WBA lightweight titlist Jorge Linares (43-3, 27 KOs) has beaten top British talent in his last three outings. Linares traveled to the UK to secure back to back decision victories over Manchester star Anthony Crolla, and then last month he edged Olympic gold medal winner Luke Campbell at the Forum in Los Angeles.

Useless fight. Flanagan will be totally outclassed and possibly knocked out.

Linares can't hide out in the UK forever. At some point he'll have to fight Mikey and take his loss like a man.

Mikey might as well start looking for an opponent, Linares ain't gonna happen without signing to GBP! I say Tank Davis @ 135, Omar Figueroa Jr. @ 140, or Danny Garcia @ 147, would be excellent fights for Mikey! Stay away from Robert Easter Jr.! I think he's all wrong for Mikey, and no money in it!

Flanagan should still fight Crolla.

Then take his beat down by Linares

I think it's fair to say he has options lol there are others out there as well

Linares has got used to fighting Euro fighters... GB is promoting this guy but can't get him to fight in the US. Yes his last fight was in the US but he's been fighting more on UK shows promoted by someone else other than GB. Linares don't want to face any other fighters. Beltran, Fortuna, Easter, Commey, Davis and Mikey are all fights that could be made here but he won't take those fights.

He doesn't fight in the US because he can't draw. Last fight against Campbell did only 106k at the gate with only 2.5k tickets sold.

Linares taking down the whole British empire
