Cotto started at 140, Mayweather at 130. Mayweather's beaten better quality opponents over the course of his career, all the while being undefeated. Can't say the same for Cotto, who's apparent best win is over a 39 year old past prime fighter coming off a 14 month lay off and frequent surgeries.
Look at it this way. Floyds win over mosely is nearly exactly similar to Cotto's win over Sergio. The only differences being it was Cottos first fight at that weight and Shane was coming off a career highlight while Sergio was coming off a fight he looked horrible in. But yet ppl rate them very differently. It's kinda odd.
