What do you guys think about this fight? According to Arum and Verdejo's promoter all the parties are interested in making the fight for the Pacquiao PPV.
To be honest idk much about Flanagan but I'm guessing he'd be the favorite over the less experienced Verdejo.
Things heating up at 135, that is another Division really on the rise and has a lot of talent in it. All starting to fight each other with Linares vs Crolla, Easter vs Commey both are very good match ups in that Division
I'm really hoping for Dejan Zlaticanin vs Denis Shafikov next, that would be an amazing stylistic match up! But yes I'm liking 135. Too bad Barthelemy moved up.
I like Verdejo in this match up, I think he beats Flanagan ass on talent alone but why Chon Zepeda haven't gotten his rematch is the bigger question!
I've watched several of Flanagan's fight. The guy sucks. He struggled in his last two fights. Crolla sucks too.
Verdejo should beat Flanagan if he is what they (Top Rank and the other people hyping him up) think he is.
I'm not on the Verdejo bandwagon, but this is their Golden opportunity.
Flanagan would be the easiest title shot. Crolla is not available and I don't think Verdejo is even ranked in the top 15 by the WBA. Also, apparently Warren wants Flanagan to unify against Zlaticanin. Zlaticanin would obviously be a much tougher fight for Verdejo. I doubt Top Rank would want to put Felix in there against Dejan anytime soon. Their best bet is to get Flanagan before Dejan does.
Mikey Garcia is also looking at Flanagan. Top Rank should also try to get Flanagan before Mikey does.
Up until last month, he was ranked top 10 in WBC, WBO, and either IBF or WBA
one performance doesnt mean schit.
Terry would easily beat crolla. and this is way too early for verdejo who has looked equally unimpressive against lesser opposition.

I called for this fight after Flanagan's last fight.
Verdejo should beat him. Flanagan is so unimpressive. If Verdejo can't beat Flanagan then that's not very good news at all, obviously. Flanagan is the weakest Lightweight title holder in my opinion.
A win over Flanagan would be great for Verdejo. It would create a lot of buzz.
That's what Verdejo and Top Rank need right now.

I thought Verdejo was fighting Juan Diaz?
Apparently Diaz wants to go through with his next scheduled fight so he was no longer being considered as a opponent.
