    Tito Trinidad(formidable)
    Fernando Vargas(shot but still bigger and stronger and more skilled)
    Sugar Shane Mosley(After a razor thin loss to Cotto)

    The man deserves a break in top competition and has the right to beat up contenders and lower tier champs before another big fight against Forrest perhaps???
    Agreed, Mayorga has earned that journeyman/impressive KO/comeback victory.

      He has earned to fight a complete bum on the undercard of ESPN2 Wed. night fights.

          Mayorga should just KO the winner of Bunema vs Martinez.

            Yeah it would. But it would never happen like that, they should just take the bum and let Mayorga fight him. You know it would get picked up, probably on Showtime.

              if Zab Judah's fought before on Friday Night Fights, why not Mayorga?

              or they could throw Mayorga at Sergio Mora .. with the winner taking on Forrest.

              **made that up all on my own, lol. Mora got whooped on by Forrest and doesn't really deserve rematch (what did Sergio say at the post fight press conference?)

              and well Mayorga's history with Forrest is well documented.

              so why not have Mayorga vs Mora? (once Mayo gets that 30th w of course.)

                Mayorga wants to piece of the Latin Snake Mora. Remember, Mora beat Forrest.

                  After all that draining I doubt Mora is coming back to 154

                    I personally think Mayorga should clean out JR Middleweight. The division is dead, him and Forrest are the biggest stars and he deserves to add another championship and test guys like Phillips and Santos.

                    He SHOULDNT fight above his weight nor below, that includes a Tito rematch at 170 which would be completely pointless, any fight at 147 or above 154.

                    To be hated on so much the man has fought nothin but top tier competition so he should beat down some 154 contenders and become 154 champ hell maybe even unify the division
                    Forrest-Mayorga III. Showtime will buy it, the WBC will sanction it, and Forrest has to feel confident he can win the third match. And it's probably the most money Mayo can get right now, so why wouldn't he take it? And he's maybe the top profile guy that Vernon can schedule at 154 unless a welterweight comes up in weight...

                    Or a Spinks rematch could be even more money for Ricardo, especially if it landed in St. Louis...

                      Mayorga would have been an all time great back in the Lamotta/Robinson era.
