Cotto Promotions vs GBP, TMT and TR.
Much as I love Cotto, there is no conceivable (for me) way he's gonna' stack up next to Sugar Ray Leonard in an historic sense .

I think a Martinez victory will place Cotto on par the same legacy standings as guys like DLH and Mosley. Boxers you can make a case for being great, if not borderline. Should he somehow miraculously win the MW belt and go on to successfully defend it(or draw) against Floyd then maybe, just maybe....

There is no realistic fight that cotto can win to become an ATG,,
ATG status is for a career body of work.. Cotto is a HOFer but not an ATG...
Even with a win over serg, his career resume doesnt compare to guys like manny, pernell, srl, srr,...
Cotto would have to do some crazy stuff late in his career to be considered an ATG, like beating serg, floyd rematch, beating GGG, and Canelo... Highly doubtful it all happens for cotto..
He had a good career, huge fights, tons of money, just not an ATG

3 division champ
wins over prime pauli, clottey, zab, near prime shane, corley, torres, pinto, maussa,
His whole career from 03-present he has basically fought the best available competition and beat numerous prime undefeated fighters,,, He is clearly a HOFer, I dont even think its debatable,, ATG no he is not, as he was 1-3 in his four biggest fights
