    Who's greater, Miguel Cotto or Vitali Klitschko?

    I've seen people call Vitali an ATG, then call Cotto a bum. I know everyone thinks I have a biased opinion, but I think Cotto is a greater fighter and has a better resume. What say all of you?

        Simurgh, why did you vote for Vitali? You're the only one so far, I'd like to hear a counter argument.

          Although Cotto has a better wins on his resume he suffered 4 losses.
          I can't say Lennox is lesser HW than Mayweather is LMW, not to mention Margarito or Trout.

          Also Vitali has dominated the division regardless how weak it might be compared to welter or LMW.

          It's close, but I picked Vitali as I know not many will.

          Both are great IMO. Not sure if they are ATG but they are great...

            well Cotto would be my favorite out of both guys

            but the big Klit even at an old age seems to be boxing well, he made Lennox retire n has dominated the heavys division

                I have to say I agree with this, it's close though IMO. I pick Vitali to even it out abit I'm a little surprised Cotto is winning so clearly here considering all the hate he gets? :O

                  I've been a Cotto fan since he turned pro, Him and Ali (strange, i know), have been a couple of my all time favorites. I think it's Cotto's vulnerabilities that intrigue me. He's struggled a lot more to get where he's been and at, than Vitalli.

                    Cotto does have four losses, one very questionable and two to the best fighters of this era. Vitali doesn't control the quality of his division, but neither does Cotto.

                    Beating Mosley > greater than any win Vitali has and I really don't think it's that close.
