      Lomachenko against lipinets. Mikey Garcia v horn. I'd give Spence a great shot at beating Saunders.

          Good thread idea!

          Crawford jumping from 140 to 154 maybe. Think he could beat Ali and do it pretty easily. Heck think he could beat lara too.

          Think loma could jump from super feather to 140 too, beat any number of guys there. Troyanavsky, lipinets, maybe even indongo.

          Inoue moving up to super bantam even. Feather?

              Lomachenko, as mentioned. All titles are vacant at 140 besides IBF possessed by Lipinits, who Lomachenko beats anyhow.


              I really can't think of anybody else though. When is the last time this has happened, historically? I recall hopkins jumping from 160 to beat Tarver at 175. Think Manny did it too, but can't recall if he jumped two divisions.

                I Think Khan could beat Saunders. Considering that Saunders can't punch Amir would be quicker.

                  Lomachenko
                  Spence
                  Jermell Charlo
                  Jermall Charlo
                  Jarret Hurd

                  Could easter go to 147 and beat Horn? Certainly has the height and reach, and he wouldn't look half as drained as he does at 135. Dunno if he'd win though.

                    Hurd would also beat Truax.
