Quintana as a welcome mat to the 147 division is just as tough as Luis Collazo!
It's not that he's the best at welterweight but Cotto demolished him with ease and that is impressive when considering how tough Hatton had it vs Collazo.
When you think about records and resumes think about this Ricky is 28 and Miguel is 26 if Ricky retires soon then I think it's easy for Cotto to be considered better all-time.
Ricky hasn't made any progress in getting "the big fight" that defines his career...the Tszyu fight is his best right now but he can do better
Miguel has successfully moved up in weight where he is free to chase after ANYONE he wants to.
This really is the best for both boxers, Hatton is free to fight: Harris, Witter, Corrales, Castillo, Hopkins, Holt, Daws, Urango etc
and Cotto is free to fight: Mayweather Jr. (unlikely), Margarito, Clottey, Judah, Mosley (unlikely), De la Hoya (unlikely), Baldomir, Williams, Gatti, etc
I think it would have been a hell of a fight though
