    For instance Calzaghe - power
    Khan - chin
    Pavlik - Speed (sorry fans i think he's pretty slow!)

    A chin for Kendall Holt. He'd probably be a beast at 140-147.

    Jmm - more power and a little more steady legs.but since its only one then just power.
    Margarito - more boxing skill
    Cotto - better defense. I think this would make him unstoppable. I still don't get why he doesn't call mayweather sr.
    Williams - to actually fight top guys at WW instead of calling them out and then fighting bums at other weight classes.

    Jmm has power hence knocking out a legitimate lightweight last time out.

    He has skill. It's understated, but he puts lovely combinations together to the head and body..he just isn't a sugar ray.

    His offense would compensate and his punch resistance could still be an issue against the biggest punchers at 147.

    Beat "the man" at 147. :good

    Cotto really just needs better head movement. He's very straight forward and that leaves him wide open for those straight rights and uppercuts. A guy like Mayweather Sr would fix him up a bit in that department.

    I disagree.

    Boxing has a long history, and there would be 10 or more Heavyweights with better resumes than Wladimir. He wouldn't fight his brother, so who else is out there for him to solidifying himself as a top 10 Heavyweight?

    Margarito - hand speed

    No ****er would beat him if he had fast hands.
