I have Cotto as the best WW right now from the fighters he's beaten at WW:Quintana,Urkal,Zab,and Shane compared to Baldo,Sharmba and Zab. I don't need a title(lineal,alphabet,whatever) to tell me Cotto is the best WW on the planet.
Mayweather is better than Cotto. He's the best p4p fighter in the world when he's fighting at welterweight.
Mayweather might be better than Cotto, and he might be P4P higher, but Cotto has the better resume AT WW.

By then he should get a fight with one of the other fighters in the division. No jumping straight to Cotto!!
You didn't adress any of the points I made,the main one being Zab had a NO DECISION and "jumped" straight to Cotto sooo...........

Exactly. Mayweather is better in the P4P sense,but at WW,Cotto has fought by far the better fighters and has looked better too. Even if Floyd beats Hatton,Cotto has still fought the better fighters at Ww,Hatton isn't even a legit WW. You're getting confused Taeth.
Re: Margarito v Cotto needs to happen.
Cotto needs to fight Mayweather next. Margarito can wait.
Cotto-Margarito would be a very entertaining fight though, and I'd love to see it happen at some point. I do think Cotto would win, but it'd be competitive.

AMEN!!
Re: Margarito v Cotto needs to happen.
Cotto should get the winner of Hatton vs Mayweather, and on a card within a month of it MArgarito should face Oscar. Winners face of to determine the undisputed welterwight champ and we all know who your P4P king is....yet this will probably never happen because the match ups we all want to see are often overshadowed by financial gains or losses that romoters see in theor own best interest. Oh what a tournament it would be though...back to the old days with the best facing the best not mandatory defenses or cake walk opponents
