Comments Thread For: Hearn calls Jesse Bam Rodriguez-Fernando Martinez one of the best fights in boxing

Why you picking on old man Choco ???
Love the Choco but his time has come

I know, but ... it would be like the official changing of the guard.

If anything I'd prefer if they did it the other way around. Bam v Ioka, Martinez can try to make it past Choc. If he can, he'll have demonstrated he's at that level, and Bam can get another aging legend on his resume before he retires.

I get what you're saying. Good point. I don't mind that set up either.

It's certainly the best fight in the division, barring Bam v Chocolatito perhaps. IBF is vacant, and who knows what Cafu is going to do, coming off his split decision win over Kosei Tanaka.

Cafu vs Chocolatito apparently is a matter of finishing contract and signing, and purse bid foi IBF rematch for vacant belt was won by MP Promotion and will be held somewhere in Mexico this spring.

Sucks for Ioka who seems like he's dateless again.

I think Bam would like to get Undisputed, as it does enhance people's view of someone and it will drive his profile. Fully supportive of cleaning up the division before moving up. He is still so young and will likely max out at Featherweight or so, so should not rush it.

Thats a competitive fight
Puma is better than Estrada, and not easy to hit

will be a good challenge for Bam

Maybe Bam can fight Ioka if Puma won't unify.
