    Im sorry but both of MAB's current crowns are at SuperFeather (130). But he is reported to be eyeing seriously a 135 meeting with Chavez for the latter's belt. It has been tentatively scheduled for March.

    I'm with you on your view that Manny is too small to think of campaigning at 135: provokes memories of Elorde meeting Ortiz twice.

    And, yup, Manny should prove to be a bait that's tough to resist for the likes of Larios, Guzman, Guerrero, et al (the last one still has to prove himself, though, but he remains a prospect in my eyes in spite of the recent loss) to move up in weight. If they continue to toil at Feather, they won't have a shot at a million-dollar payday. From where I sit, not even dates with JMM would rake in the money. Pac is their ticket.

    Damn, what wrong with me? You are right MAB has 2 belts at 130 not at 135. Sorry It's getting mixed up in my head.

      why nobody mentioning Barrios?

      IMHO, he is a good match for MAB, EM or PAC ...

        I'd prefer to see Barrios. Barerra should consolidate his hand at his own weight before moving up. Sure he's the best. But is he dominant? Great fighters dominate.

        Plus it's likely to be a fun matchup.

              Yup, Barrios ought to be in the mix. Sorry for the oversight! Unexplainable! Happy Holidays!
