      Berto-Rodriguez should NOT be for a world title. They are just handing Berto a belt basically.

        My bad, it was the "8 million dollar paycheck against Margarito" that floyd avoided. You're right.

          That's what a ton of vacant title bouts are.

          Winky Wright won his IBF 154 pound title against some guy named Robert Frazier. He was on Henry Bruseles's level basically.

          It is usually a badass, and a Henry Bruseles type of guy that "fight" for the belt. It is usually pretty pre-determined though.

            He vacatedit before the Cotto bout. Otherwise Cotto would have been the mandatory, THAT would have been interesting.

              Couldn't happen, which is why Mosley had to vacate it.

              The WBA champion cannot be ranked in the WBC rankings, at all... and an interim champion is the ranking in between real champion and #1.

              It's a damn shame that the ranking system is set up the way it is. Fighters get stripped for trying to unify.

                Yeah....As if Floyd was every welterweight champion.

                We all know that Cotto is the number one welter.

                  Thats how david diaz got his belt. The ****** wbc stripped casamayor because he wanted to fight a better and make more money in acelino frietas. How in the hell was david diaz ranked number 1? Mayweather won the belt from the real champ, and should remain champ until someone beats him at a 147..

                    Nah, **** that... if he isn't going to defend against a mandatory, then it has to be vacated. That is the rules of all the other ABC belts. Anyway, he still has his Ring belt which does keep him at the top of the class in the division to some, and it does keep enough interest on him that there will be talk of Mayweather-Cotto until it happens.

                      I have read some delusional things on this board.... but this one takes the cake as of recently... even more so than that d-bag who said Calzaghe was always faster than RJJ.
