      Juan Manuel Marquez, of course. But JMM vs. Cotto is a different thing, as in a Heavyweight will always beat a Flyweight

        I was debating people saying Cotto is more devastating, which he is not.

            With that said. Marquez is more skilled than Cotto. It takes hell of alot more skill and knowledge to become a successfull counter-puncher than it is to become a body spammer.

              of course cotto should beat pac and marquez. he's a damn welterweight!

              that doesn't mean he's better skilled than marquez.

              i'm a cotto fan and a jmm hater and even i know marquez is better skilled.
              Dude what are you talkin about this is your thread you should read all the posts.

              Marquez is more of a complete fighter which I have stated. Its close but Marquez is just more well rounded than Cotto.

              Cotto is more devestating im opinion. Look at what he does to his opponents after I mean Malignaggi had to have reconstructive surgery, CQuintana was busted up and body wrecked, Even Margarito looked like frankenstein.

              I do think even though marquez is better he doesnt have a better chance at beating pacquiao than Cotto does.

              I dont think Marquez has enough pop to finish Pac But Cotto does and COttos aggressive boxer puncger style is catered to a small pacquiao who wont be able to take the power. marquez gives pacquiao too much time and room to recover which made the difference in their fight

                Even look a the poll I voted Marquez is more skilled but I think Cotto can beat Pacquiao and Marquez cant

                  There is a thing that Cotto doesn't have that makes him not able to finish Pac..... He is a 6 round fighter.

                    I think people confuse Talented and Skilled. Talent is speed, power....etc. Skill is what you do with the talent you have.

                    I would say this about Cotto though. He has beaten guys more talented than him and he is not super talented. He is however more crafty and skilled than many give him credit for.
