    YEs, but 126 and 130 isnt far apart and fighters in those divisions move up and down, fight each other all the time..

    Size would not be a big of an issue here although Linares is the harder puncher.

    I would love to see this fight. I think Chris John was very impressive against Juarez. Linares has mad skills. I think this fight is really close. I'd favor lLinares very very slightly.

    I truthfully agree. Chi is a good fighter though. John has a lot of potential to be an elite fighter, from what I have seen of him. I see JMM type greatness in Linares though.
