    Trinidad because he holds more defensesand Cotto just moved up in weight but in the end Cottos the better Puerto Rican fighter, and in a fight he would dominate Trinidad.

      Trinidad is. At least at this point! If theyd fought Peak Tito i mean he'd have Knocked Cotto out id think, i was sure of it before but Cotto is closing the gap

          Trinidad right now, I could change my mind in a few years though.

            to make that assesment it would be better to wait until cotto's career is over. thus far cotto's accomplishments do not surpass those of Titos'. not to say he's a not a good fighter, but he needs more fights. trinidad's career is long over, eventhough he still hangs around, but we know what he did in his hey day

              Cotto still has a ways to go, but he's only 27, so he has plenty of time.

                Trinidad was a more devastating knockout puncher, but he is also naturally bigger than Cotto. I like how Cotto carries himself and lets his fighting do the talking. Trinidad talks to much...and doesn't admit it when he knows he lost. I think when Cotto's career is over he will have achieved more.

                  How can one even tell at this point. I can see Cotto becoming better at this point, but Trinidad WAS a great fighter. The only thing I hope for is that Cotto will continue to keep fighting the best and retire once he's faded unlike Trinidad is doing right now

                    A prime Trinidad was a huge draw and up to this point had so many bigger and better fights then Cotto. Just like every said tho, Cotto is still very young. But fighting A Gomez and other nobodys isnt getting him anywhere.
