Like I said... screw this. Miura/Uchiyama please

[Evil Abed]

That's a tough fight. Abner doesn't know how to take an easy fight.

If both Takashi came over we could see some amazing bouts in 2014. Especially if Uchiyama decided to move up after unifying. He's one of my current favorites and I'd love to see him get tested before he retires. At 34 it's unlikely to happen, but a guy can dream.

Miura is no joke, Abner is addicted to taking on the most difficult tasks possible.

Weird he dipped the rematch

mares was probably put down in sparring and his handlers said "hell no, this kids chin is cracked"

Donaire vs. Mares is starting to look like a pretty good match up now more than ever...

[TheGunslinger]

Good tough fight for Mares but why isn't the rematch happening I thought Abner wanted an immediate rematch (at first)?

Yes, that's why they decided to fight one of the most dangerous guy at 130 instead...
