Topic: Ghana People will likely support Manny?

[LiamLee]

Kofi said that Ghana is a small country (23 M population), at least compared to the Philippines, and that the Clotteys are quite known.  He mentioned that he had 2 other brothers – “Tenda” and “Ike”.  In fact he said that Ike, also a boxer will be fighting in the undercard.  This last bit of information I forgot to ask where he got it and I cannot verify.  I checked Boxrec and found a Thunder Clottey and an Ishmael Clottey – both from Ghana.  I don’t know if he was referring to these 2 boxers.

Moving on, I asked Kofi why he wasn’t supporting his countryman like most Filipinos will support Pacquiao.  His answer surprised me.

“Joshua Clottey is arrogant and disrespectful.  In fact people that I know from Ghana want him to lose.  Manny Pacquiao is humble and that’s why he is respected”.
