    I mustve not been clear, Ramirez vs Orozco is better than anything that tournament has to offer.

      I don't think the're scared, it's just business. They make more money if the're guy is fighting on ESPN. The 140 tournament isn't that strong anyway. Outside of Taylor and Prograis it's a wasteland. Ramirez vs Orozco should be a great fight.

        Yes, it's a great fight.. but WBSS.. wasteland? Played yourself completely, Relikh V Troyanovsky is an amazing fight, Troya got caught perfect vs Indongo, fine but how many times have we've seen guys get caught cold? That fight's gonna be something to watch.. Baranchyk? I believe Ryan Martin will suite better at 140, wish Hooker wasn't tied down with Saucedo, Top Rank held that belt from being in the Tourney, Yigit's an undefeated Euro Champ, rightfully deserved his spot, however, I'd have rather not seen Flanagan in..

        Prograis vs Relikh/ Troya & Taylor vs Baranchyk potentially in the semis is better than this fight, IMO

          I personally believe the potential of Prograis vs Relikh/Troya and Taylor vs Baranchyk in the semis are both better fights than this, let alone the potential of who makes it into the final..

          I'd rather have seen Orozco in the tournament as opposed to Flanagan.

          Top Rank shying away from the WBSS is truly whack, they'd make it even better for fans if they compromise the various business aspects and find the silver lining.. they blocked both the WBC and WBO from being in, whack

            Correct Orozco is better then Taylor who was mediocre in his last fight against a B level Postol coming off injury and only fighting once in last two years and it was in Taylor's home town...Taylor over rated for sure. Orozco as gii a Progtais who got hit with everything but the kitchen sink against a gift of a fighter for his homecoming a C level guy.

              Are you kidding Taylor is a hype job fought to a draw basically wirh Postol a B level rusty guy who never beat any top guy other then with a freak injury...Taylor may not be a top 10...Prograis looked poor in his last fight against what was supposed to be a gift...a C level fighter and yea he won no prob... but he got hit way too much...both Ramirez and Orozco beat the hell out of postol and Ramirez finishes Prograis opponent without all the damage Regis took...those two fight were embarrassing for guys who are supposed to be the best

                Taylor a hype job done to sell fights in another market...he doesn't go to finals in tournament I dont think. Prograis might take it, but hes going to have to fight guys much better then he has ever fought...More paper former chumps like imdongo om teo weeks notice...we will see if he is for real...his last fight lowered my opinion of him as a fighter. Om sure he is embarrassed by that performance against a c level gift of a fighter.

                  The real question is whether they'll decide to go back to the free ticket vouchers after the last fight did terrible at the box office, even before the cancellation. Decent fight, but another easy win for Ramirez. It's a bad situation with the cancellation of the last fight so it's forgivable. They should have made this fight to begin win!

                    Lol was almost a sell out...and no free tickets every single ticket is paid for not to mention the high dollar amount charged for floor sets, VIP boxes ect....get some facts man.

                    There's a reason why Top Rank calls Savemart center their favorite venue, they make more on a Ramirez fight then just about any other. Ramirez has more endorsements and sponsors then any fighter in the world.

                      I agree. This is a really good matchup and the kind of fight I was looking forwRd to seeing when top rank and espn hooked up.
