Funny that so many ppl here talk about Margo as the number 1 WW, and The Ring has him at number 3. Also funny that he has been in the ratings for 313 weeks and still cant get to number 1, actually Cotto has been in the ratings for 32 weeks and is above him. Also notice that Mosely in under Cotto and Margo. I bet ppl in here will go balistic about that, since so many ppl in here think he can beat anyone at WW (not me). I actually think the rankings are spot on. Only thing that can be debatable is Cotto and Margo which could be the other way since Margo has been winning for so long, even though I think Cotto beats him.
What??? Are you serious? If the y really wanted to put a U.S fighter in the ratings they should have at least put Chambers(even though he does not deserve it either). Arreola simply did not fight and beat anybody of a notice.
There is a thread about it already and you can find at least 10 other names that deserve to be there way before Arreola.
Geez...... I made the thread to talk about WWs not HWs. HW is the worst division in the sport right now, lets talk about the WW rankings (the best division in the sport right now)
Sorry, my fault. I was just trying to make a point about Ring Magazine credibility. What the **** Urkal is doing in top 10?
Hey menzo, ring had Margarito as the number one welterweight a few days ago and was number one for a very long time. He just barely got dropped to 2nd and Cotto was given the spot. Mayweather is considered champion. Margo must have been dropped to second due to his innactivity, he hasn't fought since last december and Cotto has fought twice since then. Get that straight at least.:verysad
Why, Baldomir have good wins over the linear champion of Judah and hype of Gatti. He lost recently only to #1 pvp .... and haven't been knocked out or something. Collazo comming from loses either and Clottey isn't there yet.
Its problem of proper timing. Mosley is fighting not very frequently and Margo is fighting taugh guys constantly. However Cotto is very impressive comming from good win and Margo is on slight decline. If Margo wins with Williams impresively he may be above Cotto easily and there will not be any questions he is above Mosley. If Mosley win a title in impressive fashion then he may claim to be above Cotto and Margarito, but right now I don't know where the problem is? The rankings are about the right.
