Whos the better boxer? Oscar or Cotto?

[eyeloveboxing]

Oscar > Cotto in boxing skills

I still say 35 yo Oscar beats prime Cotto.

[Silencers]

DLH in his prime was a better boxer, no doubt about it in my mind.

[irishjohn88]

Oscar is, as much as i hate to say it because the way hes choosing alot smaller fighters now a days, he is a better boxer then Cotto

[FIGHTING_FLIP]

oscar without a doubt,
forget about all this **** with manny at the moment...
look at what oscar has done the man is a true legend in the sport and should be appreciated for his success

WORD...people forget that oscar was a straighT BEAST in his prime

[nickphilli]

oscar by far now and in his prime..his left jab is way better than cottos, in his prime he is probably the best technical boxer the sport has seen since sugar ray leanord..yes better than mayweather too(however mayweather is a better evasive fighter) but in all around skill there hasnt been really anyone you can say is better technically than oscar in the last 15-20 years

Oscar was a better boxer in his prime. Oscar certainly could have achieved more throughout his career had he been a bit smarter in the ring, but there is no denying his talent.

Cotto is a very skilled fighter himself however.

[Xyei]

Yea, I do. It's faster, it's probably of comparable power, although that's impossible to know for sure, and he just simply lands it more. I think his jab would have the bigger impact on the fight of the two jabs. That being said, my money would still probably be on Oscar.

To each his own. When Oscar uses his jab I think it is much better than Cotto's.

[fragilety]

oscar, far better jab, he would also beat him with that jab

[MELLY-MEL...]

prime for prime? oscar, hands down!

[MaYaN_SuN]

Cotto beat Mosley, something Oscar never could do. And Mosley looked and fought as if he was in his prime against Cotto

lol WTF has come of this Forum??

But to stay on topic, that wasn't the same Mosley.

Prime Mosley and Prime Oscar lay Cotto out, on his back.
