    He holds a win over Mosley and Quintana who is the only man to beat PTP. Not to mention his only defeat came at the hands of an exposed cheater. I 'd say Cotto's deserving. :deal

    I met Donaire at the Pac-Hatton weigh in. A very very stand up guy. His girlfriend was one of the most beautiful Philipino girls i've seen and she prolly outweighed him by 15+ lbs.

    Have a look at Vic's resume and what he has been doing to his opponents. In 3 fights within a short period of time he was KTFO and dominating his opponents and taking thier belts. Vic is the only Wbc/wba/ibf champ. Ok Vic got KO'd, so did Cotto!! Cotto's last 3 fights Gomez:rofl KTFO by MArg and Jennings:rofl




    Donaire and Mijares




    #of loses is irrelevant. Its what you have done. The mosley win was 2 yrs ago.





    How can Cotto be on there and No Paul williams or Chad Dawson?

    how bout putting 2/3 names on each number? looks like we can't just put a name without putting the other. IMO its the opinion of the panel i bet they are more knowledgable by far than us.

    Donaire???? Not yet, the guy has done **** all since the Darchinyan fight IMO

    Gamboa has done more than he is recently, and with a win over Caballero would jump Donaire.

    Paul Williams can whip anyone's ass in 147 to 154. And He would be favored over all but 2 fighters at 160. The man can whip damn near anyone in 3 weight classes. That is the very definition of Pound for Pound

    Cotto gets spanked by a man Williams beat. And comes back to beat Miachael ****ing Jenkins or whatever the **** his name is.... And he gets up to #7?!?!?

    You fools know that **** aint right. And you can't jusstify it based on the past year of fights. Only a blind Cotto-queen would believe he deserves to be up there.


    MC 2-1 (Gomez and Jennings, losing to Margo)
    PW 4-0 (CQ@147, Kolle@160, Phillips@154, Winky@160)

    And before anyone talks about how Margo may have had his gloves loaded, Williams beat that same possibly loaded-gloves fighter. No difference.

    Why don't they just get in the ring and fight it out? Oh Wait! I forgot. Bob Arum don't like Goosen.... WTF?

    Cotto should have never been off that list, but I still can't understand why the **** Caballero is still up there.

    How should he be any slots higher. Seriously. Other than the fact that he's everyone's Golden Boy mancrush, what has he done inside the ring over the past year to warrant his placement? Seriously.

    If you go back two years, then you gotta include PW's win over Margo and Mitchell.

    Paul beat Margarito. (Who killed Cotto)
    and
    Paul beat Winky. (Who deuced Shane)

    :huh hmm...

    Also Paul avenged his loss immediately with a 1st round starching...
    Cotto went into hiding after his... and then finally came out to fight Jennings....
