who`s the best lightweight in the world now?

[TheMacMagician]

As I don't like any of the other fighters on the list, and seen as Marquez hasn't been beaten at lightweight and also the possibility that he'll fight at lightweight again next, i'm sticking with Marquez for sure until he says he won't be fighting at lightweight.

Surprised you didn't have Miguel Vazquez, Miguel Acosta or even Katsidis on your list.

Lightweight has really fallen apart, but there is a lot of young talent coming in to fill the void.

...guzman is no where near a lightweight.

Dont mean to post this with any distaste but was just wondering who`s peoples take on the now number 1 lightweight following valeros demise

Cant really consider marquez consider his last fight was at 147 and all the talk of his return appears to suggest he`ll fight at 140.

I'd say Juan Manuel Marquez is the best lightweight in the world just like he was before Valero killed his wife and himself.
