    I don't think it's a far stretch at all to say Cotto's had the tougher resume as of late. Fighting Mosley, Margarito, and Clottey in the span of not even a 2 year mark says a lot IMO. That's not to say there's a black cloud over Pac's resume either, but I think its safe to say Pac was heavily favored 2 out of those 3 fights as with Cotto all three were toss ups, and for good reason too.

    But hey, everyone's got an opinion.
    pacquiao fought barrera (#1 126) , marquez (#2 126) and morales (#2 130) in a space of a year and half from the end of 2003 to the beginning of 2005.

    if you want to talk about the last 2 years.

    he fought the #2 guy at 130 , the #1 guy at 140 and another top 3-4 guy at 135.

              Not really. So what, Pacquiao has a better resume than Cotto. That doesn't mean that Pac can beat Cotto. There is no ownage in this thread at all.

                  Correct, but I still don't see how Pacquiao's resume is overwhelmingly beyond Cotto's truthfully. At WW alone Cotto's fought the who's who of the division with only 1 loss in that time frame. Both have fought tough fighters and both have 1 loss on their resume dating back the last 4-5 years if you want to go back that far. Pac, Barrera, Marquez, and Morales were all current and former champs, as Zab, Mosley, Margarito, and Clottey were as well in all.

                  Again, it's based on what the individual sees as being a better resume. Personally, I think Cotto's fought more of a variety of styles with losing just 1 of those fights.

                    pacquiao was the #1 guy at 112 , 126 , 130 and now 140.

                    cotto has NEVER been the #1 guy in his division.

                    pacquiao has beat 3 guys considered top 10 p4p at the time he fought them.

                    cotto has NEVER beat a guy in the top 10 p4p when he fought them.



                    cotto has a good resume. it's not fair to compare him to pacquiao's though.

                    pacquiao suffers from the fact that most of his wins come with relative ease.

                    people tend to think less of an opponent when one wins so easily.

                    floyd and roy suffered from the same problems. their wins came so easily that it's easier to diminish or discount the opponent.

                    cotto struggles with almost every decent fighter he faces so it makes it seems like he's fighting the best competition.
