    If you are thinking of mixing it up a bit more with a few guys from different eras...maybe some guys like Raf Marquez, Sahaprom, Lora, Goldstein ????

    Rose, Castillo, Olivares, Rudkin, Herrera are all pretty close together thats all.

    If you want to keep it to fighters we have a decent amount of footage of, I would definitely suggest including Jeff Fenech, Happy Lora and Lupe Pintor.

    yeh good idea to mix it up. I'll drop Castillo and Rudkin as Rose and Olivres are part of my top 4 Bantams and Herrera is a dark horse IMO

    I think i should

    Definately put Rafa Marquez in, it would be good to have a real modern fighter and he's of better quality than Hasegawa.

    This is a very deep weight class. One which could easily accomodate 32 rather than 16. I certainly wouldn't be looking to lose Brown or Castillo and would enhance it with fighters such as Rodolfo Martinez, Jesus Pimental, Joe Becerra and Venice Borkorsor. With all the other names bandied about here, that's 29. Add in Alfonso Zamora, Gaby Canizales and Albert Davila and you're ready to roll.
