    Verdejo should beat Flanagan if he is what they (Top Rank and the other people hyping him up) think he is.
    I'm not on the Verdejo bandwagon, but this is their Golden opportunity.
    Flanagan would be the easiest title shot. Crolla is not available and I don't think Verdejo is even ranked in the top 15 by the WBA. Also, apparently Warren wants Flanagan to unify against Zlaticanin. Zlaticanin would obviously be a much tougher fight for Verdejo. I doubt Top Rank would want to put Felix in there against Dejan anytime soon. Their best bet is to get Flanagan before Dejan does.
    Mikey Garcia is also looking at Flanagan. Top Rank should also try to get Flanagan before Mikey does.
    Up until last month, he was ranked top 10 in WBC, WBO, and either IBF or WBA

        Things heating up at 135, that is another Division really on the rise and has a lot of talent in it. All starting to fight each other with Linares vs Crolla, Easter vs Commey both are very good match ups in that Division

        I'm really hoping for Dejan Zlaticanin vs Denis Shafikov next, that would be an amazing stylistic match up! But yes I'm liking 135. Too bad Barthelemy moved up.

        I like Verdejo in this match up, I think he beats Flanagan ass on talent alone but why Chon Zepeda haven't gotten his rematch is the bigger question!

          Verdejo wins IMO.

              This first real step up for Verdejo. It's been 4 years since he turned pro. No more kid gloves.
