    I'd like to see Junior in with these guys. They proved to be formidable MW's and good boxers. I would be interested in seeing how Junior stacks up against a pure boxer.

    I think he beats Macklin,but if Barker could get by the problem he seems to have with conditioning(why is that??) then I think he has the tools to give Jnr a very difficult night indeed.
    I think Macklin might even get stopped late,but I wouldn't rule out a Barker victory.

    The only advantage Chavez Jr has over those two is a considerable size advantage. Its a shame because that may be enough For Jr to beat both fighters as well.

    Macklin is definitely more skilled than Chavez. However, as Jr weighs 180 he can take a beating.

    JCC Jnr would beat both Barker & Macklin! But the fight would have to be at SMW!
