    This. Pac vs Cotto prime for prime would be 50/50 for me though, those styles together are hard to judge

    But I see a Prime Oscar beats all of these

            Margarita without that chin and the plaster we would not be talking about him

I consider Cotto a very good fighter who is very popular and he has a crowd pleasing style. I don't think he is an all time great but I am sure lots of his fans think he is an all time great.
              this ^^^^^^^

              Cotto is a great fighter to watch, good fighter, but not ATG material. big fan of cotto, and he had a great career, but i dont see him beating any ATGs..

                I shudder to think what would have happened to cotto, had he ever met a prime tito, prime donald curry, prime ray robinson, prime leonard, prime hearns, prime benitez,

                  If i had a gun to my head, i would say that cotto has the best chance of beating at 147

                  Barney Ross
                  Jimmy Mclarin

                  History section guys will hate me for saying that, but thats how i feel

                    Cotto would have never beaten Pacquiao, Floyd and likely not even a prime Margarito although that's a more winnable fight. His determent was not using his right hand enough and leaving himself open down the middle especially for uppercuts. I've always felt if Cotto would have fixed some things he could have been great but for now I'd say he was a very good fighter in his prime, definitely not great.
