    For example how far up the divisions could PACMAN go and still be effective.
    Or Marquez could he step up even further through the divisions.

    Marquez can still be sucessfull at 135 because he has skills and is smart in the ring.

    Pacquiao needs his power and I doubt he can bring it at 135. He is done at 130:stir:

    I agree though that Pacquiao is probably best at 130, he started off his career at light flyweight. :eek:

    Fagquez could barely get it done at 130 versus old man Barrera and he still managed to get put down on all fours. Casamayor, Diaz, or Julio brutalize blockhead Faquez and end his career. :kick:

    I forgot Pacquiao can throw a right hand now. He might do good at 135 cause there has never been a two handed fighter before. :lol:

    but he will probably be a crooked politician by then. :cheer:

    I can definately see him having sucess at 126, probably that's it. Not bad being a 3 division champ though.:cheer:

    Oscar has the most power.

    He can fight Floyd on Monday night, and promote him on Tuesday night.

    Come to think of it, on May 5th, I think he'll be doing both at the same time.

    FIX! FIX! FIX!

    That said, Oscar TKO/KO 11 Flid.

    Don’t be so cynical my Orthodox friend.

    I too hope that Oscar teaches the pretty one a lesson, I am already planning my weekend around it.
    Phase one, get rid of “herâ€￾..

    I am stronger than Vic and I only weigh 90 pounds. I can pick up a mini cooper all by myself.

    I am not a "professional fighter" but I am still a fighter. I fight peasants, and beat them.

    Tam - is there any chance you are picking Vic because he is australian?

    Well, sure he is an Arab, but more or less Australian.

    By that rational, no Australians are Australians, simply a nice little gallimaufry of British criminals and aboriginies :D

    You made 1 post, and then another and another. Praising JMM and talking shit about Manny. Typical. :doh: Not sure what you thought this thread had to do with JMM when the title was "WHO IS THE MOST POWERFULL FIGHTER AROUND TODAY". Yeah that was obviously talking about Rafael MArquez not JMM.You have an unhealthy obsession :slap:

    There isn't any way to predict this.

    For instance, three of the most powerful welters of the last 15 years (ever?) turned into seemingly average punchers at junior middlweight:
    Quartey
    Jose Luis Lopez
    Mayorga

    Others apparently not brining it up...Hatton, Freitas (suarez prime suspect, though), mago, rosendo alvarez...

    IMO you almost have to exclude the HW from this thread. They can't carry their power to the next weight.

    With that said. I am pretty sure Miranda could take his power and be effective most likely up to LTHW. He's a bit of a one trick pony as well, but he could take his power up with him.

    a bit over-rated yes, but could he still bang with the LTHW's? I think so.
