    not saying that nate doesn't deserve having 3 belts. just pointing out how and why he might feel that way about nate.

    fighting nate was a mistake at least on his managerial side. if he didn't lose to nate , juan would be fighting manny on november for mucho dinero......
    I see what your saying.

      he's had some great wins, but some great losses too.
      i actually think nate would give manny a harder time than juan diaz.

      that's just my opinion.

      as a manny fan i wanted juan to win.

        I dont think thats true even in the slightest, Juan Diaz has been at 135 almost his entire career and has been taking good shots from guys like Campbell and Freitas, i sincerely doubt Manny would just overpower him.

          You pretty much went with the original weight divisions and some, but the fact is the Cruiserweight division has been born out of necessity. There is a big gap in size between the large heavies and light heavies. Where would these fighters go? Some of the other divisions can go though. Like super midle which was an ideal hiing place for Calslappy whilst his peers were in their primes.

                  i'm old school. i hate how they say floyd and manny are 5 division champions or that oscar is a 6 division champion.

                  like what they did was better than what armstrong did? please.....

                  i could care less about cruiser. most cruisers walk around at 220. isn't that how much mike tyson and tua weighed in their primes? hell , byrd had to put on weight to make 210!

                  hmmm...... mr. calzaghe would've had to fight in hopkins or roy's division back then...... how would he have done?
