    I would have loved to see Floyd v Joel at 130 back in the day. Or 135. Casamayor could be a mean SOB. Shame he never got the opportunity for either guy.

    That division isn't as strong as 126.Pac, Morales and Marquez gave much bigger guys trouble at the higher weights. Castillo got popped by hugton. Frietas and Casa are alright i guess.That division isn't as strong as you envisioned.

    The only fighter i see as real threat to pac besides Morales, Marquez was Humberto Soto. Frietas, hmmm, i just don't see him have the Mexican heart.Casamayors chin is suspect AF! Look as I have told you. I won't repeat it again. That division isn't that hot pop pop pop barratt tat tat!

    Pac was smaller than MAB, JMM, and EM the first time they fought. Ppl need to check the tape. For a 1st fight at 135 after having fought at 122 just 5 years earlier its not so bad. What was Ward's first fight at 175 after a career at 168? Paul Smith. Floy's first fight at 147? Sharmba Mitchell. Roy Jones fought John Ruiz at HW...

    However I would have preferred he stay to clean out LW after David Diaz. The Oscar fight was more like a WWE event
