    There's still plenty of business for Bam at 115. There's always way less for people to say if you clean out your division, and guys like Puma Martinez and Kazuto Ioka would still be good scalps to claim. Since Gallo got the benefit of some judging to the better of Chocolatito in the trilogy, and the history he has with Bam, I don't really mind if he misses that one, but it would still be fire. I want to see Nakatani v Inoue more than I want to see Bam v Inoue. Inoue might be at 126 soon, while Bam just moved back to to 115, and it's a bit of a shame that Inoue skipped a division on his way up, or he'd be a 5 division champ now. A resume always looks better when you clean out all the credible opponents on the way up, especially when you've got guys that have a good chance of being HOFers that you haven't fought.

      Bam vacated in October 2022 in order to go to 112, nakatani had his first fight at 115 on November 2022. Revisionist history. If nakatani was his mandatory and he dropped the belt to fight a bum then ok, but be moved down and fought the #1 guy while nakatani didn't fight anyone near the top at 115 thus not generating much hype for the fight as nakatani toiled away on the outskirts

        Yeah, fighting shot inactive opponents all the time is a way to test yourself. Oh, and not forgetting weighing in hours before they should have against Sunny to make sure he could use his extra weight against him and got the smallest ring legally allowed to shut his movement down. Outside of this is just bums.

        I'm waiting for the day he actually fights a threat on even terms. I won't hold my breath though.

            Bam doesn't beat Nakatani, let alone Monster. They will move him cautiously like Boots.

              Bam is much more skill than Nakatani. The only advantage Nakatani is his size, he needs that advantage to win. Otherwise he can come down to 115.

                If that was the case, Bam should jump at the chance to fight Nakatani, but he's not.

                  Not much more you could ask of this guy. Way to finish. Whatever is next, I will be interested to see it.

                    I'm not dis*****g the crud that Boots is facing. But it's true for Bam as well.

                      P5tin is banned. Even if it's a part of a word that has nothing to do with him? Haha. This place is crazy.
