Well of course he beats Moselys place. Mosely should not be in top 30 never mind 4. Was Cotto impressive? Nope.Quote:

And Miguel Cotto has a victory over Shane Mosley, aswell as a better resume than Shane Mosley in the last few years. So he does deserve to replace Shane Mosley.
Miguel Cotto had a cut eye very earlier on and he could of took advantage of that, by quitting the fight and going to the scorecards. Which he would of won.
But instead he fought on with a very bad cut and gutted out a win, over a very tough opponent i'd say that is an impressive victory.
Yes I pick Clottey to win even if he was a heavy underdog... Honestly, I'm more satisfied with Clottey's performance... He made it a very tough fight for Cotto and many people had Clottey the winner in their scorecards... IMO Clottey "soften" Cotto more...
I have no problems with Cotto winning officially... It's a close fight that could go either way but I felt Clottey won... There's no shame with my pick since Clottey gave a hell of a fight... Not like some boxers who goes to the fight acting like a total dumbsh!t and ended up laid out flat on the canvass... That's one case where you felt ashamed and dumb for picking such boxers...

You're more than welcome to check it, its on the first page of the P4P thread. I currently have him at 14, no higher because I felt he lost last night & there are fighters whose skill levels I rate higher than him & others whose performances have impressed me more over the past yearQuote:

I still have Cotto in #5. But one more brilliant performance fight by PWill before Nov 14 might change that.
couldn't be anymore transparentQuote:

I'm not sure what you are trying to say there, but both Mosley and Cotto have had great competition of late, I don't see the point in trying to compare who has foughten whom because they both have foughten top notch guys lately, and both have for the majority looked good against that tough opposition. I just thought Cotto would use his superior power to make a large impression against CLottey, but his defense wasn't as good as I thought it would be, and I honestly think if Clottey had thrown more he would have won, but it just doesn't make sense to me because when COtto backed up him up, Miguel was so effective, like when he fought Mosely, but once again he doesn't fold mentally, but he gives up on pressure when he can't put a guy away, and I don't understand it. Cotto is so effective when he stands his ground, and he doesn't quite have the defensive skills or mobility to move properly against elite pressure fighters.Quote:

I was one of those people that expected Cotto to win but in a better scenario. First of all, this opponent hurt him with a head butt and he fought on. I expected Cotto to box circles around him but he bled profusely and Clottey, I take nothing away from him made it an ugly fight and he was physical. Cotto landed the more telling punches and stole a round with a left hook. In the mythical P4P which doesn't mean a thing, you have a fighter that came back from a terrible defeat, possibly because of those illegally wrapped hands. He swallowed the blood and hung in there because when adversity strikes, the best or the worst comes out of you and guess what, I am a Mosley fan and Mosley started at a lower weight to get championships in higher divisions facing bigger men than him had the misfortune of meeting a fighter with a will to win just like him. I take away credit from neither of these warriors.
I think he should be just ahead of Shane. Coot is still unbetaen imo ;)
