I don't care who they fought, who they beat is more important. All you have to say for cotto is shane. Who else, one victory over a top fighter doesn't make you better than a guy with more then one victory over top fighters. Surely your not that stupid.
Listen buddy cotto was much more skilled then all those guys as was Shane you are Losing this battle and war
**** if we can't objectively agree that Miguel Cotto truly is and always was a better fighter than Castillo and/or Corrales...then we're seriously in trouble on this board !! It takes nothing away from FMJ's wins against those guys at the time, but PLLLLLLEEEAAAZZZZZE don't even try and convince people that they are better than Cotto !! Also, Cotto not actually defeating a champion takes nothing away from his great resume !! Whether guys as Mosley, Quintana, Judah, etc.. had a title or not, doesn't change the value of Cotto's wins against them !! It's one thing to protect our favorite fighter but let's not get carried away because of that too...
Massive power, quick, GREAT inside fighter, could take you out with one shot from either hand, all the heart in the world. "Couldn't box" pffft... wtf are you talking about? If you 'can't box' you don't win a title and you sure as **** don't go to war with Casa and Castillo. Cotto has quite a ways to go before he's proven himself to be on Chico's level.
Quintana and Judah are second raters comparted to JLC and Chico. So is Clottey p4p and it's not like Cotto beat a LW Shane, he beat a 40 yr old WW version of Shane. Where the hell are you people coming from? Don't you know ANYTHING?
Floyd hasn't faced a figther that was more skilled than cotto that's it I don't even need to mention Shane that's a whole diffrent level ..... Floyd faced chico a good puncher and jlc a good boxer skipped Shane wouldn't fight Margo or pw or cotto now he is forced to fight Shane or PAC
I wouldn't have to, except for you, at1 and maybe a few other noobs. 99% of the board already knows it. Why don't you make a poll?
how was the mosley win a gift when mosley himself admitted it could have been a draw or that cotto edged him in a good fight???????? So mosley states one thing and an ESB poster says something else......who should we believe in this issue?.......
Wow !!! OK I don't want to start an argument over that...but I seriously think your completely off track here ! Chico and Castillo, talent wise, are not on Cotto's level !!! If you also want to argue on the quality of their opposition compared to Cotto...I also favor Cotto's...easily !!!
