    Cotto is definitely top 10 p4p now

    I was just thinking about it and the only thing keeping Cotto from being top 6-7 is a big name victory. That's the only thing keeping Hatton ahead of him on my list. I'm strongly considering whether or not to put Cotto ahead of Calzaghe, who also has no big wins but has been undefeated forever and a day. Cotto's opposition is as good as Calzaghe's so it's close. I don't know why I didn't have Cotto higher before.

    1) Mayweather
    2) Wright
    3) Pacquiao
    4) Taylor
    5) Hatton
    6) Calzaghe
    7) Cotto
    8) Barrera
    9) Freitas??
    10) Castillo??

    Last two are up for debate. People I'm considering include Freitas (only 1 loss to Corrales), Castillo (strong resume), and of course Hopkins gets on there probably in front of Hatton if he's still fighting.

    What do you guys think about Cotto being on there? Maybe he shouldn't be ahead of Barrera, but I've had Barrera in the bottom half of my list ever since the Pacquiao loss and redemption against Morales.

    You also have to factor in that Cotto knocks almost everyone out. He is the bull that Lacy was supposed to be at SMW.

          he may have the ability but his resume is lacking to be a p4p fighter.

          he's only beaten prospects and a lower-end contender in corley.

          at least beat a top contender/beltholder in your division first.

                    Cotto is a future top p4p fighter, but he hasn't earned the status yet. He'll need to show that he can comete with the top people in the division- which is a very likely scenario.
