    Personally, I'd say Quintana or Judah.

    Judah altough the Mosley win is there but he completely destroyed Zab in an incredible atmosphere in a great fight.

    Mosley and Judah are the standouts.

    Below that he has Quintana, Torres, Urkal, Corley and N'dou.

    Very solid resume to build on.

    I would have to say Mosley. He pummeled him in close quarters and when shane showed his grit and power, Cotto managed to outbox him and pull off the win.

    Quintana..
    mosley is his bet W, but it was very close...
    Quintana was suppose to be a close fight, Cotto just blew him away..
    Zab was a good win, but i didn't expect less.
    Torres and Mallignaggi were pretty good to, they cam back to become champions

    Beating Mosley was probably the most "significant" win for him.
    But the Judah fight did alot more for his career because of the way it all unfolded that night. That was a fun one to watch!

    That was too obvious to me though. Judah hadn't had a "real" fight in over a year. Not to mention everything he was going through outside of boxing.

    Impressive wise >>> Carlos Quintana.

    Dominant wise >>> Alfonso Gomez.

    Opponent wise >>> Shane Mosley.

    Overall, it's Mosley, Torres and Judah, in that order. ;)

    Hmm Id say Judah, though Cotto's CV is stacked with talent.

    The Quintana, Malignaggi and Torres fights have all looked good after he dominated them, so at the time they were good wins, now they are very good wins.:yep

    I would say Mosely, they both had momentum before the fight with Mosely outpointing convincingly Collazo and Cotto punishing Judah.
