Cotto Now The #1 Ranked JR Middleweight By The Ring And ESPN

[ThePrince]

Cotto-Cintron on the PR day parade weekend at MSG next year makes sense to me. Should be easy to make since the frog is signed to Top Rank now (co-promoted I think).

For fighting Mayorga? LOL Jesus boxing is really a joke now.

I have no doubt that Mayorga would beat a majority of the guys in the top 10. The one who came into shape saturday night.

Either way...considering who's there and their inactivity, there isn't a problem with them. These guys need to fight and get weeded out.

He was ranked #1 at 140 for sometime. Don't confuse being the champ in the division with being ranked #1.

He was ranked the #1 contender. Contenders are ranked below the champion, obviously. Being ranked the #1 contender means you're considered to be the best of the rest.

do you even know what u talking about?

Dzinziruk is WBO Jr. Middleweight Champion and ranked number 8. you're logic is nothing but a ******. not about the champion. its about how good you really are they make the ranking. and Dzinziruk is nothing but a bum.

do you know wtf you're talking about?


we're talking about 140 not 154.

and we're talking about ring magazine rankings and ring magazine champions NOT some ****** WBO / WBC / WBA / IBF garbage rankings and titles.

next time know the topic before opening your mouth.

dumbfuck.

pretty much.

#1 in ring when there is no champion means you're the #1 ranked fighter in the division.

#1 in ring when there is a champion means you're the #1 contender in the division.

Dzinziruk is WBO Jr. Middleweight Champion and ranked number 8.

Your confusing the alphabet belt holders with the world champions. The only world champions are the lineal champions. The alphabet belt holders are just alphabet belt holders, nothing more. It is not possible, by definition, for more than one person to be the champion of the world in a given weight division at a given time.

calling cotto #1 at 140 back then would be like calling sturm #1 at 160 right now.

sturm is #1 but martinez is the champion at 160.

Cotto was definitely never the best at 140lbs.

didnt know that beating old man Mayorga could vault you to #1.

[Kevin Malone]

If you are gonna say ESPN just say "Dan Rafael". Those are his personal ratings.

Everyone is complaining but nobody is posting their educated opinions on who should be #1. Lets here them fellas.
