Seriously who has cotto fought. the record dont mean nothing. name a top fighter he beat besides mosley and don't say zab judah because he is finished.
...seriously though, he's fought a lot of good guys. You have to fight good guys before you get to the top names. There aren't that many top names in the division, you know? So to answer your question, he just got to the level where you fight the big names. This is how the boxing business is. Develop a rep. and we'll give you the shot along with the cash. The controversial victory over Zab and the decision over Sugar Shane Mosley are big "W's" for him on his way up. What's bigger is that Sugar Shane himself admits to losing the fight. You have to crawl before you begin to run and we know that. So like I've stated before, I'd rather see him demolish De La Hoya so that the world can see that the boy is no fluke and he's for real.
...One fact is that other fighters are dodging him. From hearing him and watching him, he's not a runner and will fight anyone. He's definetly interested in fighting De La Hoya, "Winky", Mayweather, Margarito and even his boy "Tito" Trinidad if he has to. The boy is for real. We shall see what happens...
...on the other end: The "Tito" Trinidad vs. Roy Jones Jr. fight is going to be quite interesting.
