    I would like to see him at 154 fight Daniel Santos and win the WBO title. Then he should fight Winky Wright. I feel his right hand would be strong enough to make Winky back up. His whole future should be at 154, I feel he could dominate there the way he should've dominated at 147.

        The Ring had begun rating him at 154, and that's where he was scheduled to fight T. Reid, but in the last couple of issues, I've niticed him rated at 147 again. Still, havn't heard who or when he plans on fighting again.

          He was supposed to fight on the Klitscho/Williams undercard, but why he isn't on it now is beyond me.

            I think it would be a good match up. A lot of people like to dismiss Vernon since he lost to Mayorga but he is a well schooled fighter with good skills and has power in the right hand. He could hurt Winky if he gets careless.
