So what happens to Milan's title shot?

I was confused when I seen that Mendoza was going to fight Melindo in March because I've known that he was going to fight on January 10th in Tijuana for a while now, .

Mendoza last fought in September so if he waited until March to fight he'd be inactive for 6 months already. Who knows, maybe Mendoza will still be ready to go on March 28th after this tuneup. If not I'm pretty sure Mendoza vs. Melindo is going to happen still, just at later date maybe.

Damn it bro, Mendoza's team needs to get their act together. Inactivity at the lower weights is not good at all. Hope he does fight a tune up this month and jumps straight into the Milan fight. I have El Metodico earning his first world title Good fight nonetheless and we shouldn't be missing it over this bull... I wonder what's going on behind closed doors in his camp.

What a joke. Fuentes is the third rate tomato can that was blasted out in one round by Johnriel Casimero last May and has never beaten a top fifty opponent.
