I would like to see Felix fight a 10 round fight before taking on Salido, But if he wants to show the world he belongs among the elites, Salido, a fighter we ricans remember too well, would be the perect fight to take next year. Add to that Salido beat Lomachenko, the last guy to beat Verdejo in the AMs.
Would take the fight late next year.

Damn, it would be a great fight, only I'm worried it is too early for Verdejo to fight that caliber of fighter, we saw what happened with Lomachenko.

Good fight...
I think Verdejo is a future p4p guy but salido is a huge step up... A true pretender or contender fight for Felix

It would be too soon.
Verdejo could be the heir to the thrown for PR once Cotto retires.
You don't want to do anything to rush this kid. Especially against a rugged guy like Salido, who will doesn't give a ***** who you are, he'll give you a tough fight.

On the flip side timing might be on Felix's side for this bout, Salido is ring worn but he simply has too much experience
Too much too soon possible...
Look at what salido did to lomachenko...
Look at Dulorme vs abregu, Russell jr vs lomachenko...

I think it's to early for salido. I'd say at least two more fights. But if they are going to make it for 2015, hopefully they can make it the undercard for the cotto canelo fight
