Cotto fought Gomez ,i havent read any critics saying Gomez shouldnt of been in the ring with Cotto. Cotto was toying with Gomez switching his stance and smiling he could of got Gomez out of there anytime he wanted.Gomez shouldnt of been in the ring with Cotto.

PBF needs to forget about the Hatton rematch,if he can stop thinking about money for a moment, and fight Cotto which that is the fight that would get him more credibility.
you're comparing two different things though.. Cotto is not 35 and trying to cement his legacy by defeating the best available.. Granted, Cotto is a champ, and should be fighting higher caliber fighters, but after just fighting mosley, etc.. you can't say that he's turning anyone down.. Calzaghe boasts excellency when he doesn't have the resume to back it up.. Cotto keeps his mouth shut and fights whoever is in front of him.. big difference.
