    Actually man, Cotto is the reason I'm starting to get a tiny bit frustrated with JuanMa. I mean, he fought some pretty badass dudes in his early days at 140. Lontchi, raw ass Ponce, and an ancient overmatched Penalosa don't match up to guys like Corley, Bailey, and Torres.

    He's young and it's his right to be matched carefully, but it's time for him to take that next step very soon, and he hasn't been battle tested anything like Cotto.

    IMO, Caballero is the best fight for JuanMa, here's why:
    - Caballero is P4P no. 9... Where's JuanMa P4P??
    - Caballero is Ring Mag's no. 1 Super Bantam... JuanMa is no. 2...
    - Caballero got 2 SB belts, WBA and IBF... JuanMa only got 1, the WBO...
    - It's great to see a unified super bantam champ with 3 belts...

    Yep, and I think even with Izzy and Rafa on the comeback trail, the winner is probably the best fighter at 122.
