    Cotto at 154 WITH USADA testing or no fight.

    I would love to see JMM mix it up with big names, but Bradley is hardly worthy. JMM against top names at 140 all day. Money fights!

    well let them fight at 154 even if pac wighs in at fight night at 144-148, while cotto weighs at weigh in at 154 and weigh at fight night at his own desired weight. It's not logical, but you have to look at the pac-margo fight wherein margo weighed in at 160+.

    the eventual winner would be surely a ticket to a floyd fight, at 154.


    if pac insist fighting at 147, then fight marquez or bradley, not against cotto.

    JMM-Bradley fight would be a fantastic fight, but with low PPV result. but i dont care about ppv numbers. boxing fans would be the winner on this fight.

    Arum's half right.

    JMM-Bradley would be a phenomenal match-up.

    He's also egregiously half wrong.

    Pac-Cotto is useless.

    I know you don't care. Just like you won't care when Boxing ravages his body.

    Unlike you I realize that JMM is stretching to campaign at 140 let alone 147. He has more than enough GREAT fights at 140 that will draw better and be more interesting than Bradley. As a Boxing Fan I would rather see those than Bradley ANY DAY.

    Regardless of how Bradley did against Pac... Bradley is blah. Name an exiting fight Bradley has been in either technically or action wise? Exactly. Boxing fans don't win or lose.

    Bradley used to fight at 140 so it doesnt matter. a belt at 140 and 147 for JMM would lift him more in the Mexican ATG rankings, more than JCC sr made, imo.

    It does matter. Bradley has had multiple fights at 147. JMM's last fight was at 140.

    JMM doesn't need lifting in Mexican ATG rankings. He is a HOF fighter period. JMM needs and deserves big fights. Bradley isn't a big fight no matter how you slice it.

    JMM will never be greater than JCC Sr. The styles won't allow it.

    seems you were never been a bradley fan since before his 140 days i think... you think jmm has to fight other 140ers like abril, khan, maidana than fight bradley at 140/144?

    I truly believe Pac don't want nothing to do with a healthy Timmy because Pac has been figured out!

    I haven't been. I love Bradley from the professionalism standpoint. He comes ready to fight. I have NOTHING negative to say about Bradley as a fighter. I love that he comes READY for war. His performances and skill set are a different matter. I feel he has poor accuracy and relies on rough tactics not Boxing skill. He impressed me with his use of Boxing skill against Pac though.

    I would love to see JMM against a strong 140 pounder with a solid name. Abril not so much, though I respect him. Abril is an A side fighter that is good to watch as long as he is the champion. I would LOVE to see a JMM/Maidana fight. IMHO, JMM is the perfect guy as though skilled he is vulnerable. I think 140 would be a money division for him.
