How is Margarito the recognized welterweight champion?

hes the #1 guy in my eyes.

 

Why the **** does he need to rematch Clottey?

 

You can't really say Williams if he lost to the Guy Cotto destroyed. before the Cotto-Margarito would anyone say Williams should have been rated over Cotto? No way because Cotto destroyed Quintana, who in turn beat Williams. Now Margarito won in convincing fashion against Cotto, So he is the top dog right now. Simple as that.

 

FLOYD BEAT THE UNDISPUTED RECOGNIZED WELTERWEIGHT CHAMP OF THE WORLD....MARGARITO DIDNT..."REAL FAN" MY A$$

 

I love how you Joyboy ****heads will say that Floyd was the champ at 147 when he didn't fight anybody worth a damn, yet on the flipside Tony isn't champ and he's faced 4 guys in the top 10.

Shows how dumb you joyboys really are.

 

I LOVE HOW YOU "MARGO BOYS" SAY MARGOS THE CHAMP WHEN THERES 3 OTHER TITLE HOLDERS AND 1 OF EM BEAT UR BOY HANDILY....SHOWS HOW MUCH YOU KNOW ABOUT BOXING

 

Floyd was the recognized champ at 147 based on him beating the lineal champ. Cotto was not the lineal champ. And the two weren't the consenus no.1 and no.2 in the division. I really don't know under what standard Margarito would be considered the recognized champ.

 

If there is no recognized champ, (Mayweather retired), and Cotto was #1 with Margo being #2, I don't see how you wouldn't consider him champ?

What does he need to do? From what I understand, that's how they crown ring champions.

 

yeah that was a dumbass comment to ever doubt Floyd Jr.:nono

 

You didn't even watch the fight.

Just slap yourself.

Latter part by the way? The fight went 12 rounds, not 8 fool.

Slap yourself again.

Except for two fights ago he lost to Williams, The WBO champ. Id say they are both tied for number 2

 

Agreed.
