    except PBF and DLH right now? and who would they beat?

    Pac (already 112, 122, 126, 130) and can beat Diaz for 5.
    112 (wbc), 122 (ibf), 126 (ring/undisputed), 130 (ring, wbc)

    jmm?
    126 (wba, wbc), 130 (wbc), 135- diaz (wbc), malignaggi (ibf)...ummm...no, I dont think he can do it...


    anyone that you think is capable of doing so?

    It would have to be someone quite small...

    Someone like Dawson, even if he were the best in the world couldn't boil down to MW...

    So...best bet is to go up to LHW...so: WW, LMW, MW, SMW, LHW...

    ...any tall-isht great WW prospects out there?

    Otherwise, you start with the really small men who finish up as WWs.

    Nonito Donaire.. He can do it at 112,115,118, 122 & 126. He's tall & has the Frame to hold extra Muscles. His style also will keep him safe for bigger punchers up to 126.

    pac is still 29 years old he might do it against david diaz.

    jmm is not getting younger anymore. very doubtful.

    i thought eric morales could do it when he was younger..

    He got 122, 130 Then what??? 135?, 140 & 147??? He can't even hurt or KO opponents above 122. We don't need another Mallinaggi.
