottey has other ideas -he wants to make a name for himself and reign as long as his compatriot,former 2-time WBC world featherweight and super featherweight champion,Azumah Nelson. So he says that he has trained adequately for this slugfest.
If anything he should get more than encouraged because Pacquaio has been the focus from day one.Nobody has given him a dog's chance.And even the poster for the fight shows his face in a rather bizarre light. As if to demonize him to hang him,while Manny's visage looks spic.You know how people use these below-the-belt techniques to psychologically get people against you.
Well if its only my fertile imagination,i let it pass.On the other hand over 2 billion people watching this fight live will have much to cheer about and in the end..whenever it comes it will be the 5-1 underdog left standing...However if the expected happens I will also take it easy and look for another day for Clottey.
