Comments Thread For: Arum Has Big Plans For Walters, Beginning With Uchiyama

[tiliheels]

I meant deserve in the sense that the winner of Walters-Sosa was supposed to get the Uchiyama fight and Walters was robbed of his victory against Sosa.

how was the winner supposed to get htat fight bc arum said so? those guys are not ranked about javier fortuna..and they dont have the big win he has at 130...
walters lost his belt he didnt come into that division as champion still..and they he fought to a well called draw..that doesnt make him deserving of a lineal champion that has not had a mandatory challenge since 2013..
wba needs to do their job and give fortuna his mandatory challenge he's going to dismantale uchi

a bro..im not with all that casual ish..and negative hoping on fighters..i just think he missed weight bc he is too big like any other normal fan...but i do agree that sosa deserved his draw..bc no one set themselves apart in that fight

I don't think he was having that much trouble making the weight. He's even mentioned going back down to 126 for the right fight, which kind of supports my previous position. Just my opinion though.

HBO Commentators frequently talk of Walters' size, as a way to be apologetic for the way he chopped down Donaire. It put in the mind of the viewer that Walters is a huge featherweight. Fact is, he wasn't. He was in the middle of the pack if you look at the top 20 or so feathers. 5'7 is about the average in height, and Walters fight night weights weren't out of the norm either.

I thought Walters took it, but didn't have a problem with the draw.

i hope the wba makes the right call and makes that fight..walters didnt respect their title and didnt make weight he shouldnt go over ppl's head own earned their shot..in a recent q and a with ****** uchiyama said he is ready to face fortuna..he didnt speak of watlers..this was posted less than a day ago

It's a very good fight, and reasonable to make, I would think.
