Granted it was on ppv but still surely the gripe was with the level of opposition?

Hows Jennings any better than Lazcano?
Find a quote from me where I criticized Hatton for taking the Lazcano fight. Everybody gets a layup once in a while it's only a problem when you take 4 crap fights for every one legit one. I never blamed Hatton for fighting Lazcano.

Cotto been in more fights with good to excellent quality opponents than anybody fighting actively right now other than Pac or Oscar. Going back 5 years, he's only been in soft a couple of times (Gomez, Branko, Abdulev). Pretty much all the rest were solid choices for those points in his career.
