    Its nearly 2 years since his death so how would he be doing now? What weight division would he be campaigning in? He had just given up his WBC lightweight belt to move up to light Welter. Would his power have carried up to light Welter and even Welter? Could he of mixed it with Bradley, Khan, Maidana and Alexander or maybe even with Pacquiao and Mayweather????

    Arum would've sacrificed him to Pacqiuao by now and his confidence would be shattered.

    He wasn't that powerful either. It's less his power travelling up that worries me, but rather what would've happened if he'd actually fought an 'Elite' fighter. Massively overrated.

    Still unbeaten with the 100% KO ratio.

    The story still had a little longer to run before the inevitable execution at 140.

    The correct answer.

    Obviously if he hadn't gone pyscho and ****ed up loads of peoples lives, then maybe he would be in some good fights. Him versus Rios would have been fun.

    Valero would lose against Bradley, he'd beat Maidana in a war & would knock out Khan. I think he'd beat Rios as well

    Marquez would school him, Pac would wear him down & bust him up.

    He was excellent against DeMarco. He had a lot of potential.

    I didn't really rate him or his punch power, although he was in some fun fights.

    Although I was pretty impresssed with his final fight against DeMarco. He began to show signs that he may have been able to adjust and operate at the top level given time.

    My guess is he would have been fed to Pacquaio by now and suffered a brutal early KO.
