    Well it was a close fight but I had Cotto winning. Yes, true at that point he had a better resume but if you look at now. Baldomir sucks and Mayweather used him as a sparring partner now. Quintana beat Williams which is more impressive since he was the smaller guy. P.S. Hatton is not a good win at welterweight only junior welterweight. ;)

    We aren't talking right now, we are talking when Cotto beat Mosley. You said at that moment Cottos resume was better than Floyds at WW and he had become the man. Which it clearly wasn't.

    Please tell me how a Quitana win when Cotto beat him is better than a Baldomir victory?

    I know but not now. I mean right now after everything from the Baldomir turning into a sparring parnter to Quintana beating Williams.

    That's not the point. The point was when Cotto beat Mosley you said his resume was better and he became the man of the division with that win. Which it wasn't and he didn't.

    The whole point of our debate was when Cotto had beat Mosley. You can't switch it up and say its about now.

    That's what your arguement came down to. You didn't have any arguement for any other of Cottos victories topping Floyds besides Mosley and Hatton.

    You're whole debate came down to how good of a Mosley victory was it, was it enough to shine over everything else? Which it clearly wasn't.



    And really the debate changed a bit when I made the thread but in our convos the debate never changed and you were dying for a thread to be made because you needed help.

    Now? Of course Cotto. That's unfair though to compare though. Who knew what any fighter would go on to do? I gaurentee no one thought Baldomir would beat Judah or Quitana would beat Williams.


    When Cotto beat Mosley, his resume was not better and he did not become the man of the division.

    My question is, why is Zab Judah still rated so highly?

    Knowing what we know now Cotto has the best resume. Floyd had a slightly better one then. Fair enough? :think
