It is becuase of cotto too , are you crazy ?!?! he did 2 things Floyd wouldn't do sign to fight cotto and destory cotto Floyd don't wanna deal with bob arum and i understand that.... But now he had no choice Either PAC or Shane
Agreed. And Corrales and castillo would both get beat by Cotto. You don't beat Mosley if your an average fighter.
wow... no matter how many times I see it, it still never fails to amaze me. Welterweights are bigger than lightweights ummmkay? You DO NOT judge it by who would beat who. You judge it by who would beat who if they were the SAME WEIGHT.
A lot of people were using the logic that Cotto was the best fighter Pac would have ever fought, for the simple fact that Cotto would beat all MAB, Morales, JMM simply because he was bigger. Doesnt work like that though, to date Morales 1 was still the best fighter Pac ever fought.
And that's exactly what I was doing. Shane Mosley was the same weight as Cotto and Cotto beat him. Corrales and Castillo COULD NOT BEAT SHANE MOSLEY EVEN IF THEY WERE THE SAME WEIGHT. So that ends the whole debate right there. And I know you think Oscar is better than Cotto, a prime one that is but that's up for debate because Oscar loss to Mosley twice and when Mosley was past his best a little he loss to him again. I think Cotto has shown he could adapt more than Oscar has in his big fights. And I think Manny Pacquaio would of white washed the prime oscar that loss to Mosley the first time, considering the fact that the Pac that Cotto fought is more versatile and even faster than the Mosley Oscar fought.(and Oscar couldn't deal with that Mosley) I think the problem is people still trully don't understand how good Pacquaio is(and how much better he's gotten) until he proves it again.
No **** at1 is the same Guy who said jlc couldn't punch. JLC p4p hit harder than cotto. Jlc and Chico are both hof fighters cotto as of now doesn't make the cut.
Yup now look at him :-( Half of these fool are agreeing with him only because they don't like floyd and have no idea what they are talking about.
oh no doubt esp in hindsight. But as far a plain out challenging and the risk reward, Pac/Cotto is more significant. Also why Pac is getting so much acclaim post fight.
160lb DLH, Corrales and Castillo were all better pound for pound then Cotto. I dont even rate Cotto as manny's best win. MArquez was a far better boxer pound 4 pound ten medicore Cotto. And if you say Marquez was a better win P4P then Floyd has, I might agree with you.
