    Argenis Mendes looking to jump to 135 after protesting?

    According to Barthelemy, who got stripped off his title after his win turned into no contest, he says Mendes is now willing to move 5 pounds north and not giving Barthelemy a well deserved rematch. That rumor has Rances angry and calls Mendes a coward, which to myself its clearly the right word to describe that move by the dominican.

      I knew something like this would happen, they should have just left the result as it was.

        I didn't wanna get ahead and question Mendez but looks like some of us were right.

        Sorry, I can't support Mendez if he goes thru with this.

          Mendes should think twice before doing it. Lots of asterisks would be alongside him for the rest of his career if he indeed does the move.

            Ho, man, if Mendez moves up without giving Barthelemy a rematch, what a bitch move that would be. I really hope this doesn't come to pass.

              This is more proof of how Cubans are being avoided by the rest fighters out there. They represent a plague that none wants to exterminate.

                I'll wait until we here from team Mendez but this wouldn't surprise me. Teddy was talking about how he was struggling with weight.

                  I'm still trying to understand this. He weighed in at 128 didn't he?

                    I say it, the protest was for the NC not the rematch, let see what happens next...
