Floyd Fought Far Better Competition Than Cotto: Why the Double Standard?

[King Flawless]

Let me rephrase that in realistic terms:

Clottey: Won a close SD with a slashed eye for 9 rounds.

Margarito: Lost a tough fight that is covered with su****ion

Mosley: Won a close fight, but was a decisive win.

Pacquiao: But it's ok for Floyd to fight him?? LOL smh...

Now what do all these names have in common?

FLOYD'S NEVER FOUGHT ANY OF THEM...

The Clottey win is nothing special and is overrated. Who has Cotto exactly beaten to given such a reputation, a shot version of Judah? Clottey was fighting with one leg. Cotto rugby tackled him and throw rabbit punches.

The Margarito lost was embrassesing, being forced to take two cowardly knees in front of your people and family

Mosley win was controversial. Had the fight been on the West Coast. Mosley would have gotten the nod

Pacman and PBF are closer to size than Cotto and Pac

[freeloada]

Cotto fights all comers at WELTERWEIGHT.. and doesnt pick on guys 2 or 3 weight classes lower than him.. Cotto fights whoever they put in front of him.. even if there is a significant risk.. Mayweather finds an excuse not to fight TOP TIER WELTERS... my favorite one.. i wont fight Cotto cause he's from Puerto Rico.. gotta love Floyd..

[Ravishing]

How does Cotto resume above crap on PBF resume.
Floyd beat 154 Oscar. The same 154 Oscar who handled a drugged up Mosley
Cotto best win is Mosley. Floyd’s best win above 140 is Judah and Oscar

Vargas used steroids against Oscar too, how well did that help for him? LOL...

Look at the guys Oscar fought in his prime:

Tito Trinidad
Shane Mosley
Fernando Vargas
Pernell Whittaker

Since being #1, who has Floyd fought that you'd compare in quality to any of those 4 guys during the time those fights happened?

Mayweather wouldn't dare fight Margarito when Cotto did. He was scared ****less of Marg. *****'s can't deny it.

Cotto has a better WW resume, but overall Floyds is better based on his straight out domination of 130, and beating the 135lb king pin albeit controversial the first time.

with that ****ty body you have, you wouldn't have the time to take a knee on the 1st round of a fight against an average boxer, even without plaster

i still wonder what you're trying to show in your pic. i really hope it isn't your bicep

Why are you changing the topic. Floyd beat 154 Oscar, the same Oscar who handled drugged up Mosley

Cotto beat mosely.. even if it was on the west coast.. dont make excuses for mosely please.. he even knew miguel cotto won the fight..

Pac and Cotto are almost exactly the same size.. except with the natural weight maybe.. but Pac sure as hell has no problem making 147.. He shaved off 2 pounds so he could hope to have some kind of advantage..

thats just ******...

LMAO...ok pal.

Those are all your opinions and you're entitled to have them. Unfortunately, they're not the truth and very, very far-fetched.

I can sit here all day and nit pick Floyd's career, but for what? I actually respect the dude's craft. But you cannot sit there and deny the fact that his level of competition for the last several years didn't reach its potential.

You can mock Cotto all you want, but both him and Mosley have fought the very best Welterweights out there win or lose. Can't necessarily say that for Floyd. His 135lbs days ended more than 7 years ago.
