Maybe its on longevity.Overall view.I mean technically and maybe anally ,Mosley has beaten just as many Ring top 10 ranked Welters over a span of years as Cotto has recently.....but of course lost to Forrest twice there as well.Maybe its the what have you done for me lately point of view.

For me I think his last two wins were more impressive than Cottos and since Cottos close win over Mosley....Mosley has Ko'd the man in Margarito who had previously Ko'd the man...Cotto.Whatever the opinion of did he or didn't he regarding Tony,The ring has obviously not let that into its decision as they still have him ranked as well.What I know for fact is that Mosley beat Tonys azz as if he owed him money .I do think Cotto is an improved boxer and was willing to bet all that they would have rematched by now.Love to see it
