of all these I think Barrios and Jaurez has the potential to be the best war if Jaurez's chin holds up..

Cintron and Margarito looks good too....

love Margarito

I agree Barrios is a crazy lookin little dude, he's got the axe murderer type look to him, and he's got a real agressive fighting style, which plays perfectly in Juarez's style.  Should be a war. Cintron looked good in his last fight I hope Antonio brings his best  (I think Cintron broke his hand early in their first fight).  I'm also anxious to see how Gomez does against Cotto, I don't expect him to win, but he is a scrappy lil dude and should make a fight out of it while it lasts.  But first Pac-man vs. Marquez (the last mexican hope), Juan Manuel has probably the cleanest boxing ability when compared to Eric/Marco Antonio.  I look foward to this one and if Manny wins he really has no choice but to move up in weight to fight maybe the winner of Casamayor/Katsidis, or maybe Juan Diaz, Nate Cambell.  (im rootin for Marquez though)  HBO has a killer line up for the next couple months.

I honestly was'nt all that impressed with pacman last time out against marco...

I'm thinking JMM might just have his way Saturday night with him and maybe even stop him late
