    Theres
    James kirkland
    Saul Alvarez
    Sergio Martinez
    Julio Cesar Chavez (if he loses weight)
    Cotto
    Margarito
    Mayweather

    Personally i would like to see the top 4 fight each other but they all seem to be calling out JCC jr. Kirkland hardly gets mentioned since his loss but this guy is dangerous for anyone at 154.
    If i could, i would make Alvarez vs kirkland
    martinez vs JCC and margarito vs angulo (war)

    thoughts?

    Jr. has trouble making weight as it is. Making 154 for him is impossible at this point.

    What makes you think Chavez can make Jr Middleweight with all his limbs?

    Get Margarito and Chavez Jr. off that list. Margarito is blind and Chavez Jr. rehydrated to cruiser for his last fight, the man already pops the diuretic pills just to make 160.

    Add Austin Trout(WBA Regular Champ), Carlos Molina, Vanes Martirosyan, Paul Williams, and Erislandy Lara.

    Austin Trout's career seems to have hit a dead-end. He had a waste of time fight in mid November and a big fat zero since.

    Chavez will never make 154.

    Margarito fights will have to be held in mexico from now on.

    Martinez will only come down for a Mayweather or Pacquaio bout. Possibly Cotto.

    Kirkland, Mollina, Alvarez, Lara, Angulo and Matiroysan (if he ever steps up) can have some fun fights though. Williams could be added to the mix as well.

    everyone from 140 can fight at 147 and pretty much everyone apart from chavez jr from 160 can get down to 154, these two divisions can have an incredible amount of action over the next three years.

    Chavez can make HW easier than he can make JMW.

    missing Lara and Williams in that list.
    Junior can barely make 160, forget about 154( unless fighting again in Texas :) )

    I see a lot of fighter A beats B, and A loses to C but B beats C.


    Some good **** coming up in that weight class, I'm pulling hard for Kirkland and Lara to get some nice fights.

    Chavez Jr. is more likely to go to 168 rather than 154.
    Margarito? Really? Other than that there are a lot of very good match ups.

    When I see a division like this, I get annoyed that boxers don't fight often enough :lol: Really, these lot could quite easily be in 3 huge fights. The best thing is, they'd all be very good fights, I think, and it'd lead to another 3 big bouts and then another 3. Sadly, boxers don't seem to be that interested in fighting tough opponent after tough opponent, which is why the Super 6 was such a great format.

    I do hope we get to see some of these though. I'd like Margarito in the mix too. Despite his injuries, I think he's still an elite level fighter. A rematch with Williams would be fun.
