    - Why has he been ranked in the top ten WW longer then anyother current WW?

    ...... these are the current "WHY's"....

    we all know what the others were....8 million $$, WBO WW, hadnt lost at WW in 10 years..etc, etc..
    What knowledgeable poster said he was a bum? That's not the overwhelming view on this forum - let's end this thread please.

    BTW - Cotto is the headliner - Margo is along for the ride (but he's not a BUM)

      Not to go off topic but I just don't understand why the phrase "bum" gets thrown around so loosely. Margarito may not have the most stunning resume in all of boxing but he's fought fairly sturdy competition for quite a while now with the results mostly in his favor. How anyone could call him a bum is beyond me.

        I don't think he's a bum, he's a tough fighter, but I just don't think he's no where near Cotto's league

                Why would you call Baldomir a bum? I guess I'm a lot more forgiving of fighters than some folks....I generally consider a dude who has won way more fights than he's lost to atleast be reasonably good. I'd say someone more like kid thunder thunder fits the definition of a bum rather than a fighter who toward the end of their career was in contention for a title of significance and even held it if only for a short while.

                  Nothing against Margarito but he is headling because of Cotto.
