    A 140lb tournament with Khan, Bradley, Alexanda, Maidana, Mallinaggi and AN Other would be fucking excellent.

    A lot of the 147 matchups have happened already. Clottey doesn't belong in a hypothetical tournament IMO. He wouldn't be favored in any matchup.

    140 would be my choice with Bradley,Holt, Alexander,Khan, Maidana,Lamont Peterson.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    Yeah, Moorlignaggi is extremely overrated,.. I wish websites would cease giving him so much attention, he's not very good. Arab pro-fighters are extremely rare, yet he still falls well short of Arthur Arabham and Vic Darchinyan.

    Dude got demolished by a shot Ricky Hatton. He's not elite no matter what belt he holds, same for Urango. That's why I kept both out of my top 140 guys. At least Holt/Peterson will bring action and skill to the fights.

    I'm not all that keen on seeing Mosley fight any more. And Clottey isn't really a threat to win this.

    It's not gonna be possible with the big, big names...so we can forget 147. The fighters in the super 6 have all had to compromise on a number of issues in order for the competition to happen...purse splits, fight venues, fight schedules etc. Why would Floyd, for example, agree to all that, when he can pick a fight against whoever he likes and dictate pretty much everything?...from purse splits to drug tests.


    With that in mind, i think 140 is a good shout. There's a good blend of talent, style and characters

    Don't think Pac-Floyd needs anything tagged on to it, tbh. Thats THE fight people wanna see there. And even a tournament between the other four to fight the winner doesn't really work since Cotto, Mosley & Clottey have all just had their asses handed to them by one or the other.

    140 & 126 are good choices. Think 175 could work great, too. Dawson, Cloud, Braehmer, Cleverly, Erdei, Pascal/Johnson.

    I think he lacks the certain hardness to beat Manny

    I actually think 175 would be best. That'd be the one I'd most wanna see.

    I won't help any since he is known for his softness, while Manny can use his movement to compensate the lack of reach

    Let's face it, Clottey would be too slow and methodical; all deep eye contact and long deliberate strokes. With Pac, chick wouldn't know what she was gonna get from that little pecker, fast and brutal, penetrating from every angle, tossing her all over the bedroom, going ALL night.:cheer:

    Clotty would have reach but in this case.. manny's speed wouldn't help him
    he'd shoot his load too fast
