    Zab Judah and Cotto are close so it goes to the one with the best record.
    ZAB: Clottey
    Cotto
    Mayweather
    Baldomir
    Spinks
    Cotto: Margarito
    Mosley
    Clottey
    Quintana
    Judah

        Mosley and is not even close. You guys need to get Cotto's **** out your mouths.

        Check this out/

        147:
        Prime De La Hoya
        Prime Forrest
        Prime Forrest
        Collazo
        Prime Cotto
        Prime Margarito
        Prime Berto(Jan 30)

        Cotto:

        Prime Quintana
        Judah
        Mosley
        Prime Margarito
        Prime Clottey
        Prime Pacquiao(Former 106lber)

        With a straight face, name one fighter on Cotto's WW res who is better than prime WW Forrest.

        Thank you.

          true, mosley has a great welterweight career.. but I think we are talking about recent times. you know (as of late) and De La Hoya > Forrest.

            It's more thinking of their career as a whole. Not really who you think is the best welterweight right now, but who you think has been in the ring with the best opponents throughout their entire career, regardless of if they won or lost.

              You should just ask between Cotto, Judah, Mosley, Pacquiao and Mayweather. All the others aren't needed.

                I'd say Mosley, simply because no one Cotto has fought is on the level of prime De La Hoya and probably not on the level of Forrest. Add Cotto and Margarito and he's pretty good.

                Was Margarito on that list? If not he should be, almost just for being the only one to fight Paul Williams.

                Cotto
                Williams
                Clottey
                Mosley
                Cintron

                Goes to show just how embarrassing Floyd's resume at welterweight actually is, that all these guys have been fighting each other and he hasn't fought one of them.
