    You can argue the merits of the rankings, but that's pretty impressive.

    He obviously didn't face #1 Cotto at 147 and some others, but his cherry picking isn't as bad as it is perceived when held in your light.

    #1 Cotto barely got by Mosley. Mosley is easily the better welterweight than Cotto IMO

    Smashed Margarito, beat Oscar, hung with Cotto, dominated Collazo

    vs

    Scraped by Shane, got beat down by Margarito, beat Judah, dominated Quintana

    Yup, and Saul Alvarez beat a legit 154 pound fighter last time out. I don't know what the hell you guys are all on about, Lopez was ranked.

    Cotto, the undefeated belt holder wasn't #1 at 147 when Floyd fought Hatton?

    One of the alphabet organizations might not have ranked him that highly, but he was the #1 welterweight.

    I started off agreeing with you, but I'm not going to kiss Floyd's cherry picking ass.
