    Whos win was more impressive Cotto Calzaghe

    Both fougth great fights Calzaghe exhibited he is defintely the best at 168, but the knock is can he beat someone whos not going places but been there! (and an old eubanks who was on his way out doesnt count...

    Cotto showed he is more then a brawler and used his tools to his advantage..

    Overall i gained way more respect for Cotto the last 2 weeks then Calzaghe your thought>

    Calzaghe was wayyyyyyyyyyyyy more impressive.

    Cotto had a close tough fight with Mosley, impressive, but not when you compare it to Calzaghe's.

      Hmmmm, outclassing a hungry young fighter who was a two-belt champion vs. a competitive fight with an old fart on his way out and you spend the whole of the last round running?

      I guess if the question was "who had the more impressive twelfth round?" then the question would be even easier.

        So Cotto beating an old Mosely doesn't count and Calzaghe beating an in prime Kessler doesnt count. Calzaghe outboxing rather than just brawling apparently doesnt count either.
        You could at least try to hide your obvious bias.

            Both great wins and nothing should be taken away from Cotto for beating an obvious great in SSM but in Calzaghe's case he was the 'old man' beating the prime dangerous contender therefore no contest.

            Calzaghe's win is the most impressive.
