    If Floyd didn't have Corrales, Hernandez and Castillo to back that up it could be Cotto, but with those 3 there and factoring in weight divisions and all, Floyd easy.

    Floyd has the better resume. Put Cotto in with Floyd and see another W next to his name.

    I am a Cotto Fan and I hate Floyd. But Floyd has a great record. that is not up for discussion. The problem is Floyd has not done anything significant in about 4 years and I don't think he deserves the amount of money he gets by cherry picking. Plus, somebody hs to make that idiot understand DLH and Hatton made him look good on PPV sales. That's why this next fight is not selling that well. If Floyd wasn't American we wouldn't even be talking about Floyd right now. HBO has made Floyd image. He is a product of their good marketing and promotion machine.

    Floyd's PPV numbers are highly underestimated. He did a lot of sales with no help from Baldomir and his bout with Judah was a big seller as well.

    People need to realize that Floyd draws buys.
