What about Cotto's belt?

Charlo vs. Lara would be a good fight, but I doubt it happens because of the past relation with Ronnie Shields, and Shields still trains Jemell's twin Brother, and Lara. More likely to see Lara vs. Hurd/Trout.

I'd like to see Charlo/Lubin vs. Hurd/Trout instead.

What about Cotto's belt?

It'll be vacant December 3rd.

Lara is the smallest man there!
Charlo already sweating!

Crazy this hasnt happened really. Haymon/PBC should have been looking to really make a statement with the divisions they own like 154 or 147. Show fans that this is how all divisions could be if we owned them. Instead it was just more of the same for most part, but with more inactivity.

Same should be done at Featherweight.
In my opinion the fights at Featherweight look better.

154 kind of thinned out. Several guys have either moved up or are moving up.

It'll be vacant December 3rd.

Buncha scrubs in the WBO rankings?

[Dr.Cool]

The wbo is gonna have some foreign scrub as a belt holder though. Could be hard to get whoever that is to fight a unification he will almost certainly lose.
