Who has more heart and better opposition - Cotto or Mayweather

mayweather fought oscar de la hoya so his resume is better. we can just x-ray them both to see who has a bigger heart; the logistics in getting that to happen could prove to be quite the undertaking.

I'd say Floyd has faced better opposition people only hate on him because of his welter stint and he beat the lineal and former lineal champs there before going for big pay days and even went up to 154 to face DLH. As for heart I'd give it to Floyd again he's fought through broken hands and a busted shoulder to still win fights and when his decision over Castillo was disputed he went back and fought him again....Cotto has a lot of heart but the Margarito beating really puts a big downer on him for heart IMO

Mayweather is the greater fighter

This is why Cotto fans are the most dumbest boixing fans. Mayweather fought Judah way before Cotto did. Mayweather didn't resort to dirty tactics like low blows to beat Judahjust shows how many people actually follow the sport on this forum and how many read stats and obviously read them wrong...... floyd has the better resume overall....people seem to forget that cotto has only fought at 2 weight classes....floyd has fought at 5....that alone trumps cotto's.....and let's remember all of the big names who openly ducked floyd....hatton in 2005, shane and oscar in---well, just put any year in prior to 2007.....you could even say winky wright in 2005---zab judah in 2005---you could argue kosta, but i feel in those circumstances i won't put him...gatti ducked floyd when gatti had a lot of momentum on his side, back in 1998-----acelino freitez ducked floyd also back in 2001 and 2002....cassamayor, not so much...i really dont' know that fight didn't happen.... but floyd openly insulted cotto at a training camp and claimed he would lose to floyd if he fought him.....cotto's team and bob arum squashed that quick didn't they...add to this, cotto being in attendance of mayweather/bruseles and mayweather/gatti, scoping out floyd and keeping his mouth shut, like he is still doing to this day.....i'm tired of giving this history lesson to people....floyd will fight cotto, shane, or pacquiao next---we'll see what he does to them...beat either one of their asses he will do though.... floyd has never taken kness, because he has never been in trouble like that....which is why he has been so dominant.....cotto has fought through adverse situations but i can't compare their hearts because first of all, they are both in a brutal sport..... so when comparing hearts---you have to take into account---cotto fighting through injuries like cuts, broken noses, knockdowns and you have to take into account----floyd fighting at 5 weight classes, fighting with injuries like broken hands, injured rotator cuffs, broken ribs, and fighting guys who outweight him by 15 to 20 lbs, and fighting through good shots landed on him......and let's not forget his ego, pride, and confidence---he has called out publicly many of the top fighters----and they ducked him either openly or behind the scenes......

Overall, Mr boat buyer has put in better work. His bullshit the last few yrs has made cats forget about his dominance at lower weights. Cotto outdoes him at 140-147 tho. Cotto got more heart now, but Mr boat buyer was a beast BITD.

There's not a single name greater than Shane Mosley in Mayweather's resume. Cotto has fought the much better competition.

View Poll Results: Who has a bigger heart and had better opposition Cotto 39 69.64% Mayweather 17 30.36% Damn!!!!

he has then why does he get criticized so much for not fighting anyone OWNED Prime Corrales would have beaten Miguel Cotto and Castillo would have had a big shot at doing it too. Oh almost forgot, Margarito ko'd Cotto without any evidence of "plaster" ;) don't think so.... PS: Mayweather would have beaten Michael Jennings, Gomez, Maglinaggi, Mosley and Clottey too... would would would but never did.....

How has Cotto fought better opposition??? If that was so, he would have won fighter of the year award by now and be considered as an ATG Get your Head Out Your Ass. Cant You Wait Till The Man Hangs Em Up To Consider Him An AtG.

my v0te g0es t0 C0tt0 definately has m0re heart &+ better 0pp0siti0n it takesz heart t0 stay in the game &+ n0t use the wh0le 'n0 c0mpetiti0n' as a fake retirement excuse im n0t a huge fan 0f mayweather nd it has n0thing t0 d0 with me being rican i jus dis like a whinerrr nd he d0es enuf 0f it the man has SKILL n0 d0ubt ab0ut it but heart ?! get real .

If this poll came up before the Maragrito fight I would say without a doubt it's Cotto, but since he took a knee and cowardly walk away towards his corner like a bloodied bitch, I'll say Mayweather. Just my opinion...seriously

Cotto has taken on better opponents and way more dangerous opponents at 147...fact.... Aint seen mayweather in with some1 in WW that could actually catch him alot...so not sure...but i think cottos got a damn good chin and heart....

Cotto is taking a big lead on the polls

Because most people here are Ricans or Mexicans. Hence why he gets criticized so much. Mayweather is considered as ATG, he has won fighter of the year award TWICE. 3 lineal titles. Champion in 5 weight classes. Cotto is not conisdered as an ATG. Has not and will not win fighter of the year award. No lineal titles, champion in two weight classes. The main people who criticized Mayweather are Mexican and Rican boxing fans. FACT They are jealous of Mayweather pretty much :sucks: I am what you call a rican and i apreciate floyd's talent ,on the other hand he has no heart to fight guys like margo(pre plastter days),Cotto before margo or Mosley as many times as he has called him out

He whose name should not be mention. I beg for forgiveness.... :lol1: You are forgiven grasshopper, and wiser now than you were just a short time ago. :fingersx:

Mayweather fought better opposition. Mayweather also has a better heart, he was never forced to take two knees. And he never quit like a cowardly manner like Cotto You my good sir, are a dumbarse.

What about The Great Tye Fields? :D Tye fields could take on Cotto, Mayweather, Pacman and Margarito (with plaster) all at the same time and would knock them all out in 20 seconds MAX. the almighty Tye Fields has been resurrected after he "so called lost" vs Monte (but he actually slipped and couldn't get up due to the gloves) and is as dangerous as ever May Tye(god) bless us all.

How dare you mention his name amongst those of mere mortals!!:joke:He whose name should not be mention. I beg for forgiveness.... :lol1:
