Hatton Too big and too strong. Juan Manuel wouldn't be nearly as effective at 140 as he is at 126 and 130 (think of Hatton moving up to 154).
And just like Pac vs Hatton this fight would end in a brutal KO in favor of Hatton. What the hell made you create this thead?
I think HAtton's size would cause Marquez problems. JMM is very technically sound and would counter Ricky all day. I'd say Ricky on size alone. If they were in the same wt class, then JMM by KO
Exactly! I'd venture to guess that 135 lbs would be as high as JMM's body frame would fight at effectively! To go up against a top caliber bruiser like Hatton at 140 lbs in a situation that would have Hatton outweight JMM at fight night by about 15 lbs, would be asking too much! I like JMM's chances againt Juan Diaz at 135 lbs......Diaz does'nt put on alot of weight after the official weighin. That would be an intrigueing matchup for JMM, a more competitive matchup imo than Juan Diaz vs Pac!
just like barrera, 130 is as high as jmm should go. jmm has already visibly lost a lot of his speed, reflexes, power, and chin (punch resistance) in the move from 126 to 130 as evidence of the barrera and juarez fights. and juarez is basically still a 126 lbs. fighter when jmm faced him. jmm will not be able to cope w/ the power and size of those big guys at 135. pac is already practically a lightweight. we'll see how jmm copes with pac's size, strength and power as pac will probably outweigh him by around 7 pounds come fightnight, 144-145 vs. 137-138. therefore, sizewise, pac will have a better chance vs. hatton @140 compared to jmm.
