    Bam gotta wait until Chocolatito becomes 40. Chocolatito is still too much for him.

      i said the same thing when people wanted 40 year old Manny to take on Bud & Spence.

      The veterans don’t need to get the hell beat out of them just so the next guy can become king. Let the new guys make their path to the top. Beating the shell of king should not make you the king in my humble opinion

        Estrada vs Bam is the passing of the torch fight considering Estrada won the trilogy and holds the belt that Bam relinquished.

        At least Manny held a title when he was gonna fight Errol.

          Why do they always call him "Mr. Honda?"

          You'll rarely see anyone refer to Mr. Arum or Mr. Hearn or Mr. De La Hoya or Mr. DiBella...

              Or better yet, does Mr. Honda call Bam, Jesse San like Mr. Miyagi did to Daniel?..

                Well, Choco will at least go down swinging. Srisaket didn't really and neither did Cuadras. So that's still an open question.

                    I'd rather see Bam unify 112 while he can still make that class. 115 is for his bro, as he says. He'll come up if his bro can't handle Estrada and Junto. He's only 22, and his last three fights were title fights against top competition, and he's shaping up to have another two or three title fights next year. You all need to relax. He's one of the few fighters who's actually making a ton of good fights, and before the Cuadras fight, he was two weight classes lower and hadn't even fought for a regional title.

                    Why don't you go bother Jermall Charlo, Munguía, Andrade, Crawford, Spence, etc.
