Over the next year or so, who will emerge as THE number 1 lightweight? VOTE

We don't know what Pac's future plans really are. There are so many things that could happen in the next year that its tough to predict what he'll do. We know he'll fight Hatton next but what if Paulie somehow beats him or even schools him? And even if he fights Hatton, he still has one more fight after that before he retires. In that one fight he could practically fight anybody. We know he likes to fight PBF but what if PBF doesn't return? As Pacfan said, he can't stay at 147 either and there's no other money-making machine in 140 other than Hatton. So if PBF doesn't return(I hope he seriously doesn't) he would have to go back to 135 and fight THE top man there because that's the only guy who can generate huge money for Pac.

So if what I said above happens, then I think Pac has the best chance to be the top man at 135. Don't get me wrong though whoever that top guy Pac fights(I'm guessing its either Guzman, Campbell, J. Diaz or JMM) could easily spoil Pac's return and beat him. But I'm gonna have to go with Pac.

Otherwise if Pac does not return back at 135. I would think that J. Diaz would have the best chance at emerging as the top man at LW again. I'd like JMM to be that guy though, but I'm still not sure if he can be successful at this weight even after beating Casa.

 

Tell that to Joan Guzman
