    Antillon?

    I don't know why Antillon was mentioned. But, you can replace him with the winner of Guerrero-Katsidis.

      Katsidis and Acosta can still deliver. There are also Robert Guerrero, Miguel Vazquez. But the crown is still on JMM's head.

          To me, even though these guys are good, they are still the lower tier of the division to me when you mention Soto, DeMarco, Guerrero, and Katsidis. JMM and Rios are the class of the division.

          I wanna see that fight so bad.

            yeah, it's stacked with mexicans.

            mexicans never give a bad fight usually.

            only one guy (JMM) is a true p4p fighter tho.

              It's kind of stacked, yeah. But there's one guy head and shoulders above everyone else. The rest of the fighters at lightweight are exciting but none of them are top p4p level guys.

                any mix between them would create fight of the year candidates but i think most of them would give hell to marquez bc of he fact of his age and its not his natural weight. But he would pick em apart in the latter rounds ala diaz and katsidis

                  I would add some others that add quality to the depth of the division, like Katsidis, Linares, Guerrero and Vazquez.

                  Don't think it's better than 118 though.

                    Marquez smashes Rios in my opinion. Come forward fighters = tailor made for Marquez. Just way too sharp and you know Marquez would land to the body like theres no tommorow.
