    Exactly. People are aren't recognising how good Clottey is and are igoring Cotto's cut eye as a major factor. The win against Clottely should be considered amongst some of his best achievments. But I think the backlash against Cotto lately has stemmed from the fact that he was regarded as invincible post the Mosley win and people had forgotten that he had been badly hurt in many of his fights at 140. The guy is beatable but he's a great fighter with an enormous heart. There is nothing to not like about Cotto as a fighter. I'd pick Clottey to beat Berto and Mosley. (Head to head, Cotto beats Trinidad).

    I'd still pick Clottey to beat Mosley. There's nothing mosley can do IMO except change his style. And I could see mayweather getting a decision against Clottey but it wouldn't be easy.
