Was Cotto impressive enough to replace Mosley's spot at #4, or B-hops' spot at #3? Will he remain at #5? Or did he hurt his p4p ranking? Please discuss.

Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
No, Although he beat a guy bigger than him in the ring, he micro-inched a win so his movement is nowhere.
Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
Stays the same... Not an impressive performance from Cotto tho he officially won this very close fight...

Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
I think Cotto just cements the current number he's already in.
It was a close fight. Clottey was highly rated in his weightclass, but not in the P4P lists. Cotto also just edged the fight. It wasn't a wide decision win. I think Cotto did enough to not let anyone pass him P4P.

for me he either moves up one or stays the same. Cotto has beaten shane, clottey, quintana, judah, a lost to margarito (which now has a cloud over it) hes pretty much fought the best welters out there except for Berto which is more than i can say for floyd who i am a bigger fan of.

Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
I think he should be the same. Cotto would've had a better outing if not for the bad cut he had to deal with for 9 rounds. But the p4p rankings are mythical and hard to make great sense out of. Cotto has done more at welterweight than Mosley but that one win for Mosley got him past Cotto. Even though Margarito was plaster-less in the Mosley fight.
Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
That sounds like a little bit of sore grapes from you, because he beat the guy you predicted would win. I mean what do you expect ? i think we all knew Miguel Cotto wasn't going to be in for an easy ride.Originally Posted by XaduBoxer
He won a very close decision as most people expected it would be close. I mean Shane Mosley's victory over the cheater Antonio Margarito, isn't that special now we know what Antonio Margarito is.
And Miguel Cotto has a victory over Shane Mosley, aswell as a better resume than Shane Mosley in the last few years. So he does deserve to replace Shane Mosley.
Miguel Cotto had a cut eye very earlier on and he could of took advantage of that, by quitting the fight and going to the scorecards. Which he would of won.
But instead he fought on with a very bad cut and gutted out a win, over a very tough opponent i'd say that is an impressive victory.

He goes up slightly on mine, because he's erased some of the doubts I had post-Margarito, but it was not convincing enough to push him into the Top 10 for me. I felt Clottey won, but Cotto showed tremendous resilience in there.

Re: Where do you see Cotto now in P4P list?
I am kind of dissapointed with his performance, I think that cut definitely played a factor, but I really thought he would do a better job against CLottey.
Who does Cotto have on his resume thats better than Mosley has ICB?
Mosley had Vargas, Mayorga, Collazo, Margarito, Cotto.
Cotto had Urkal, Quintana, Judah, Mosley, Margarito, Clottey ... it really isn't that much more impressive.

You don't have Cotto in your top 10?
I'd be interested to see your top 10

Not a bit of sourgraping... It's my honest opinion and most people here stated the same opinion...That sounds like a little bit of sore grapes from you, because he beat the guy you predicted would win.

Yes I pick Clottey to win even if he was a heavy underdog... Honestly, I'm more satisfied with Clottey's performance... He made it a very tough fight for Cotto and many people had Clottey the winner in their scorecards... IMO Clottey "soften" Cotto more...
I have no problems with Cotto winning officially... It's a close fight that could go either way but I felt Clottey won... There's no shame with my pick since Clottey gave a hell of a fight... Not like some boxers who goes to the fight acting like a total dumbsh!t and ended up laid out flat on the canvass... That's one case where you felt ashamed and dumb for picking such boxers...

Well of course he beats Moselys place. Mosely should not be in top 30 never mind 4. Was Cotto impressive? Nope.
