Better Resume, Marquez or Cotto?

[SnakeVen0m]

Honestly, a Pac win is worth more than anything on Cotto's resume.

JMM and it's not even an argument.

Marquez knocked out Manny Pacquiao. Cotto doesn't have a damn thing on that.

It close Cotto has a great resume, but I think Marquez's is a little better. Cotto has some very good wins but fell short against the best competition he faced for the most part. Although he probably was cheated against Margarito.

JMM has wins over Pacquiao, Barrera, Gervacio, Agaptio Sanchez, Kotey, Peden, Medina, Salido, Gainer, Diaz, and Casamayor, which are all former world champions.
He arguably could/should hold 3 wins over Manny and was robbed against Norwood and John in title fights. His wins over Katsidis and Juarez are also very solid wins. He probably would've had a win over Hamed had he not ducked Marquez.

it is close.. i give the edge to marquez only becuase of the pac ko ...but without it , its about even really...

i think you said you gave JMM the edge 2 years ago before the 3rd and 4th Pac fights (see earlier in the thread). could be a case of mistaken identity, lol.

[S. Saddler 1310]

my memory was good, here it is.

its about equal to me too but jmm edges it out just by a bit....

Boxrec doesn't always have all the facts homeboy.

Cotto barely squeaked by Clottey in a fight many people thought Clottey won.

Trout is a paper champ, best win before Cotto was Rodriguez, who was never a top jmw.

Mayorga had only fought once in two years before being knocked out by Mosley.

Foreman was another paper champ and never beat anyone worth mentioning.

Quintana had never fought anyone up to that point and has been knocked out everytime he loss. Which made his win over Williams not look that good.

Torres had never fought anyone before he fought Cotto and had Cotto looking like he was going to get stopped.

Corley also had Cotto in trouble and that was one of the worse stoppages I've seen.

Bailey had already been stopped by Hurtado, and lost to Corley and Smith before facing Cotto.

Bazan had been stopped by Castillo three fights before facing Cotto.

And last but not least Maussa. He's another Colomian fighter with a padded record and hadn't fought anyone.

Theres a reason Trout, Foreman, Torres, Maussa, and Quintana were undefeated. They hadn't fought anyone.

Kotey, Medina, Salido, Katsidis and Jimenez weren't all great fighters but they were good and had losses on their records because the were matched tough their careers.

JMM stopped one of the guys that beat the **** out of Cotto. Enough said.
