Grapevine, Texas — Ghanaian challenger Joshua Clottey is still overweight.
The suspicion that Clottey was still overweight two days before the fight was confirmed when the Ghanaian fighter was spotted by Team Pacquiao member Roger Fernandez jogging at the convention hall while wearing a thermal suit for 45 minutes and then skipping rope.
Clottey was at that time accompanied by four other team mates. Roger narrated, “Masama ang tingin nila sa akin, pero hindi ako umalis (They threw dagger looks at me, but i didn’t leave.)”.
However, at the final press conference Wednesday, Clottey’s Chief trainer Lenny DeJesus claimed that Clottey had made the weight in his bid for Pacquiao’s World Boxing Organization welterweight crown.
