So Who Has Cotto Beaten To Be The Top Guy At 154???

[Eladio-Mor]

the funny thing is james kirkland and erislandy lara have the most impressive performances in the lat year or so. so i think one of those guys should be ranked above cotto. with that said the king of 154 is sergio martinez. hes the best fighter in both divisions.

You bring up a good point but the fact are Lara lost he also doesn't have a belt.kirkland just rejoined the 154 division after be ko at 160 .sergio can only be ranked at the weight he fights.

Multiple thing with this post.

Martinez hasn't fought at 154 since Feb of 2009.

Kirkland had a great win over Angulo, but Angulo himself is not a title holder and only had one fight in over a year.

Lara, while I do agree was an impressive performance, at the end of the day still got the Loss and williams wasn't a title holder either (and was coming off a brutal KO loss himself).

Too add Lara didn't look impressive earlier in the year against Molina who was coming off almost a years layoff. And, it's not like Molina is a scrub but that has to be taken into account also.

Like I said, talent wise the division is pretty solid. But, accomplishments, resumes/wins in the division it's pretty mediocre with every single top 10 fighter.

The only guys that have been ranked on the top 10 longer than Cotto is Angulo, Dzinziruk and Vanes and those guys have done nothing in the division. Cotto beat Foreman who was ranked #6 at the time after beating Daniel Santos after that he beat Mayorga and Margarito and all his 3 wins have been by KO and he has lost a max of 3 rounds in all those fights combine. So when you think about it and take under consideration the guys below him there is no question he is the kingpin of that division.

Truth and nothing but the truth. I know it hurts but you have to accept reality and stop being so butthurt.

I wouldn't argue martinez beating all those guys.

I love the division though, tons of entertaining guys and so many potential great fights. They just need to start fighting eachother. Kirkland vs Molina next hopefully winner gets Canelo

Cotto, well, not sure what he's going to do so if he doesn't take a top guy sooner or later I'd like to see him drop down in the rankings.

i can agree with most of this, except the martinez fight. i cant see anyone being a challenge. id be interested in seeing him fight kirkland and cotto tho. and later canelo as well. but as of now, i think he beats em all. but none of them wanna fight him. lol.

anyways the division is interesting, but whats the point of interesting if no1 fights each other? lets see what happens next year tho.

Neither Margarito nor Mayorga had any reason to being rank top 20 in the division let alone top 10. So when you think about it and that that under consideration. There is no question, that there is no absolute kingpin of the division.
