Comments Thread For: Flanagan Could See Possible Unification if Crolla Wins

The WBA's idea of matching the winner with Derry Mathews does appear to be a be odd. Should it not be Richer Abril? that guy apparently just doesn't feel like fighting any more in lieu of zepeda, flanagan should be forced to face the next mandatory in line to legitimise his belt. i think that means diego magdaleno

Flanagan is not a legit Champ. Not his fault, but he owes a re-match to Zepeda first. It's one of those situations where nobody is to blame, but Flanagan needs to do the 'right thing'. Which, in reality means he will do exactly the opposite. Thats true but lets remember that nobody in the UK gave Flanagan no favors coming up and was avoided. Zepeda is going to have to sit out a while with recovery and physio work and will have 1 or 2 warm ups before he even challenges a top 10 fighter because if that shoulder pops out again with a immediate rematch his career is in ruins.

Flanagan should give Zepeda a rematch.

I thought the WBA ordered the winner of Perez/Crolla to fight Derry Mathews next. Yes i thought so too. Mitchell and Flanagan seem to be hoping for the Crolla fight..but as far as i'm aware the winner of Crolla's fight will have to face Matthews.
