    juarez will forever be getting title shots and hbo dates. I'd love to see JML vs Juarez at 126 lbs.

      I'd like to see Rocky fight Gamboa

      but at 130, after Gamboa moves out of the featherweight division.

      *shame Juanma and Gamboa could fight soon, don't get me wrong it would be a great match up .. but why rush it?

      Juanma's gonna go from 122 to a Gamboa fight?

      why not wait it out a bit more?

      then again too risky, as one could lose in the meantime.

        High end, he is a quality fighter just not the very best. I bet he gets a bunch more shots though aslong as he can be a legit fighter.

        At 126-130 who is good competition that is not the best, that is why Rocky will get fights for a while.

          I agree, though personally don't believe that it's truly Arum's plan. I think he's using it as bait to secure JuanMa a few more HBO dates, without actually having them dictate who he has to fight.

          We'll see a doubleheader... and then Arum will pull some bull**** about HBO being slave drivers, threaten to take his business to Showtime... and in the end wind up with JuanMa right back where he started - headlining TR"s in-house PPVs.

          I see Arum eventually feeding Luevano to either JuanMa or Gamboa before an actual head-on collision occurs (if ever).
