    Yea and first fight I though Martinez beat him and Lara. Also I thought Cintron was winning the fight vs Williams.

        Froch has never left 168. Cotto has had titles at four divisions. That has to mean something. Froch has had a physical advantage over every single one of the fighters he has faced.

          I just don't see how the likes of Groves and that version of Taylor are better than Clottey. Quintana went on to out class Paul Williams. Can't say the same for Groves. Kessler and Mosley you can maybe argue are equal. Bute win over Destroying Martinez in his fourth division? I don't see it.

            How has he had a physical advantage when he's been fighting at his natural weight his whole career? If anything Cotto was a huge Jr. Welter and was usually the bigger guy at WW.

                Miguel Cotto legendary resume:
                - Pacquaio
                - Mayweather
                - Mosley
                - Margarito
                - Martinez
                - Trout
                - Malignaggi
                - Carlos Quintana
                - Ricardo Mayorga
                - Judah
                - Clottey
                - Torres

                Carl Froch legendary resume:
                - Mikkel Kessler twice
                - Andre Ward
                - Groves twice
                - Jermain Taylor
                - Lucien Bute
                - Jean Pascal
                - Glen Johnson
                - Arthur Abraham
                - Andre Dirrell
                There is no battle, it's Cotto and it's not close. And that has zero to do with the fact that Froch is possibly ranked higher, Froch has had more impressive wins as of late but this comparison is foolish, resume wise. I say this because without reading a single post in this thread, I am willing to bet your little agenda here is to pit the fans of these two fighters against each other.

                  Yeah because Carl Froch should have fought at Light heavyweight, Cruiserweight and Heavyweight before his resume matches up to Miguel Cottos...
                  Who fought who to win those titles at those four different divisions?
