      behind manny and floyd, in the last 5-6 years Cotto has been the next biggest draw in the U.S.

        It doesn't even matter, he would have beat both of them UD.

              cotto is my favorite fighter, and im still 100% sure floyd would have/will fought him if it wasnt for arum.

              Margarito I'm not so sure with. I think his style would have been annoying as hell for floyd to deal with back in the day (still favor floyd in the matchup, but it makes sence he would avoid the fight).
              Now tho we know Margs is a joke. He had his 15 min of fame until he got busted for illegal handwraps and destroyed by faded mosley.

                he probably would but that reasoning is ******ed.

                You need to actually beat someone to pick up that trophy. Can't just go around and wait until there comes someone whos favored against you. You need to actually beat other fighters.
