Did Cotto surpass Mayweather with Martinez win

[b00g13man]

Is a win over Martinez better then a win over Cotto?

Pretty much this.

[jayjames616]

Purely in terms of opponents faced you'd have to say Cotto. But Mayweather is clearly a more accomplished boxer, with a better skillset.

Does Floyd's fights prior to 147 not count on his resume? Just asking

[therealpugilist]

I find it funny that the polls posts dont reflect the poll results


There is no.way you can argue cotto accomplishing more than Mayweather

The ones who picked cotto are his fanatics and folks who dksab

[Beercules]

Absolutely. That was a great win for Cotto

[Greed.]

Nope. I don't even think his resume is better

[therealpugilist]

Wins matter these are their.wins.over p4p types and top 5 contenders at the time they fought

Mayweather wins....castillo, corrales, mosley, judah, canelo, hatton, jmm, genarp.hernandez

Cotto...mosley,.I think judah was top 5 @ww, Martinez

Mayweather trumps him, not close

[Pugilist95]

Nope, he needs to do a little more if he is to surpass him imo.

[PopPop]

Cotto beat a guy who was out for 14 months and they're making it a big deal.

I like King Cotto, but NOPE!
MAYWEATHER IS THE BETTER BOXER His #'s are just better and he beat Cotto.

If Mayweather beat Martinez while Martinez looked like that there would be a 300+ page meme thread about Floyd cherrypicking disabled opponents

but when Cotto does it = ATG win
