    I just heard that he plans on moving up to 140. I guess that is good news that we wont ever see Morales vs Soto.

    Soto don't belong at 140 pounds. His body size is too small for him to move up. Alexander, Bradley, Maidana, Ortiz, Khan would destroyed Soto.

    No one else wants to fight him at 130. Pac and Soto should have fought LONG long time ago.

    Soto's career has been a cluster**** due to some bad luck and stuff.

    Ive never been more disapointed in a fighter than i am in Soto.. WHen he came in as IN Jin Chi's replacement to face Juarez, he looked phenomenal and sky was the limit but then he shits on himself fight after fight. There was a time when i proclaimed him as Pac's cyptonite but i now i couldnt feel more stupid.

    **** HUmberto Soto

    He was fun to watch at 126/130 but he clearly doesn't belong anywhere above those weights. As a lightweight, he has nearly no snap on his punches and he doesn't bring that same fire.. He needs to get his lazy ass back down to 130..

    Soto's limit is 135. He's not even going to be a factor at 140.

    RIos is pretty exciting but Ji Hoon Kim got that greenlight on him.

    The KOrean Killa is coming

    He was barely getting by at 135. He'll be irrelevant at 140.

    yea that true. some people not long ago were disappointed he wasn't fighting Anthony Peterson when I had said Rios was more of a threat than Soto was. Soto on a downward spiral and needs to do something drastic like a new trainer or something. He'll be a non factor at 140. Would of liked to see him against Katsidis, Funeka, or Guzman at 135 before he goes challenging one of the 140lb killers. To be honest, I think any of those 3 would beat him.

    Bam bam will chase him at 140. :yep

    I think rios is big even at 140, he weighted 151-152 during fight time against peterson. Soto can run but he cannot hide. LOL

    Don't get me wrong man, I like soto as a fighter.
