    It's close, but Cotto's win over Mosley is better then anything Floyd did at 147. And he had the balls to fight a prime Margarito / Pacquiao.

    Yeah, winning a close decision over a guy is totally better than winning like 11 rounds to 1. :nut

    :patsch Mosley was completely shot when Floyd fought him. Cotto fought him in 2007 when he was still fast and could bang . I dont care if Mosley beat Margarito a year and half prior, he was gone by the time Floyd got to him. .

    Yeah, he was shot to **** coming off a dominating performance against the guy who beat the living **** out of Cotto, and everybody knew it. I mean, he clearly had nothing left. :nut

    doesnt matter. last time anyone saw Mosley fight he was labled a BEAST and FLOYD FOUGHT HIM AFTERWARDS. Pac fought him coming off a loss and draw. full credit win for floyd.

    Cotto beating the much fresher Mosley was more impressive and caps off a better list of names on average. It's close, but I think Cotto edges it.

    Did I mention the fact that Pacquiao wanted absolutely no part of the exact version of Sugar Shane that we're talking about? :yep

    Shane called his ass out after the Hatton fight and was told he was "too big" by Pacquiao and co. I couldn't find a link to their response, but I'm sure you can if you bother to look.

    I can't find it but it is legit. Roach says Shane came to the gym twice to negotiate, Interviewer asks why they'd fight Oscar but not Shane and Roach replies 'Because at this point, he's better than Oscar' Roach then says they offered the fight to Shane at 143(or 142) and when Mosley said he couldn't make the weight they closed negotiations.
