Would a win over JMM, be better then Mayweather's wins over Corrales or JLC?

    Where as PBF @147 is clearly a missmatch for JMM and everyone knows it, so would Pac vs PBF @147.

    It is a combination too of Hatton being underrated and Pac's ability to fight at higher weight classes against top level competition being overrated. This based entirely on the DLH fight which is a terrible example because of DLH's performance.....not to take anything away from Pac he did a great job, but people shouldn't be so sold on him at higher weight classes based on 1 fight.

      the fights that matter require him to go up in weight hammerhiem sir...

      if u think he has no business @ 147 bcoz he is a featherweight you would've deprived him his great wins...

      imagine not having the opportunities to fight & beat casa & diaz, while strolling down in 126 limbo with luevano & billy dib...
      147 is too much. Even 140 can be too much for him. Juan Diaz has still a long way to prove himself.

          tell that to sam langford sir... who started from 135 all the way to HW...

          or duran who started professionally @ 118...

          you are underestimating jmm's ability to scale...

          if anything if ever jmm will lose this one or his ability to fight
          effectively @ 147 should be more attributed to him going 36 years IMHO...
          do you honestly rate what RJJ and Toney have done at HW? seriously? fcuk me.

            i wouldnt **** u ... not in ur or anyones dreams... spare the vulgarities...

            those wins they had in the HW division proved they can compete in classes higher than their own natural weight class...

            why be selective with toney & jones only?

            i did single out langford & duran...

            and if i may add PBF who started @ 130... PBF rose 4 weight classes and did fine... 4 being ur quota right?
