If Cotto beats Pacquiao does he ranked above Mayweather?

[savorduhflavor]

Chico was no elite fighter. Very good, had some great fights with Castillo but that don't make you an elite fighter. You call Chico an elite fighter, who next Judah?

Chico was elite...? He was a good, solid fighter though and a great win in Floyd's resume...but elite?

Floyd/Chico happened in January of 2001.

At the end of the year 2000 Diego Corrales was the number 5 pound for pound fighter in the world.

Floyd completely and utterly dominated the $5 P4P fighter in the world.

I rest my case.

jlc? .....

Good win, but was not a dominant champ when Mayweather beat him, was it his first defence, and did not do too much at lightweight overall. Undisciplined, ate too much and seem to take it easy on training.

JLC and Corrales, maybe comparable to Cotto's best wins, but not better, and should he beat Pacquiao, then it not even close.

Beating the likes of Freitas, Castillo, Manfredy, Casamayor...very tough tasks, that's definitely a top fighter in my opinion.

floy never beat freitas

And the fashion in which you beat someone matters. Floyd completely dominated a top 5 P4P guy. Cotto edged Mosley on the cards. Come on.

JLC is better then Cotto IMO the best lightweight of his era and how long was Cotto the man in his division exactly? and who did Cotto ever beat that was ranked #1?

^ were all at least top 5 in their weightclasses when Floyd fought them...you're such a troll.

And take the best fighter that have campaigned at that weight since 2000s and would those fighters make the top five?

Thats what I stated and I stand by it.

All good man

You asked for Top 5, he provided that, at least admit you were wrong. Asking for a Top 5 fighter in a certain division isn't much really.
