Comments Thread For: Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez wants to headline pound-for-pound lists

[famicommander]

I dont know what Eddy does to people. Boots vs 13 fight Stanionis comes to mind. Stanionis had a title too. 11 fight Cofu vs the p4p wannabe isnt sporting, to me. There is better game out there but Eddy has to milk.

Cafu is the reigning WBO champion, the #3 TBRB ranked contender at 115, and he's coming off a win over four division world titlist Kosei Tanaka.

Martinez is #1 and he's unavailable since he just fought Ioka again, Estrada is #2 and Rodriguez already stopped him, Ioka is #4, and Cuadras is #5 and Rodriguez already stopped him too.

So who else is he supposed to fight? Do you just want him to sit around and wait 4-6 months for Martinez or Ioka? Do you want him to rematch Estrada or Cuadras? Inactive Chocolatito?

Cafu is the best available contender at 115 and a reigning world titlist.

Pound for pound is up for the imagination, because where each fighter is placed on it, is a matter of personal opinion. But you definitely have to put Bam somewhere on that list. Bam has IQ and skills that are beyond his years, timing, and destructive power. He's a complete fighter, and he's the kind of guy who can ruin a fighter for good.

Who will Bam fight next? The next best available contender? Nobody is better than 11 fight Cofu? Then what is all the hoorah about? If an 11 fight wonderboy is really a threat, if he really has a chance, then Bam isnt p4p material.

Cafu just beat a pound for pound fighter in Kosei Tanaka.

And after Cafu, Bam will probably try to get a unification with Martinez. They were supposed to fight but instead Martinez went after the more lucrative Ioka rematch.
