    So many great fights to be made in the near future, 140's where it's at.

    Name the fights you badly want to see.

    The main names at 140, now and soon to be:

    JMM
    Lamont Peterson
    Adrien Broner
    Danny Garcia
    Amir Khan
    Mike Alvarado
    Lucas Matthysse
    Brandon Rios
    Zab Judah


    Tim Bradley and Guerrero could be included, as could Maidana.


    140's the new 147. :smoke

    Personally think Garcia/Broner will be a hell of a fight when it does inevitably happen.


    That's going to be one of the superfights of the new generation.

    Probably will happen in the next 2 years. Zab's still a good name to have on your resume.

    any of them together makes a good fight
    Matthysse vs Peterson
    Matthysse vs Rios
    Rios vs Peterson
    are probably the most excitin ones that can be made
    Broner is gonna have so much trouble at this weight

    Adrien Broner/Lamont Peterson
    Danny Garcia/Zab Judah
    Lucas Matthysse/Brandon Rios (I think Matthysse is with GBP & Rios is with TR)

    At his age Marquez going back to 140 would most likely be a mistake.

    Depends on the fight I think. Rios and Matthysse would be taken to school. I'd fancy his chances again Garcia too. After that they're tough calls. A young speed merchant is not what he wants to be facing at his age, i.e. Broner. Peterson is also a tricky fight I think. Clever fighter.

    As much trouble Broner would have, he would give every fighter on that list trouble. Matthysse might be the only guy to hit harder than Broner, but Broner has the speed advantage.

    I am dying to hear your assessment.

    Judah is not likely to be in the mix if he loses his next fight. It's probably his last run at a title. Other than him, I'd love any permutation of those fights.
