Margarito getting another title shot, WTF?

[PACnPBFsuck]

The best thing about it is that Margarito is going to become champion at 154 and the Cotto fans will once again cry a river.

I got Margarito winning also, but the title shot is too much.

I guess that must be it takes now, not being good, just knowing good people.

It's always been that way, even in boxing. When the mob was in control of the sport, they decided who would get title shots and had people throwing fights for profit/favors.

In 1960, [Jake LaMotta] was called to testify before a U.S. Senate sub-committee that was looking at underworld influence on boxing. He testified that he had thrown his bout with Billy Fox so that the mob would arrange a title bout for him.

Just the way of the world.

Maybe they are making up for all the title shots he missed when he was being avoided for about 4 years....

Dude be honest, he lost to Daniel ****in Santos. WHen you lose to a bum like that you don't deserve a title fight.

Its just amazing that he is in line for another huge payday and a title shot. Like somebody mentioned before it is his promotional company that gets him all these undeserved high profile matches

True indeed!!!!

Arum will use the belt as a promotional tool to hype up the fight. It's a business decision to include the belt for a promoter to maximize profit.
