    Nothings worse then putting a lot of effort to create a thread that nobody gives a **** about. But since you requested it I will post the records why not.

    Cotto made his WW debut like three weeks before 06 ended

    Judah's buzz faded after he lost to Baldomir and Mayweather, then lost to Cotto to completely end it.

    Thats fine since its not just based on WW but career going forward from there. Cotto had instant buzz at WW as soon as he moved up in weight since he controlled Jr WW.

    I think to a certain extent that Cotto, Williams, and Margarito all lived up to the hype, with only Cintron and Clottey falling short.

    Why isnt Margarito listed as one of Pauls wins? That one should be on the list, its his second best win.

    Cotto - Hes still around now and holding a belt and is about to revenge one of his losses.

    Possibly Williams 2nd, but he seriously got KTFO by Martinez,

    Margarito shot and taken numerous beatings and only beat Cotto (possibly by cheating)
    Clottey is utterly useless and irrelevant to the division today
    Cintron, just a gatekeeper
