    The moment Cotto steps into the ring on Friday vs Clottey he will have engaged 5 of the top 10 Welters in Boxing. This is why I respect Miguel Cotto, win or lose the career has not been a sham. He has the balls to take chances, thats confidence. The man is rarely in a dull fight, he is just good for boxing. Carlos QuinatannaZab JudahMosely Antinio MargaritoJoshua ClotteyNo reason to hate on Cotto, if your a fan of boxing you gotta love the excitement and quality he brings to the table.

    Well not really - He as the ability and the name to get the fights, he just doesn't want too.

    Which is a real shame.

    3 more than Floyd Mayweather, so far.

    Though I believe a Pacquiao win for Pretty Boy would quite easily trump the best wins on Cotto's resume.

    Shame I don't see the fight happening.

    Regardles to weather he won that fight or not ! He's always moving forward looking for the next best fighter and thats all that matters. I feel that Margarito was the better fighter that night and thats all.
