But I wouldn't say his competition is stellar by any means, but he's done enough to be called a true champ imo and I don't think Margarito is at the point yet where he could be any sort of black cloud over Mayweather's head. Now if he disposes of Clottey in impressive fashion, you can say who is Margarito or who is Clottey all you want, that would be impressive and probably warrant SOME sort of title shot.
Yea for sure, if MArgarito is impressive in victory tomorrow night, he certainly has alot more claim to the status he has already been given for whatever reason.
