You ever notice Miguel Cotto has never beaten a reigning champion?

I think Cotto and Margarito have teh best records at WW. They have faced nearly everyone that has had mattered.

 

yea i wudnt read into this thread to much. already seen it on here at least 3 other times

 

Anyone that values ABC linearity over quality of resume doesn't deserve to be listened to. Cotto's WW resume is solid.

You'd rather him fight Hlatshwayo than Clottey after Clottey was stripped for agreeing to fight Cotto?

 

What they said :good:good
Specially the part about Cotto beating guys and then those guys becoming champions beating someone else.

 

buh he beat the tutti out of every1 put infront of him apart from margo. also he was the best in his division and in p4p top 10. If ha achieved all that then it dont matter

 

Exactly. Good catch, but really means nothing when you look at his resume. Best active welter resume belongs to Cotto.

 

:good

 

what he said

 

Also I think Quintana was a titlist when Cotto got to him.

 

No he wasn't. He won his first world title after the Cotto fight by beating yup out of shape mohawk Williams. :bart

 

No, but he won a title afterwards when he beat Williams. Malignaggi, Torres and Quintana were nobodies when they fought Cotto, and all of them went on to win belts. Just goes to prove that not only isn't he ducking guys, but that the up and coming fighters he's faced are actual dangerous fighters, not just tomato cans with shiny records.

 

In the immortal words of the great Easton Assassin: "So ****ing What!!"

Cotto proved his mettle over and over.

 

:deal

 

Exactly. I've grown tired of these stupid threads bashing Cotto. Yea Cotto never beat a title holder but so damn what? Look at the fighters he fought. I mean damn how can anybody complain of the fighters he faced? Torres, Paulie, Corley, Muassa, Judah, Quintana, Mosley, Margarito, Clottey. <<<<That might be the best resume in the 2000's

 

Game....set....match.
