    Great fights to be made at WW.

    Maidana's in that mix, Matthyse maybe?
    Why do the same people always willfully ignore the fact that Top Rank refuses to do business outside of their shop, even after "the end of the Cold War"? Sadam Ali has been sitting as the #1 WBO challenger for some time now, quietly sat as Top Rank chose to go with Bradley-Vargas (Vargas having to come up weight to make that fight), and will likely again wait as Top Rank tries to put on Bradley-Rios.

    There's a clear divide in the sport, and people seem unwilling to call names for whatever reason.

      Forget this silly nonsense. Haymon can't even bring himself into making Thurman vs Khan/Brook/Porter/Garcia/etc. in his own stable, let alone work with TR fighters.

      You're clearly a Haymon/TBE worshipper. Your posts are useless. Go and find something else to do. We've had enough of this garbage.

        Why are they all waiting ?

        Not one top welterweight fight happened heading toward September.
        Probably cuz they were hoping Mayweather would call them. When you got two cash cows in a division like Floyd & Manny it can definitely stop that 2nd tier of cats from fighting in hopes of getting the call or until they get some heads up that a big fight will get them the cash cow.

                  ya im so tired of these fighters hiding behind al hes not the one to blame its the fighters. if al made porter broner and santa cruz mares hell make any fight the fighters want period. the reality is thurman is the one who has yet to have a big fight
