      My heart sunk in at the thought of a rematch.

        These are all great action-pack fights. It'd be a great card, PPV worthy card.
        i actually wouldn't mind watching the matrirosyan- lara rematch or the bradley- alexander rematch

          One of the first quotes Ishe put out after he won the title was that he wanted to defend his title against fighters that have come up the hard way like him and he mentioned Molina and Rosado.

          If Mayweather Promotions has options on Molina it's because it was a voluntary defense. Regardless of what the Ali Act states, no educated management would accept options on their fighter when they're the mandatory challenger for a title.

            I think the key word is "REQUIRE" and "REQUIREMENT" are the key words here.

                Yeah, I don't think Molina was the mandatory. So no Ali Act violation.

                  He was. The Molina-Spinks was the title eliminator.

                    I definitely won't be a dumb-ass and sit through it a second time.

                      Two road warriors who finally got the prize. I'd pay to see them fight out of respect that they representing all the other fighters who fight on and face anyone.
