    He IS the man at 147 because he beat the man who WAS the king at 147.

    Ring Magazine's ratings panel voted before the fight and decided that the Mosley - Margarito fight would NOT be for the Ring title.

    I think Mosley is the best fighter at welter but can't be the champ until he beats Cotto.

    He should be the man at Welter coz he beat the guy previously acknowledged as THE MAN at welter.

    You'll see. Shane and Naazim will employ a much more aggressive strategy that Cotto will not like. :lol:

    Here's the shitty part for me, below is the list of my favorite fighters:

    1. Chad Dawson
    1a. Shane Mosley

    3. Cotto
    4. Pavlik
    5. Paul Williams

    So when Shane and Cotto fought, it was tough for me. In the end, I go for Shane because I've been a fan of his for so damn long.

    I hope they do the rematch while Margarito heals. Mosley fighting Cotto or Mayweather is what I really want.

    We know Shane is THE MAN at welter but we are talking about who is the Champion.

    Yes, he should be, but I guess he'll have to fight the No. 2 in Ring to be their champion.

    Of course he is! Maybe Paul has the only other claim to be the #1 man.

    Mosley is the number 1 but not the man.

    I think Mosely needs to beat Cotto for that claim to be solid especially considering Margarito may have had loaded gloves in the Cotto fight.

    IMO, Margarito doesn't have really heavy hands which casts a big cloud of doubt over his recent big wins. The damage to Cotto's face was just shocking.
