Cotto & Vargas were roughly on the same caliber in their primes. Cotto at 140/147, Vargas at 154.
Vargas looked shot from the Tito fight, as well as tough fights with Quartey & Wright, and back issues. He almost got stopped by Rivera and looked so-so against Flores. He did pretty well against fishnet, with the help of stanozol, in losing. Some decent performances after DLH, like Javier Castilljo, but he was far declined.
Cotto had even more tough fights by May 2012 than Nando in Dec 2000. Plasterito, Pacquiao, Torres, Mosley, Clottey. He looked better against Plasterito in the rematch than Vargas had in 2001, but Plasterito was also a spent force with serious eye problems.
DLH-Vargas was a great fight, Mayweather-Cotto was a good one. Fishnet stopped vargas, floyd won 8, 9 rounds.
Whose win was better?
btw, that protective cup was way too high
