    Wow. Pretty much double think Pacman's win over Cotto was better. That answers that question.

    Though I consider both wins to be good, I have to rate Pacquiao's win over Cotto higher. There's tons of variables to consider as far as how good of a win each one was: age, catchweights, previous beatings(mainly Cotto here), ring rust...but to me...I felt Cotto had a chance to beat Pacquiao, not necessarily because he was the bigger guy, but because he was a decently skilled fighter and was still young. I didn't think Mosley had much of a chance at all to beat Floyd. Also, the Margarito fight notwithstanding, Mosley has been on the slide for some time.

    just a few things to consider....

    pac beat cotto, who had been stopped by marg, and looked very ordinary vs clottey in a disputed decision

    floyd beat mosley, who had just beaten marg, but looked like shyt in his fight before (mayorga) and after (mora)

    mosley was the #1 ww at the time, so i have to give it to floyd.

    Pac-Cotto by a mile

    not just impressive but over all much exciting by a mile also

    when a bout has a knock-down and blood flowing it means a more exciting and impressive it is. it has the quality of a true boxing match

    I HATE BORING FIGHT. all defense, run and tag, no excitement

    Pac stopping Cotto by a a lot. That's the best Manny Pacquiao we've ever seen or will ever see.

    At least the poll score shows that ESB still has some insight and integrity. A destructive win over a near-prime fighter is better than a wobble then a points win over an exhausted old man.

    Cotto is much more past it than Shane...Shane has been beat, but Cotto was mentally beat after the margo fight...Floyd's win was much more impressive imo.

    I don't think there's much doubt as to which win was better.

    Pac vs Cotto. Mosley was tired after 2 rounds. He looked shot, then looked shot vs Mora.

    since mosley is now confirmed shot when floyd fought him, anyone who thought floyd's victory was better has changed their minds now?
