the cotto not being able to make weight may have been speculated by many at that time but the rest is true, and i forgot where but there is an interview where roach was asked if cotto wouldnt be able to rehydrate to his desired and he said yes i think he said 150 or 155, ur a very respected poster here so i wont get into a verbal argument with you, i oppologize if my views on things offend or contradict urs in anyway
If Floyd beats Mosley, is it better than Pacquiao's win over Cotto?

YES, because Cotto wasn't the same against Pacquiao, had a **** trainer, very suspect preparation and a bad game plan. Plus he looked bad against limited Clottey.
Cotto when he fought Mosley was at his peak, had a great trainer, a great preparation and was very smart. He used to demolish people.
Mosley just killed Margarito and works with a great trainer/strategist in ****m Richardson.
Still Pacquiao's win over Cotto is in my book better than any of Mayweather's wins before the Mosley fight. Better than the Hatton win or the fight against Fishnet Boy.Comment

Cotto was damaged goods and the fight wasn't even at the WW limit. He was coming off a brutal loss and many said his career was finished.
Mosley is coming off two brutal KO's wins, at 154 and against the #1 at 147. Clearly, without any doubt, Mayweather's victory over Mosley would be far superior to anything Pacquiao has accomplished.
People mention Pacquaio vs Barrera. Well, Barrera was knocked out by Junior Jones in just 5 rounds and lost the immediate rematch as well. He only lost to Pacquiao after his war with Morales. That means Pacquiao's greatest accomplishment in his career was one-upped by a B level boxer against a superior version of the common opponent.Comment

floyds greatest accomplishment was getting a gift decision over castillo who was knocked out not once but twice by javier jauriegi. or was it corrales who clottey dominated then pac dominated him. and don't give me that it was a different weight nonsense floyd is the master at fighting guys not in their proper weight classes and pretending it proved something.Cotto was damaged goods and the fight wasn't even at the WW limit.
