All a boxer has to do is hop a weight class. They're so close.

There's another fight that I'd like to see, Russell vs Ryan Garcia.

Unfortunately probably won't happen. Gary is excellent, hard to beat and flying under the radar.

Antuanne is a solid fighter I thought the Postol stoppage was early but it was never in doubt that he was going to win regardless. I want to see Russell vs Prograis.

Russell vs Prograis would be good.

Love the idea, but he clearly doesn't understand that there are no top 140 fighters with the PBC. Good luck fighting any of the top guys, let alone "cleaning out" the division.

And he appears to have the talent to do just that, will be intersting to see if and how he does it.

I like his style a lot.
Can't wait to see his next fight.

140 is a nice division with this guy gaining experience. Cryan G and Teo lopez are there.

Russell vs Prograis would be good.

Prograis would probably feel insulted by fighting guys like Russell, Brandun Lee, and Shojahon Ergashev! He thinks he should be getting a title shot ASAP! I don't know what his problem is? I would love to see him fight Ergashev NOW! Neither have a fight scheduled, and both need a big return fight, to remind us of their talents!
