Is Cotto, Clottey, Margarito : cherry picked fight?

[Elotero]

Margarito lose to Mosley and Mosley lose to Cotto and Cotto lose to Margarito.

Both of their losses is against the big names of 147, there is no ashamed on that. With that said they both have wins against the same big names on 147 also. And only PAc have wins on two of them without losing. And thats big accomplishment.

Cotto? Absolutely not. Clottey and Margarito? Absolutely yes.

I disagree. Cotto was definetly cherry picked! Roach said it b4 the fight and that was my first thought when I heard it. Especially when they could've fought the #1 WW at the time who even came to the gym begging and was willing to move to 140 for it. I don't care if he lost to Cotto(by1 or 2 rounds), he was just coming off a KO of the guy that brutalized Cotto. At that time, he was definetly seen as the more dangerous fight. U don't pass over an almost equally equitable fight with the best, to fight a guy that looked bad in his last 2 fights and not call it cherry picking.

Cotto may have been cherry-picked but he was a formidable opponent and an excellent matchup. Great matchup, in fact.
