Margarito-Mosley isn't quite the right matchup to be for the RING belt

The championship became vacant when reigning champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. retired and relinquished his belt in writing. When the fight was made, Margarito was rated No. 1 and Mosley No. 3, which would seem to be at least a possible match up for THE RING championship. However, it wasn’t that simple. Mosley had lost to No. 2-rated Miguel Cotto. And what if Paul Williams decided to drop back down to 147 pounds? Where would he fit in? So Nigel Collins, the editor of THE RING magazine, sought input from his worldwide Ratings Advisory Panel and 25 members provided input. Roughly 55 percent indicated they didn’t want Margarito-Mosley to be for the world championship. http://www.thering-online.com/blog/164/margaritomosley_isnt_quite_the_right_matchup_to_be_for_the_ring_belt/
