He needs to rematch Fidel Maldonado Jr! That was a bullcrap stoppage and everybody knows it.

You must really not like maldonado very much , bullsht stoppage? So you wanted maldonado to leave the ring on a stretcher?

Lmao, bullcrap stoppage? Maldonado Jr showed heart, but his legs were giving up on him each he got hit cleanly by Iman. It was a good stoppage. In fact if you listen to the interview after the fight, it sounds like Maldonado is starting to slur his words, its obvious the punches he has taken in his career are affecting him. You don't have to be a hardcore boxing fan to see that, its common sense.

When the hell are we getting Imam vs Spence?

edit: Imam is only at 140, damn. That would be a great fight.

it's not a realistic match up that can be made in the pros (for multiple reasons), but Spence did beat Imam a couple of times in the amateurs.
