I do agree he is overrated.

Everyone is so used to him hardly getting hit at all that what would be a dominant, easy fight for someone else (ie Trout) becomes a life and death fight for Mayweather because Cotto landed some jabs that bloodied his nose. It's incredible.
But a Cotto win by two points......That's not unpopular. That's just plain absurd. There isn't any way possible that he got remotely close to winning 7 rounds.
Which 7 rounds did you give Cotto?
You have to put that one up.
I apparently only think it wasn't a robbery because I'm American (I'm not American)
The Mayweather-Cotto fight wasn't close at all.

Trout was a far clearer winner in my eyes over Cotto
Really interesting to see how different the two fighters were physically after the 8th. Cotto was physically spent, and Floyd suddenly looked like a new man. While Floyd is a model of energy conservation in the ring, the contrast from that point onwards is still pretty startling. It was downhill for Cotto after that and there was just no way he was going to win the fight.
I thought it was a great fight though, and it was the fight I rewatched the most last year. Not since Castillo has anyway been anywhere near as effective as Cotto was against Mayweather. And yet, it was fascinating to see how Floyd still came out on top despite Cotto doing so much right. A fight that enhanced both guys in my opinion.

He's criminally underrated and would give Jimmy Wilde a run for his money.
