Cotto is pretty low here because he has never beaten a current champion. Both his titles were vacated at the time he won them.
Yup, both valid points. Having Oscar on your record does boost those stats, and according to my counting, it was six seperate title reigns, not including unifications. I think that younger fighters, with the remarkable exception of Mayweather are not going to do as well as B-Hop and Barrera, because they've been around at the top for so long. Be interesting to see what the shakes are in 18months to 2 years time.
