So do I...
But Don King, fraudlent judges, Cory Spinks, all conspired to screw El matador, and force him out of the welterweight division, and become a fall guy for Tito Trinidad, King's main cash cow at the time, and later ODLH sadly. Its a damn shame. Mayorga was a beast at 147. I wish he could train his ass off and get back down there, he could easily win a title right now, against Kermit Cintron. He'd blast Cintron out quickly, but it'd be a thriller while it lasted.
Mayorga forced himself out of the Welterweight division.

He was supposed to fight Rivera and I know he would have won but he came in overweight
Yes, but that was AFTER the Spinks debacle. AFTER they STOLE his titles from him. And I think Rivera may have given Mayorga some trouble, but yeah he would have beaten Rivera.
