    People are really, truly underestimating JMM and Cotto lol... JMM is being dismissed as some little lw when in fact he is not little at all. Some of you guys have to really do the research when it comes to analyzing figters. The same guys who thought Pac had no chance to beat Dlh did not recognize the fact that Dlh was coming down in weight, and that Pac was going up...

    Hop's absence made me drop him to 4. Pac was 4 on my list, but with his win over Hatton, he moved up to 2 behind only Floyd with JMM at 3. There is no reason why anyone should be ranked above Floyd until he loses.

    Your foolish to totally discredit JMM floyd is not a big WW, you obviously haven't watched the versatility of JMM. Number 2 is the question.

    This is what bothers me about some fans lol. They don't recognize the real at times, and can't keep it real at all the time. Say JMM will lose at least, but calling it a mismatch is a disrespect to JMM lol...

    Also someone pointed out something about Freddie Roach and if he can see something in Cotto to exploit, well if you look at what he saw in Hatton with him talking about Hatton cocking his hand back everytime he throws a certain punch then if he has seen something like that to exploit in Cotto, like a technical flaw then the fight may pan out totally different to how we envision it. But also when you beat on a bigger man, it takes more out of you and can Pac deal with Cotto in close like in clinches, all of these factors may swurve in Cotto's favour, it is an interesting match up but I would of liked to see it at 147 because Roach is pinning his hopes on Cotto messing up the weight.

    I don't. Cotto is going to win the fight in my eyes. Again, Roach is gambling. The biggest fight is going to be blown when Pac loses. PBF will have no choice, but to take on Cotto who I feel will outbox easily. Pac style would match-up so much better with PBF. As far as Marquez, I feel he is overmatched due to his style. PBF is going to beat him easy and then he is going to talk trash during the interview and tell everyone who wants to listen that he beat the great Marquez.

    Almost 2 years. Let me throw this at you lol. Floyd retires the best fighter in the world, and he has come bac. Are you saying that you need one fight to judge where to rank Floyd? What if Floyd struggles but wins...will you rank him below Pac?

    You have to rank Floyd now Radab, or after the JMM fight. You can't properly rank him when he fights Pac unless you want to wait that long.
