I don't know Max, Mijares is probably better than Calzaghe, you have to remember that Calzaghe is now 35. Mijares is 26 and has prime years to just give us supernatural display after supernatural display and 'Lacy' virtually everyone from 112-118.:yep ...if they dare to fight him.
Joe Lacy's nealry all at a bigger weight though. People are more Impressed with bigger men having fast hands.:deal
If more top level Mijares opponents get Lacyed however, doesn't that make Mijares subject for consideration as being better?:think If Joe lacy's Kessler... it'll be a damn long time though. Both of these men can move mountains, let's just appreciate them both equally, Guzman also.
thats top 3 p4p material there if he does win against those three. castillo-mijares is the one i most want to see. i'm pulling for my man castillo (been a fan for a few years), though i'm on the mijares express as well. both guys are the same size, so there wont be much of a height/reach advantages. mijares has faster hands, youth and more accurate punching. castillo is a better boxer, defensive fighter and has more experince against top opposition. castillo cuts like butter though.
The winner of this fight alone will be a top 10 p4p fighter. I agree Castillo is the man, but Mijares is my favorite fighter south of 122.
