    I thought Cotto, but plaster or no plaster, in my opinion, he is not prime post-Margarito.

      I also thought Hatton, since Ricky was supposed to be "***IN MASSIVE" @ 140, and Pac fought Hatton at 140.

      But I voted Márquez. No if or buts about Márquez being top and prime when they fought.

          Prime top opposition.

          I would have to say Joshua Clottey earlier this year.

          Although Pacquiao was favored by the whole world to widely UD Clottey. That's just how good Pacquiao is.

          I would have to say Joshua Clottey. He was and still a legit WW for any welterweight out there. I think Clottey would be a 50-50 fight for anyone outside of Mayweather and Pacquiao.

            Clottey was in his prime and so was Cotto. Dumbass thread.

              I made this thread because Floyd fans basically dared me to, since I made a similar thread regarding Floyd first AND I think Floyd's last top/prime opponent was Castillo, back in 2002.

                Cotto was damaged goods.


                Clottey was his last good win though. But it's all good because Clottey was also his last fight before taking on another bum in Cotto or Margarito on November.

                  Floyd's last good win was Shane Mosley.

                  If it wasn't Mosley. Then Pac's last good win was Marquez in 2008.

                    The polls were regarding top opposition in their prime.

                    Mosley is nowhere near prime in 2010.

                      Barrera who people were trying to ban from the sport (with the metal plate in his head) which caused a lot of distractions along with that forest fire that wiped out his training camp. Bad style clash regardless though.
