When Pacquiao beats Cotto

[Master]

Beat you?

I was just informing my fellow saddo friends that catchweights are not a modern phenomenon.

Also Cotto is not THE MAN at welterweight. He holds a worthless alphabet title. So even if Pac beat him at 147 it wouldn't make him the TRUE welterweight champ (there's something to beat Pac with ).

Who is the man to beat at welter

Floyd was the lineal champion when he retired.

So we have to wait for Floyd to fight a proper welterweight and come out or retirement.

Well he is out of retirement.

If the champ retires the no.1 and no.2 ranked guys meet to establish THE MAN.. as it currently stands (using The Ring and the Saddo ratings) Cotto and Mosley would have to fight again to establish THE MAN.

BUt obviously Floyd is still here.

Cotto had beaten Mosley so he is the man. Forget Marg, he cheated

Floyd was still active when that fight happened.

You can't be THE MAN unless you beat the man.

...and what if THE MAN didn't want to fight you? That's what happened to Cotto...he should have gotten his shot at Floyd, it's not as if Floyd fighting him was going to be charity work or anything.

If THE MAN don't want to fight you it means he can earn more money elsewhere

He wouldn't fight Paul Williams either....I mean Floyd is as talented of a fighter as I have EVER seen, but MY GOD it's frustrating seeing how he does business.

While I understand all your points; he couldn't earn more $$$ in retirement Have you seen his rap video

But Floyd wouldn't still be considered lineal right? It would just be vacant, no?

I don't even know why I'm responding. I care nearly as much about "who's lineal" as obscenely rich boxers care about the opinions of message board fans.

The no.1 and no.2 have to meet to establish the new MAN. That hasn't happened.
