I do think Omar could get wrecked if not properly matched.. The kid is exciting but sloppy and raw

I'm glad Figueroa is moving up to 140, I look forward to watching him fight the top guys in the division.

this is a fairly weak division, & guessing Estrada falls down to 4 or 5, the guy next after Linares, who should move 2 #1 is, & I can't believe in last months wbc ranking I saw, ranked #3 ( who did he beat 2 get that high?) is Henry Lundy...we'll c, but Linares alone will make the fight...

They're not guys that should be making him look like that though lol. Hell get beat like demarco vs broner. That's how bad his defense is

Unless or until then, he will bring it every time in the ring. It's not all about winning vs losing, that is for fanboys who only want to see their favorites win at all costs - it is about making TV friendly fights; that's what boxing needs. He does that in spades, and that's not debatable. Not every fighter has to rule the elite to be successful and have a following, as long as they give it their all.

What could we expect from another haymo fighter. Vacates the title when Linares was after him. Dude has enough body fat and can't make weight cause he eats a lot! How many defenses does he have and against what level fightwrs? Right, it's time to move up in weight.

Linares with his teeny, tiny, pointed chin gets flattened every time he fights a guy with a punch.
