    Given that Mosley and Cotto were about the same level of fighter, and Cotto held a narrow victory over Mosley, and that Mosley was getting long in the tooth by last night, and given the manner in which each man won, and the margin of victory, which victory was the more impressive ?

    PAc beat and literally destroyed Cotto
    Mosley tagged Floyd, then faded by himself

    Floyd over Mosley

    When you took the beating Cotto did against Margo your never the same afterwards. he did well in the opening 3 rounds but as soon as he went down it was all downhill from there.

    Mosley was coming off over a year Layoff though and at his age its hard to say but he troubled Mayweather in the opening rounds so he obviously aint shot.

    Mosley win only just though

    No catchweight. Floyd beat the number 1 WW in my book.

    both impressive but i say pac over cotto. pacquiao stopped cotto and did not seem to have trouble at all with just the round 1 being the close one.

    Pac v Cotto - I think most people that Floyd would win by wide UD against Mosley.

    Dead even for me. Pac stopped Cotto whereas Floyd couldnt stop Shane. Floyd was in trouble for atleast 1 round, Pac was never in any major trouble. Floyd dominated his fight more overall I thought. Floyd showed in this fight that we underestimated his power and strength. Pac showed in the Cotto fight that we underestimated his chin and toughness.

    The pre-fight sentiments were far more polarizing for the Pac-Cotto fight thus making it a more impressive win for Pac, imo.

    how do people have floyd v mosley. mosley didn't do **** and was tired after the 2nd round. all he was throwing for the rest of the fight was that digy jab. cotto at least made an effort. that mosley was clearly shot or drained from the testing. How does someone tire after 2 rounds without getting hit.

    before last night i would probably say Mosley but after seeing Mosley look old and shot against Floyd i have to say Cotto was the better win.
