    Cotto.
    Cotto lost in the fight of the year in perhaps one of the best welterweight showdowns ever. He went down on his shield. And he's still better than all of the other welters out there except for the man who beat him and maybe Paul Williams(Hey HBO, how about Cotto-Williams in early 2009?)
    Pavlik just lost a shot at getting the only real superfight for him on the horizon. Abraham-Pavlik will be a good fight but its importance is diminished after the defeat. He was utterly destroyed by a past his prime 43 year old. He has shown that he is one dimensional and can't fight when someone gets on the inside because of his lankiness.
    Cotto's defeat came after a war, Pavlik's defeat came after a one-sided ass kicking by a middle aged man.

      pavlik and cotto will both come back strong.

      cotto will beat everyone 154 down except for williams/margarito

      pavlik will dominate 160 and reign

      both guys are in their 20's and they have one loss...

      of course their coming back

        Cotto will, because Cotto's a bad ass and actually put up a fight. Pavlik just kept getting punched after punch... Cool, Pavlik is the moving heavy bag

        Pavlik does his best Tarver impersonation.

          I think cotto will be the one to bounce back stronger because he was a dethrowned champ unlike Palvik, Palvik lose to BHop was a no bearing fight because no Championship belt at stake. and surely Palvik is still the man to beat at 160lbs Division.

            Pavlik got his ears boxed off, but Cotto got the fight beat out of him. He has the longer road back.

              Cotto is a better fighter with skills, i believe he can come back from a KO loss.

                But Pavlik will never be the same - he's ruined psychologically. He'll have nightmares about that fight for the rest of his life.
                No baby, Palvik was just beaten down at catchweight of 175lbs division. and he was not KOed by Bhop, while Cotto was ugly ruined by margarito at his best weight Division in11 round TKO.

                Palvik will still be the best palvik at 160lbs Division.

                  I think it's a wash. Cotto was much more competitive, but then he got the living hell beat out of him and quit. Pavlik suffered a beating, but at least he hung in there. Both of them are young and they'll both be back, but I think Miguel has more comp at WW. And Kelly still has his two titles.

                    He will beat the Rubio's of the world but not the Abraham, Calzaghe, Dawson & Hopkins of boxing.
                    Palvik is not ruined baby. because if this two (Bhop & Palvik) fight at 160lbs division probably Bhop has no chance in winning the fight.

                    While Cotto was totally ruined by Margarito. that's why he is the one to bounce back stronger because He was dethrowned. while Palvik is still a champion at 160lbs division.
