For many Filipinos, we ask Who is Joshua Clottey? – He is known as “The Hitter” and “The Grand Master,” Joshua Clottey is one of the few world-class fighters to hail from the African nation of Ghana, joining the great Azumah Nelson and former welterweight champion Ike Quartey.  The Ghanaian was originally scheduled to face Mexico’s Michel Rosales on Jan. 16, but scrapped that bout to get the once-in-a-lifetime chance to tangle with the pound-for-pound king.

Pacquiao and Clottey share one thing in common: Both have fought Miguel Cotto. The Puerto Rican star escaped with a split decision victory over Clottey , who stood his ground and traded bombs with Cotto throughout their fight on June 13, 2009.

Manny Pacquiao – Joshua Clottey world welterweight championship has been announced. The bouts will take place prior to Pacquiao-Clotty at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Saturday, March 13th.
