    Sunny Edwards is now clearly second-tier after getting crushed by a still-improving Bam.

      He's still the best guy in the division now that Bam moved on. Losing to a guy who's almost guaranteed a first ballot HOF doesn't make him second tier.

        Ehhhh, you might be right.
        I had a closer look at the flyweight rankings.

          Not to mention his last fight he was right back to essentially completely shutting out a former 108lb world champion. Even with his lack of power, he's still formidable. I think if he actually had power, or even if he weren't in the Bam era, he'd be looking at a very long title reign.

            Lol the best guy in the division isn't sunny. It's WBA champion Akui, who's a ruthless power puncher. Bam should've fought akui, instead of pillow fisted sunny.

              Sunny is one of those guys that tangles with monsters unarmed. He can't bust a paper bag, but will trade with the best. His annoying character aside, he has huebos.

                I see that.
                Not unlike a flyweight version of Paulie Malignaggi.

                  Sunny obviously came up well short against bam but I would expect him to have way too much for galal
