Meldrick Taylor was still good after Chavez, but not quite what he once was, and considered done by late 1992.
ThreadStealer,
I forgot about him, you're right. After Chavez he won a few more fights by decision and then lost to Terri Norris, Crisanto España, later on against Chavez and that was it. Downhill.
what i think about the situation is when your up and coming you get to pick and choose your fights but when you get to a certain level you only fight the best and cotto is now to the point where he is only gonna fight the best so now is where we see how good cotto really is he never beat anyone great only good fighters margo isn't a great fighter but i must say he is great at what he does cottos claime to fame was a old mosley and zab who has alot of talent but not much focus
Truth32,
Interesting point because some people would see him beating Alfonso Gomez as one of his greatest accomplishments. I'll say Judah and Mosley have been the biggest names in his resume so far, and still, can we say Judah and Mosley were at their primes? Cotto fights a guy in his prime (Margarito) and look what happened. Even with guys who were not in their primes or that were journeymen would still cut, rock, and expose Cotto.
