    AB has been broke. A win over Blair isn't likely to change THAT much.

      If Ryan finds himself fighting AB hes fumbled the bag & lost the script.

        I haven't seen odds on this, but if Blair is the dog, I don't think he should be. And I expect a lot of folks to throw a few dollars on him if he is.

        A lot of folks got nostalgic feelings about AB is the thing in play here. I dig AB as a person & think he has the among the best senses of humor among boxers, but its not 2016 anymore.

          He needs a fight to see how 147 feels, and if AB looks good in a victory over Blair Cobbs, he can help sell the fight, and he won't ask for as much as say, Teofimo Lopez.

              I think there are much better opportunities for Ryan than AB. Its probably a dream fight for this version of AB tho.

              I'm not super confident AB gets by Blair either & if he does I don't expect him to look good doing it. It'll probably be a nail biter thats close if he wins.

                Oh no doubt! Thus the disclaimer, “If AB..”

                  TBH, Devin should be rooting for AB! He knows he’s outgrown 140, so AB would be a good comeback, but it all depends on how AB looks. Even Blair Cobbs would be a good look. Maybe Mario Barrios?

                    Devin vs AB after Sandor makes more sense. Devin needs a couple softer touches & AB does have some name value still. Blair aint bad either. Fighting the winner makes sense.

                      I don't think he should fight at 140 anymore! He's killing himself to make weight, and it's affecting his performance, even more than the Ostarine in Ryan's system! After NY changes the decision to NC, I think he needs to move to 147!
