    JMM on all front's.
    Cotto's fight's are overall more exciting tho, I'd say.
    (Still don't change the opinion JMM has a higher skill level P4P/Tech, IMO)

    I like AZ, it says a lot when he can get on a song where Nas is at his finest and NOT be outclased. I think he may be as skilled as Nas, but just doesn't have as good of a voice for rap.

    I thought so too. I know many people who didnt like it, but I just think the subject matter went right over their heads.

    No doubt JMM at the moment. Cotto HAS A LOT OF GROUND TO MAKE UP!

    Miguel has one name on his resuem at the moment which was his best win.....Shane.

    JMM has PAC, MAB, Gainer, Juarez, Casa, Mayweather, Peden, Norwood.....ect I mean there really is NO comparison at the moment. Shane was a great win....Marg anther good name, but ultimately no where near the resume JMM has.

    Derrik Smoke Gainer, Penden, Norwood are better names than Paulie, Clottley, Bazan, Nadou and Bailey. BUt Juarez is on paulies and Clottleys level.

    I forgot about Judah for Miguel which was a very good win. Maybe not a blowout like I thought. Cotto has a very solid resume but I just feel JMM has the far better resume...wins and losses combined.

    For just wins its not nearly the blowout I was suggesting.

    I go with Cotto. Marquez beat a lot of guys who were weakened by the weight and all that, and who were getting old. Cotto is old style. Might not be a great fighter, but he sure had heart and fighting spirit.

    marquez is the best boxer in the planet.
    Loosing to floyd didnt make him loose anything
    he is still greater than floyd
    then again i got
    manny = marquez although i do think marquez edge their fights
    Cotto is really great fighter and underrated pound for pound fighter
    mayweather has done nothing to be on top of those 3 fighters

    :nono Man no way check out Marquez in his prime at Feather and even JL he was technically superior to Cotto, and if they were in the same weight class he would have stopped him late or won a close but convincing decision.
