so they black ball paul williams out of fighting margarito which would have been for the true ring title, and push joto into the spot.

gotta love the r.a.c.i.s.m of boxing. cotto was supposed to face paul williams and the winner was to face the mosley margartio winner. low and behold we get a letter from arum telling al to keep williams away from his fighters.

no way can ring sanction margarito vs cotto for the ring title, they will lose all respectability in my eyes and become worthless

shut up please. Williams doesnt want to fight at 147. All he wants is margarito nothing more. He left the division instead of cleaning it out. that's his fault.

Cotto being Ring champion with a loss to Margarito does not make sense, any more than the situation where Margarito is Ring Champion beating Cotto again, and not facing the guy whom actually beat him and is more deserving of a re match.

I disapointed in Ring. A guy whom just lost to the man gets a quick ish re match and chance to be Ring champion, whilst the guy whom beat the man gets no rematch or more deserved shot at being Ring champion.

Wha???

Damn I just checked the rankings and I dont understand it: I thought Pac-DLH was for The Ring 147 lbs belt?

Didn't GBP buy the sorry mag?

Middleweight is looking weak

dlh and pac would have to be ranked #1 and #2 at ww for it to be for the ring belt. If ring did rank them that high boxing would die that instant due to the plane robbery and crookedness of GBP.

It'll get worse, than get great. Pavlik and Abraham(especially Abraham) will have to move up soon. Than there will be like a year or two of the division being weak. Than all of the great Jr. MW prospects will come up and make it a great division again. It's a never-ending cycle.

Fighters recognized as champions by The Ring are rated at the top of their division, with the top 10 contenders listed below.

Championship vacancies can be filled by winning a box-off between The Ring's number-one and number-two contenders, or, in certain instances, a box-off between our number-one and number-three contenders.


So now Marg-SSM is for the Ring title. Fine. We get a linear championship re-established at WW, but I still wanna see Marg-Pwill 2 next year after Marg is done wit SSM and the Cotto rematch.

I guess GBP shouldnt have bought it then? I thought he wanted the 147 lbs belt to lure Mayweather into a rematch.

I know about the ranking procedures. I was joking.

Marg-Pwill II should happen, and I think most boxing fans want this fight, but as of now there are two guys infront of pwill(Shane/Cotto). So we just have to wait till the end of 09 and just enjoy the fights that are being done right now.

Williams gave up his title and moved up in weight. Do you expext everyone to just wait around to see if he returns? Williams moved on. You should too.
