    The irony is that shane inherited the lineal title direct from cotto and mosley is no undisputed welterweight champ until he cleans the division by beating cotto, collazo, williams and *cough* mayweather *cough*.

      But linear champ is defined as the man who beat the man who beat the man who beat the man.

      Ali was regarded as THE heavyweight champion after beating Foreman despite having a loss to Frazier. And the rematch didnt come until later.

      Cotto beat Mosley but lost to Margarito. Mosley destroys Margarito. I believe your perspective stems from the plaster issue with Cotto vs Margarito but as far as i'm concerned....right now Mosley is THE welterweight champ.

      You are going to be hard pressed to find people unanimously crowning mosley the best welter in the world unless its to make a pac matchup potentially more legitimate. hes not the best welter in the world undisputedly, hes only one of the best. mosley is not the undisputed welterweight champ and after beating margarito, was never crowned so, even by opinion, only until this thread was made did this notion even start. you can think what you want.

      Also, citing the ali comparison sort of doesnt work, since thats the equivelant of mosley fighting margarito, then berto, losing to paul williams then beating cotto. not beating collazo, losing to cotto, knocking out mayorga and knocking out margarito. only margaritos name is apart of the elite within the division.

        Mosley and it has to be at 147. Anything less wont mean anything.

            Would be a good fight but I don't think it should happen, Mosley will be 155+ on fight night at 147 and Pacquiao will be at a huge disadvantage... at a catch weight Mosley would most likely will be dehydrated and weight drained at a huge disadvantage... either way it isn't fair on either fighter.

            I hope a Mayweather fight comes off if he beats JMM convincingly and as long as he doesn't seem rusty, if so he might need another tune-up.

              my vote jst took it from 50/50 to 23 for mosley to 22 cotto.....i dunno who would be harder, i think they would be just as hard in their own ways for pac....but as mosley is the champion i think pac should go for him, aswel as havin better stamina then he should cos of age....either fight id be happy to see tho!
