Who has the better resume, and achievements at 140, Hatton or Cotto?

Hatton

 

Hatton by miles

Cotto faced no "real" champions at 140 (my definition of real)

 

I would still love to see a Hatton vs Cotto fight. I think it would be a FOTY

 

so are you dissing hatton's next opponent and some of the opponents that hatton and cotto faced such as carlos m.:?

 

in my quote I was refering to the hatton fight not in kt general career... every great fighter has a turning point and this was his reaching point where he finally realized is time to hang up the gloves, you could see it in the fight... my quote above was to answer your question about paulie and kt...

 

not at all... kt quit on himself proving my point that his motivation and heart wasnt the same anymore, eventually retiring...

 

Hatton.

Cotto's resume is now superior, but it's his wins over Mosley, Judah, and Quintana that have allowed him to pass Hatton's resume.

At 140lbs Ricky became the true and linear champion, Cotto was a meaningless title-holder.

 

was mitchell really as big of a threat to KT on their second fight...

 

Hatton.

 

good point... like I said mitchell was not a threat esp. when he fights guys on another level you could see what the outcome would most likely be... different weight classes werent they? we know some fighters feel more comfortable at other weights and perform better...
