Yeah that was one of the few things Merchant has said recently that I wholeheartedly agree with. Put these dudes in with each and let's see what they're made of.
On the other point though, I'm getting tired of seeing insanely tall fighters fighting at such low weights. Guys like Celestino Caballero, Paul Williams and Ronald Hearns are not in their right weight classes. It's clear as day. It's one thing if you're that tall, but naturally skinny. It's another thing if you're just draining yourself dry to be in a weight class you feel like you have physical advantages in. Ronald ain't doing himself a favor draining his power out of himself to make weight.
