Floyd Mayweather Jr:
27(out of 39 total bouts) fights at Super Featherweight including Taking on Genaro Hernandez with less than 20 pro bouts previously defeated only by a prime Oscar De La Hoya, Took the hype out of Angel Manfredy(B-Hop vs Pavlik style[even worse with a KO]), beat Gerena to defend his WBC SFW title(Gerena was 6-1 with the 1 loss coming from Genaro Hernandez in his last 7 bouts), being underdog against prime undefeated Diego Corrales, Jesus Chavez who only had 1 loss to a prime Julio Diaz
4 fights at Lightweight including 2 wins over the # 1 Lightweight prime Jose Luis Castillo, Decision over Vic Sosa(who Cotto was hyped for beating at 140), Phillip N'dou who had 30 KO's in 32 Bouts with only 1 loss,
3 bouts at Jr Welterweight including a fresher version of Corley who only had 2 losses, Bruseles who was training with Cotto for the fight and Cotto went on record saying they're confident blah blah blah TKO 8 i think with a body shot(called out Tszyu, Mosley, and De La Hoya [DLH wasn't interested, Mosley had a toothache, Tszyu then lost to Hatton]), beat Arturo Gatti for the WBC JWW title to become champ in 3 diff weight classes
5 fights at Welterweight, Mitchell(okay no threat), Zab Judah(top 5 WW atm just lost his Ring/Lineal title to Baldomir), Baldomir Ring/Lineal WW champ coming in with a 8 year win streak and was supposed to be too big for Floyd and was labeled a "WW threat" by many of the same ******s who are discrediting that win now including the biggest ****** of them all, Brian Kenny. Ricky Hatton was in his prime and undefeated and to a lot of boxing fans, Mayweather "had no chance" and people kept bringing up how it "took Floyd 24 rounds to beat Castillo" and "only 4 rounds for Hatton" and "Castillo has never been TKO'ed by a body shot" blah blah blah TKO 10...
1 bout at Jr Middleweight vs Oscar De La Hoya with Oscar picking everything but Floyd's trunks, and of course 154 being Oscar's best weight atm.
I'm not even going to diss Cotto...but I want to live to see the day that Cotto 'cherrypicks' his way up to Super Middleweight(which would be his 5th weight class)
Until then, keep comparing Cotto's WW reign to Floyd's WW stint. Be very proud to say that a natural WW took more risks than a former Super featherweight, because that's the least he can do.
