    Both of these guys were very good, but not great fighters in their primes.

    Which is the better win???? Both were masterclass performances by the way, but who was the tougher opponent to beat?

    Win over Cotto was extraordinary

    Corrales win was of course very good but Cotto win was better to me

    He weight drained Cotto to 145.

    May over Corrales is an ATG level win, one of the greatest wins of all time.

    So you think Corrales is on the level of hearns or barrera or morales? He's on ATG?

    Neither Cotto or Corrales are ATG.

    Corrales wasn't coming off a loss as damaging as margaritos starchment of cotto. Cheating or not its hard to face a guy like pax after that.

    To compare Manny's comeback fight was against rios.


    Rios

    Exactly. He was a good fighter but not great. He was also destroyed by clottey.

    Corrales was no ATG. Let's cut the cord on that one.

    Getting knocked out at 27 doesn't make past prime. Cotto was young and bounced back.

    He destroyed the cheater. He was destroying everybody until he was out boxed by mayweather.

    Glass body Pacquiao's resume doesn't compare to May's resume.

    It's been a month! Why do you idiots keep making these posts? We know who is better. That was proved May 2nd.

    You can watch it in slow motion, reverse, bring up anything you want, make a time machine ... it doesn't change the fact that Floyd schooled Excusequiao! :deal

    Corrales was a better win IMO.

    Cotto was brutalized in the Margarito fight. I don't think fighters ever fully recooperate from fights like that.

    Floyd beat an undefeated P4P champion.
