    Don't forget Marquez who I expect will be stepping up I'd predict later this year, and I'd guess to face Hatton whether he wins or loses against Pac. If JMM did step up (as no doubt will Amir Khan and maybe Juan Diaz by the years end) plsu with guys like Victor Ortiz coming through, imagine what the Jr Welters would look like then!!!

    I dunno about Marquez moving up to 140 I read a Nacho Beristain interview about the Juan Diaz fight where Nacho says

    "Remember Marquez is a true featherweight who found himself at lightweight chasing a third fight with Manny Pacquiao. Lightweight is really not his weight."

    What's funny about the Holt/Bradley matchup is that Holt is so much taller than Bradley. Did any of you guys see them standing next to each other after the Holt/Hopkins fight a few weeks back? It's literally like DLH standing next to Pacman. P4P, i think Bradley is the better fighter but Holts got a real size advantage. It will be interesting.

    so many great potential fights, i really hope Manny retires after he whoops Hatton, cuzz i doubt he'll wanna fight any of these guys, but if he does, that'll be great....i'd love to see Pac-Torres, or Pac-Bradley, hell even Pac-Holt, or Pac-Urango

    this is shaping up to be one of my favorite divisions

    yeah holt can really hit, but.....i dont think his chin would hold up to Manny's power, but it would be a great fight

    Holt has power, but he is inconsistent.

    Manny TKO 8
