    JMM went up 2 weights to face Mayweather
    Juan Diaz went up a weight to face Malignaggi
    Nate Campbell has left the weight
    After winning a world title Edwin Valero is getting in all kinds of ****
    Guzman Funeka BS draw means a vacant world title
    Overweight Guzman beating Funeka means vacant world title
    New just in from the scene of boxing that Funeka was on banned substances to cut weight

    Hopefully Marquez moves back down and cleans up this mess. Including Soto

    A new face will be added when Kevin Mitchell beats Katsidis. The kid has a bit of skill on him. He made Prescott look silly. In his last fight he landed a right hand that actually lifted his opponent off the canvas. He is a good timing boxer.

    agreed lightweight is in shambles. Mitchell is OK but would most likely not be fighting for a title at this point in his career in a good lightweight division.

    Yeah I was impressed with Mitchells outpointing of Prescott. While I thought people were overating a guy most of them had only seen for 56 seconds I thought he would force Mitchell into a brawl. Very nice boxing exhibition. Hopefully Marquez vs Diaz is as competitive as before, leaving Diaz ranked afterwards.
