    Shane is 36 and while clearly still a very good fighter as evidenced by the display he put on, is not in his prime. It was a great win for Cotto but would have been bigger if it had taken place two or three years before. So at 36 I don't think this win tops any of Mayweathers when Mayweather took out some top flight guys in their prime.

    Are you ****ing kidding me?


    Castillo wasen't a better victory, or even Corrales?


    Cotto STRUGGLED with a 36 Year Old Shane. THIRTY SIX. And thats better then anything.

    Thats just stupid.

    Oh cmon, place 36 yeard old shane in front Judah, Oscar (he did it twice I think he could do it even now), Hatton (barely beat Collazo who Shane outboxed silly) he would beat them for sure.

    Floyds resume > Cottos resume

    Best Fighter Floyd faced (Oscar) < Best fighter Cotto faced (Shane)

    Cotto didn't struggle, he won a clear victory as far as I'm concerned.

    Floyd lost the first Castillo fight, and I'd pick 36 yr old Mosley to beat the Castillo that fought Mayweather the 2nd time. Corrales wasn't anything special, he was entertainment.

    At their primes sure. But Shane was 36 and DLH was 32/33.


    DLH at the time of his fight with Floyd > Over Cottos fight with Shane

    Floyds victory over Oscar is more impressive because it really wasnt close despite what the score cards said. Cotto barely beat Shane. I mean it came down to virtually the last round. Floyd had the Oscar fight in the bag by round 10.

    Shane Mosley beat DLH twice.

    Mosley would have dominated Hatton as well.

    :yep
