Is Margarito The #1 Welter Now?

[Famoso Matador]

I feel bad for Margarito because no one will give him the opportunity. I dont know how good he is, until he beats someone whom is considered a world top four talent. He is for sure in the top four, but what i dont know is wether or not he would beat the other three.

********* has Margarita #1, Carlos #2, Zab #3, Shane #4, Collazo #5.

only the IBF is vacant

If you look at the rankings. They seem to be pushing Mosley for every belt, except Margaritas which his rankings are all no names other than Joel Julio (who seems like a likely opponent).

This leads me to belive DLH will push Mosley for the vacant..maybe against Cintron?

Margarito spent 8 years, 25-3-0 fights, before challenging for his first belt. From Santos who in 6 years leading to his fight with Margarito, defended his Welterweight belt three times after winning it. Santos holded a belt in his fourth year w/23 something fights. Four years later, still hadnt fought anyone, other than Santos, while trying to move up.

That being said, I think he is #1 right now.

Do a search and you will see that I claimed Margarito as the best Welter. I think he beats everyone 147 down, including PBF. Zab would get KTFO in 2 vs. PBF.

Ok, supposely Margarita is 27, but he started boxing in 1994! 1994 to 2005 is like 11 years, so his record must of been recorded at 16 or 17???

i would consider margarito and a 147 floyd #1 contenders with mosley #2.judah #3

[whdempsey]

Whether he has all the belts or not, Baldomir beat the undisputed champ. To suggest that Margarito is number one is silly IMO. I know I know, I'm sure Margarito could dispose of Baldomir inside 6 rounds, but he hasn't.

Exactly what I was gonna say. I don't know what I was thinking when I voted. Whoops.

I htink Floyd is number one followed by Mosley, Margarito and I'm too disgusted to even list the guy I wnate to list at number 4. Zab makes me pukey
