Jesse is one of THE best fighters in many years. So few fighters want to fight all top fighters, no exceptions, and he is one of them. He is a gift to this sport.

If only all the heavier weight classes has this kind of excitement and anticatapation of who is going to win and who will step up next and all the talk mattered like these four fighters and there weight class match ups..........used to be that way on all weight levels................Japanese fighters are the new Mexican Fighters.........................

[IronDanHamza]

Bam is exactly what a fighter is supposed to be.

Racks up titles, moves up, constantly fights Top 5 ranked opponents.

[STREET CLEANER]

Bam is one of the best out there. He is badly in need of a rival so more take notice.

I can't fault the guy but damn I wish these baby weights still had some great fighters in to test him so we could get an actual real measure of how good/great he is. His better wins have aged like milk.

I imagine it'll be sadly a case of him eventually losing because he moved up too much in search of a worthy competitor.

Now way. Nakatani lost the Mexican from TJ.

Name Japanese at the level of
Bam Rodriguez
David Benavidez
Vergil Ortiz
Canelo
Zurdo Ramirez Unifiend Cruiserweight
Navarette IBF and WBO, 3 Division Champ


Fundora, Espinoza, Murutalla.

All Japan has is Inueo.

[BlackRobb]

It's clear that Robert Garcia would rather leave Monster alone.

The same reason Inuoe doesn't Move up to 126 to face Espinoza is the same reason Bam doesn't move up 7 Pounds to face Inuoe.
