Since Floyd is retired, I think the winner of Margarito/Williams should be considered the #1 welterweight in the world.
Um, no. They'd need to see Cotto, Mosley, and even Super Zab (who isn't finished IMO) about that. I'm not so sure that either of those two beat Zab, I can see Williams getting a win on Cotto, Margarito would, IMO, get beat by Cotto . . . and then you have Mosley, who, if he met any of them inside a year and a half could beat all the youngsters with the exception of, maybe, PBF.
So, um, yeah . . . I kinda disagree.
according to box rec
1 Shane Mosley 44-4-0
2 Miguel Angel Cotto 30-0-0
3 Carlos Manuel Baldomir 43-10-6
4 Antonio Margarito 34-4-0
5 Paul Williams 32-0-0
Does this mean Cotto vs Mosley!
ROFL, @ according to boxrec. Dude do not get your rankings from that website. I think at 1 point they had John Ruiz at like top 3 on there p4p list......haha:banana:
True, everyone has some questions that need to be answered. That's what makes the Welterweights so interesting right now.
Exactly why I love the WW division right now. It seems like all the top 10 WW's all have very good chances of beating each other. There are NO easy fights in the WW top 10.
There might not even be a clear #1 in 2-3 years. It might just come down to styles and all the top guys giving each other losses depending on the matchup.
woa that was cool
Mayweather was my #1
Me too. It's hard not to go with him in the majority of the match-ups. I think that Mosley could beat him, and gave him the nod, but Floyd still came out on top for me.
Floyd
Mosley
Cotto
PBF was until he retired.
Right now there is no clear #1 but I believe the winner of the Margarito/Williams vs Cotto fight will be universally thought of as the #1 guy unless PBF un-retires.
