Who's greater, Miguel Cotto or Vitali Klitschko?

Originally posted by Beater_of_ass View PostI voted Vitali as well I think he is underrated as a HW I think he could beat any HW and at ANYTIME in their career. His power and technique are top notch especially for a big man, he is not the best HW ever but I think he could any one of them on any given night. I voted for Vitali because of this but Cotto is my favorite fighter of all time, and I think he had so much potential but Margarito ****ed it up. Cotto had a great showing against Floyd, but his most known for his losses, possibly Vitali too but those were different. One was the **** stoppage against Lewis (who never gave him a rematch) and the other he hurt his shoulder I think it was. Anyway, as I stated I love Cotto but because of Margarito he didn't live up to his potential, sadly.

This is the same Mosley who lost to the bigger Winky Wright in a very close rematch. Didn't 1 of the judges have that fight a draw. Then he comes back to beat Vargas twice, then Collazo, then his fight with Cotto. That was a pretty good Mosley.

DID you know Cotto-Clottey was initially a UNIFICATION fight? Clottey had to vacate though to get Cotto. So Cotto scraped that win and technically was unified champ. It's not his fault he couldn't become number 1 when Mayweather was on vacation and retiring every other month.

Originally posted by El Angel View PostSaying Vitali is greater because he was the best of a weak division just doesn't make sense to me. It is an accomplishment Cotto doesn't have, but beating Mosley is better than anything Vitali has ever done and I honestly don't think it's close.

Originally posted by Miniwheels14 View PostBut saying Cotto is better because he's constantly top 5 of a strong class doesn't make sense either. The truth is, it's impossible to compare both fighters. It's not Vitali's fault his division is the weakest in boxing. And it's not Miguel's fault that he's landed in the top weight classes and lost some fights (some handedly).

Originally posted by El Angel View PostBut you can compare wins and how they looked in defeat though right? Just because they were on different weight classes, doesn't mean they can't be compared, when everything is taken into perspective.
