    What is Cotto's best win the close fight over Mosley? OK Floyd fought him later but beat him far more soundly but I will call that a push. What is his next best win? Judah?, Corley?, Malinaggi?, Torres?, Quintana?, Margarito?


    I would say Floyd's run at 130 is superior to Cotto's dossier

      It was when Roy got stopped and B-Hop losing to Taylor twice.

        Start putting jobs you got fired from on your resume and see how that turns out.

          smdh! none of them were elite or even close to it. most of them weren't even ranked. and yes Floyd ascended to #1 based on other people losing and beating each other. story of his career. he just hangs around long enough that people think he's dominant even though he won't even fight certain guys to preserve his fake dominance.

              Cotto deserves tons of respect for his courage and heart. He truly is a throwback fighter. With that being said, his resume isn't better than Floyd's at all. Cotto was stopped by Pacman and Margarito and lost to Floyd himself. Yes, he deserves credit for taking on those fighters but he did come up short.

              What are Cotto's 5 best wins? Mosley, Margarito, Clottey, Paulie and Zab.

                Attrition is a real thing and Floyd was on the list for a while when that happened so that is one way of getting to the top~


                Both Roy and B-Hop looked past their best when they fought those guys, so it is not like they were wrong in putting Floyd in that position they were proven to be correct~

                  If you don't comprehend what I'm saying then just ask, making assumptions makes you look like the fool.

                  Its common sense, you get more respect for giving it your all despite losing to a exceptionally skilled fighter than beating the **** out of a 100lb uncoordinated handicap guy. It's also known as putting it all on the line.

                  From what you just stated, where you're from they don't measure or value heart/balls; just a win however it comes because it boosts their pathetic self-esteem.

                    Total floyd-hater thread.....

                    floyd has a much better resume than cotto,,,

                    1. undefeated, grant it though that margs, trout, manny would be tough for floyd

                    2. floyd lineal champ at 130, 135, 147, 154,, Cotto has never been lineal champ

                    Cotto has a great resume, but floyd's is better
