    1. Castillo II(Floyd giving away rounds on his back foot was a terrible strategy)
    2. Oscar(Inactivity won Oscar four rounds, and had he kept it up, might've deserved the decision)
    3. Reggie Sanders...what the hell was Top Rank thinking putting a guy with 1 fight in with a lefty?

    Yeah the case can be made. I just choose Cotto because he inflicted more punishment. I don't recall Floyd's face ever looking like that in a fight before. Cotto was game until the championship rounds. Judah was game for 5 rounds before Floyd dominated him.
