    He has done pretty well tbh outside of being owned by Mosley, i think he was vastly overated after the Cotto fight tho. "MARG WIL KILL MOSLEY IN JAN" threads proved this.. Cotto fought the exact opposite to what you should do vs Margaritto.

      Actually Cotto fought a good fight considering that Margs took away one of his best weapons which is the left hook to the body. Cotto didn't clinch(probably cause it was hard due to Tony's size) and stayed on the ropes too long.

        Cotto won remember??




        Nope



        Same as Mayweather



        But if you want to look at overall accomplishments, then its a no brainer.
        Cotto is talented no doubt. But those are my opinion if those fights were to happen right now this day.

          It's true.

          Soto ****s all over Margarito.

          He's a real "working class Mexican Champion" who's earned his the hard way.

          And unlike Margarito ; he never cheated to get what he's got.

            Ok then, if he is so overrated. Name me 5 WWs of this generation that have done more than Margarito AT WW. Pretty sure you can find me a list fast since he's so overrated.

                It hasn't been proven though that he cheated in his fights. He got to where he was the hard way too.

                I like Soto but he would get demolished fighting someone with the talent as Cotto.

                  He came along way considering he has virtually zero technical ability. It's all in the chin and his tornado punches. And maybe a little bit of plaster too.

                    Its so easy to be overrated when our at the top a weak division. It was only after Cotto and Mosley that came into the division that they started making him look bad. Cotto was landing shots at will compared to the Lujans and Perez' Margarito was used to fighting. Mosley remember Jan. 24th

                      He has some. His high workrate and his punching angles, but put any guy like Cotto in the same division that Margarito became #1 at he would of done teh same thing if not faster.
