    Cotto is with Bob Arum, so the Ring will ignore him
    That is why they have Bernard Hopkins (Hopkins is 3-3 in his last 6 fights) ranked number 3 and Mosley who was not even in the top 10 before the Margarito fight jumps over to #4. Then Cotto gets drop from #7 to #9 after his win over Clottey.

    The Rings Rankings are ****ed up.

      I think alot has to do with him not being the draw and being quiet. Many say that he lets Top Rank do the talking and never calls anyone out. TRUE, but whatever fighter top rank put in front of him he fights. You don't hear him make excuses when he lost or even after the "plaster" drama. He fights boxers that at the time noone wants to fight. Now EVERYONE wants to box margarito, WHERE was EVERYONE 2-4 yrs ago? 2-3 yrs ago, noone wants to fight clottey or pacquiao and now they do.

      I sincerely hope that if Cotto wins, he just retires and tells everyone to f**k themselves...that would be sweet. He'll have beaten Pacquiao, clottey, judah, Quintana, mosley and lost to a boxer that will always be known as a cheater...that's not a bad resume.

        People only want to fight Margarito now because they saw how easy it is to destroy him without his plaster.

          lol.... that's ironic, coming out of a cotto fan!!!!

            Actually, Pac called out Margarito before he was caught cheating.
            BTW, Cotto is held in extremely high regard in the Philippines, no matter
            what impression you get from some of the 'tards on this forum.

              Yes I'm a fan of Miguel Cotto. Your point? I couldn't think of an awesome username like yours so this was my choice. I'm a fan of boxing first before any man.
