WBO belt is definitely the britain and puerto rico belt, even recently martinez fought cook for the wbo belt.

None of that alphabet **** means anything. Cotto and Clottey are fightin for the #2 spot and the rights to call out SSM, who's #1.

As you may see, this is all bull**** and the ranking system doesn't even take in consideration if a boxer already fought for a belt or if he was a belt holder in the past. This ******ity of having 4 governating bodies and no unification MUST STOP. NO WONDER FIGHTERS LOOK FOR MONEY INSTEAD OF LINEAR UNDISPIUTED CHAMPIONSHIP STATUS. But the worst one is the IBF. Why bother becoming their champion if you will vacate the belt just to get a better, more significant fight for more money.

Imagine the following fights...

Cotto vs. Antonin Decaire
Clottey vs. Delvin Rodriguez
Berto vs. Jesus Soto Karass
Mosley vs. Nelson Linares

What about Collazo?, Cintron?, Quintana?, Hlatshwayo?, Bonsu?, Senchenko?, Margarito?, Lujan? and even judah and Baldomir for the sake of the discussion???? These boxers should be better ranked.

**** them all!!!

AMEN!!! But I got a feeling that SSM would have no one to fight by year's end. He should fight Berto or PW now and not later, period. His own decisions and desire to get more money are not going to get him a fight agaisnt Hatton-Pac winner. I see Pac winning and fighting Cotto, PBF or JMM... but not SSM...

Don't underestimate Arum if Cotto beats Clottey. He got both boxers and loves PPVs. He only needs to put JJC Jr. and another rising star in the undercard and he got HIMSELF a lot of money. If PBF fights PacMan he uncovers his own bull**** in "not fighting Cotto because of Bob Arum. Pac can fight Cotto first, JMM is a done deal for late 2010.
