      lara, cotto, dzinziruk, angulo, kirkland, cintron and margarito would all beat him imo

      he'd beat bundrage, rhodes, trout and perhaps matirosyan though, maybe foreman too but thats a toss up

      Whether he's ready or not. Is a strong possibility that he will not face any of those fighters.

      The question is if I expect him to vacate. I don't, because, he has no reason to. He already has a strong following. A bunch garbage ass nuthuggers already. GBP can milk him for a few more years. His fan base will eat up with the age excuse. There is no reason for me to expect that he will vacate the title. In theory it's nice because he just not ready. But, in reality is a very strong possibility that he holds the belt hostage and goes the Berto/WV2 route.

        u do have a point here...unless the wbc forces him to vacate but they do seem to favor popular mexican fighters so that might not even happen

        the question however is who will he fight? there arent many big names left at 147 that would actually be interested in facing him or would have the possibility to do so

          Good question, and I have no idea who he could face.

          All I know is that whoever it is, HBO will showcase, and his fans will say "He's only 20"

            I doubt he will fight anybody who possesses a risk until GBP cashes out on him, by putting him in their against Mayweather. He's a good boxer, but still in need of experience and development. He has potential, but due to his fame he will most likely be sacrificed to May 3 or 4 fights down the road. He's not proven, nor is he elite. He's not even in between being elite. He's nobody really within boxing, but he is being build up for a Mayweather clash, due to his popularity, and fame. Anybody who can't see this is blind. He will fight nobodies until he faces May.

            Him having a belt only reinforces, and illustrates the corruption in boxing. I don't expect him to fight top guys. He will keep fighting bums until GBP cashes out on him
