    Beltran beating Flanagan for a belt would be sweet. He was shafted in his fight against Ricky Burns in Glasgow.

      I haven't read any new articles on the results on his case -- but I hope my assumptions are wrong and that hes done enough to win his legal status in America.

        This is Beltran's last chance.

          He will not beat Flanagan. Euro bum? You are talking like this is an easy fight. Beltran is a good fighter but not that good.

            Terry Flanagan got beat up and bloodied by 41-42 year old impoverished African Mzonke Fana, struggled with **** Cruz, and lost ( unofficially ) to Petr Petrov : he really shouldn't be champion right now - he sucks!

              Top Rank needs to hit the reset button with Verdejo. Get him healthy and have him fight a decent fighter by years end.

              Then at the beginning of 2018 get him in a title eliminator fight. Right now the 135 pound division is tough.

              Top Rank should take a wait and see approach to see whos going to move up in weight. Be Patient

                  The WBO didn't lose their patience, Top Rank did.

                  The WBO wouldn't just drop a Top Rank prospect in their rankings (a Puerto Rican prospect to boot) without their string pulling. TR just switched one of their fighters for the other.

                    But Hughie "The Nandrolene Assassin" Fury held a top spot after knocking over a few bowling alley employees and pulling out of a fight just do he could get it moved to his hometown.

                      If he beats Flanagan, expect to see Loma move up to 135 to fight Beltran.
                      I’d spit on that fight...
