    Well that's ******ed, at least now margarito isn't forced to fight a pointless mandatory in january so it leaves the door open for a shane, clottey, and williams vs margarito in january!! Maybe that was the reasoning for the super champ title. Either way no bum in january so that's great news for boxing fans!!

              you shouldn't be able to get a belt without fighting the champ for it, and if the champ is vacant, then the #1 and #2 should fight for it.

                I vow to never support a WBA sanctioned fight. Never.

                  I wish the government would step in all this business robbery and force to only have one belt per division. It only makes sense! Too much money in boxing it screws **** up!!!!

                    what are you talking about bruh??? when have mayweather or dlh wanted to fight margarito. with the money they make in fights, margarito is still nowhere near worth the risk........

                    he's talking about clottey and williams, man. i'll give margarito a pass on ducking clottey, b/c broken hands or not he beat him already. but williams is another story. he LOST to williams, so aside from being able to avenge that defeat, and therefore being able to w/ certainty, call himself the man at ww, he wants no part of williams........he wants mosely or judah. and not even mosely as it stands right now. SMH

                    and not to mention, he makes his biggest purse to date, for a rematch w/ PW. no reason not to take that fight at all......
