belts don't mean anything now a days, it's who you fight.
what's better,
Winning a vacant belt against an undefeated Carlos Quintana, in a debut at 147, or moving up in weight to challenge the WBC 140 belt holder, Arturo Gatti (mayweather)?
and then there are also title defenses.
what's better, defending your title against Mosley, or defending your title against Baldomir?
it's about who you fight!

Ricky Hatton 43-0 @ 147 W TKO 10
I say they are pretty comparable resumes in the last fights....
Paulie and Chop Chop are = IMO
Quintana is a better fight to take at 147 then Shamba Mitchell.
They both beat Zab
Shane and Oscar are both big names on their respective resumes. Floyd went up to 154 to fight Oscar at his best weight.
Tony>Ricky IMO I give credit to Cotto for taking the fight at the time no one wanted a piece of Tony. He did lose and Floyd did win his bout so that is what it is....Lefty
I thought that this thread was about Cotto and a vacant belt.....did Cotto somehow become Calzaghe? OH, it's because Calzaghe retired undefeated in another weightclass and has absolutely nothing to do with Cotto; I understand now-
WOW!! great thread!
:thanks:
Don't worry, Mayweather fans are just angry because their favorite fighter won't stop being a "0" protecting coward. Their favorite thing to say is "Mayweather offered to fight..." or "Mayweather would have...", I could care less.
Listen I'm not a Mayweather fan, I'm a big Cotto fan, but I realize that Mayweather is the greater fighter of the two and more than likely would've beat Cotto and still could. However, sorry to say Mayweather fan, you're boy isn't a fighter anymore. Why don't you find someone else who actually fights to root for, and stop trying to poke holes in other fighter's resumes. Bottom line is, at the end of his career people will have fonder memories of Miguel Cotto because he represents what is good about boxing and Mayweather represents what's wrong.

Jennings was a very poor opponent.
Who..like 37 y/o Shane Mosley.?
Judah is Cotto's biggest win besides old-man Mosley.
Cotto's overrated ass has been destroyed..It's all downhill for him now.
Another Rican down the toilet.
oh u mean the 37 y/o that knock out ur baby boy??
accept that this will be the year of cotto fighting for million$$$ meanwhile ur tornado will be fighting for $19.95 in some cheap bar. his carrer is OVER
So So true :boxing:
BP

oh yeah. i remember mosley saying NO to mayweather. SAD
Why the shots at Mayweather???
Its not his fault Gatti and Baldimir were the CHAMPIONS.
oh man, i didn't mean to pull the trigger on money may! lord knows what mess that brings!
well, Cotto's recent fight for the vacant WBO 147 title, was probably the easiest to set up, probably because he has had a WBO belt before (WBO 140), and maybe because the WBO is located in San Juan, Puerto Rico? After all, the other 2 puerto rican champs (Calderon, Lopez) are current WBO champs in their respective divisions.
