Here are the Jr. Middleweight Champs: WBC - Manny Pacquiao WBA - Miguel Cotto IBF - Cornelius Bundrage WBO - Serhiy Dzinziruk Why did he received so much flak fighting Margarito when he can possibly beat the other belt holders?
agreed. it would be great for his legacy if he unified the belts at junior middle. It just shows how noone cares abot belts these days. Why isn't Cotto trying to Unify,instead of figting Mayorga. Cpttp vs Bundrge would be fun to watch.
Quite simple really he fought and won the vacant title at a This content is protected . I think pac destroys all 4 of them. JMW division is weak, which is why cotto moved up there.
the flak is cos it was for a catchweight and cos Tony was coming off a suspension. But i honestly thing Tony beats all the other 3 champions. although not watched Dzinziruk so cant be sure on that. Manny againt Bundrage would be dangerous due to his punching power and size. but manny would be favourite
it sucks he can easily unify welter and light middle I even think he might pick up a belt at middle if he faced sturm. Problem is at this point they only choose big money fight, so besides cotto 2 those other fights would never happen.
He already beat Cotto, K9 would be easy as pie for him, Dzinziruk I doubt he'd looked great against but im sure he'd win so yes he could, but we want to see him fight Mayweather jr. or Martinez and that won't change.
The question isn't really, can he unify the division?...it's how long would it take for him to unify the division? And, would we see decline from him whilst he attempted it? Pacquiao's been in some wars throughout his career, it's not out of the question that this could maybe catch up with him at any point...speed, reflexes, footwork, etc. And with him being hit by bigger guys, this could happen sooner rather than later. 147, or 140lbs is the way to go if anything... (Also, I wouldn't like to see that or any other division unified via catchweight bouts...and that is most likely what we would be looking at)
Can he? I think he got an awesome shot. Should he? I think we all agree that he should fight at WW or JrWW till the twilight of his career from now on (of course barring Martinez coming down in weight).
