OK, so how does Floyd become #1 by beating the #2 guy?

[flexxx145]

I actually don't have a problem with Manny being #1 on the p4p list right now because it will motivate PBF to knock him off the top spot. But PBF is the #1 WW because he beat the #1 WW.

did manny beat the #1 ww?no so how did he become the #1 ww?

Seems that to be number one, you have to beat the number one guy, in this case Manny Pacquiao. Last week, Manny was numero uno, Shane was second. Floyd beats Shane now he's number one? LOL, **** don't work like that. The Ring is losing credibility with this one.

145 pounds cotto was NOT the number 1 welterweight when catchweight king beat him in any rankings at all - FACT

cotto was number 1 when he beat mosley, margarito was number 1 when he beat cotto, mosley was number 1 when he beat margarito - FACT

you picked shane to beat floyd and got embarrassed and ****ted on by many posters, yet you never learn do you?....

shane beat the **** out of margacheato and became the number 1 welterweight let me explain again if you are a ******, this happened:




outcome: cotto ranked as number 1




outcome: margarito ranked as number 1 (they didnt know about plaster back then)



Outcome: mosley murders him and gets the number one ranking




Outcome: mayweather dominates mosley and gets the number one ranking


Mosley was ranked 1 by everyone before his fight with mayweather except ring, ring magazine had mosley number 1 before pacquiao vs cotto.

THAT WAS WHAT WENT WRONG, PERIOD.

Ring magazine ranked the winner of pacquiao-cotto as number 1 when NONE OF THEM WERE RANKED number 1 in the first place, it was Mosley. Thats when they lose their credibility....

He beat Cotto.

Didn't Floyd become #1 ww after beating Judah who lost to Bladomir?

I'll explain.

Mayweather was #1 welterweight in 2007 and then retired.

After he retired in 2008, Cotto and Margarito became #1 AND #2 WELTERWEIGHTS.

Margarito beat Cotto.

Shane beat Margarito

Floyd beat Shane

Floyd has the lineal title, thus #1.

Pacman beat the #3 WW and #5 or 6 WW...Floyd beat the #1 WW

Mosley wasn't the #1 welterweight, Pacquiao was.
