    Clottey had to vacate his title - it's definitely just for Cotto's belt.
    We can't have the sanctioning bodies allowing a partial unification can we?
    We had one in Bradley for about 10 seconds but they put that to an end too.

    It doesnt matter. Shane Mosley is the true champion. Cotto/Clottey are just contenders who happen to hold belts.

    No, but whoever wins it is more deserving of the title than whoever the IBF make fight for the vacant belt.
