    Why not Barthelemy or Zlat? Fighters that are with Haymon. He's probably looking at the easiest path to a title.

      Zlat bwahahahaha! hes probably the easiest but generates less money than Flanagan...that guy should be fighting at 130 hes 5'4 Terry Flanagan is 5'9...all the top guys at 135 have about 4 inches on him..whats the hype all about? the KOs?

          Very excited to see him in the ring again. He was one of my favorite young fighters. Still young with an outstanding brother to train him

            Oh wow, I thought he was going to 140lbs. At 135 a Lomochenko fight could happen.

              Not sure why he plans to punish himself making 135 when he has a never fought below 139 and that was 5 or 6 years ago.
              There's something at 140 and 47 their not interested in right now.
              As you get older you can't return to weights you used to make when you were in your younger 20's.
              If he needs to be at 135+3 just set the catch weight and get some 10 rounders under his belt, nothing wrong with that. To start out at 135 is not a wise plan at age 28 after missing so much time you don't want to be weak in training or the fight!

                Oops. Somebody mentioned Flanagan as a stepping stone. I wonder why?

                  Nice, better late then never. Can't let all that potential go to waste.

                    Better hope Golden Boy has room for you dude. Haymon, Fraud Pedcheater, Roc Nation....they all know how to waste money but know nothing about building a star. Go for the PROVEN entity Golden Boy Promotions.
