    Boxing fans only please! PBF vs Cotto - Legacy

    In 50 years, whose legacy would be held in higher esteem, PBF's or Cotto's.

    PBF's "0" and a resume which includes Genaro Hernandez, Emmanuel Augustus, Jesus Chavez, JCC, Corrales, Judah, Gatti, DelaHoya, Hatton and JMM

    or

    Cotto's willingess to take on anyone at JWW and WW with names like Quintana, Malignaggi, Judah, Mosley, Margarito, Clottey, Pacquiao on his resume.

    In other words, do you like Mayweather's unbeaten record or Cotto's take all comers attitude?

    Mayweather's, simply because he's had the better career. By quite a bit.

        Cotto's resume is almost at par with Floyd, but I give it to Floyd for now.. Let us see how will Cotto bounce back after his recent fight against Pacman. If he gets another title and could make some decent streak of wins I'll reconsider.

            right now..I say Floyds..but Cotto has a very impressive resume as well.
            Im basing this off style though...
            lets take into consideration if Floyd fights(and wins) against Mosley/Pac this year..then Floyd will be way higher than Cotto...but I have to see how this year plays out for both fighters...

              In WW division, Cotto by far has a better resume. Overall, you have to give it to Floyd. I'm still hoping that Cotto comes back stronger and better. He has to fight Margarito again and beat him IMO, and hopefully he gets a chance to fight Floyd. If only they can make a fight with Cotto vs Floyd in March 13, now that would be epic.

                Legacy wise, both got their share, IMO, but in different ways. For those who like skillz, art, and all that, Floyd should be ur guy. For those who like boxing as let's c who the better man is, no matter "what", Cotto is ur man. We are lucky for been witnesses of a great generation of boxers with credentials of HOF. Not just this two, but Pac, Barrera, Morales, Trinidad, Delahoya, Calza', BHop etc. It's going 2 b fun sitting at da bar in 40 yrs + and talk all this **** we saw to da comming Gen. U know da same wat granpa did about Robinson, Ali etc...

                    FLOYD is ahead right now but Cotto can still catch up if Floyd continue to fight hapless lightweights and Cotto beats a few more credible opponents and a 154 belt
