[Sin City]

told u niccas he was having problems with the weight... but damn, he stil hasn't recovered?

[Mr. Ryan]

So they have a suspended boxer as their champion? Atleast someone is upholding the standards here.

Its too bad. So much potential and so much hype so young, only to take the entire year off. I wonder what the extent of the injuries an weight problem is, you would think he would be okay by now. It will be nice to see him at 130 though.

[Silencers]

I read he was back to hitting the heavy bag a few days ago, I guess he didn't like the way his shoulder felt.

Linares could fight at 135 or 140 if he wanted he was clearly 4 inches taller then you in that picture.

This is absolutely bull****. Larios shouldn't be boxing period. He is a few month away from a brain bleed and now the WBC in their infinite wisdom gives him a belt. They don't care about him. Jose Sulaiman should be removed this instant.
