      Good point to note there about fights being "officially announced" weeks, sometimes months, after all parties concerned knew it was on.

        He brought up great points about drug testing. Hopefully it doesn't limit the people Jrock will fight, and if it does that shows you who is out there juicing.

          I 110% agree with his last point... that was a hell of a fight!! That was a skillful war and the best fight of the year so far for me. Both guys showed a lot of heart and determination

            Hurd shouldn't have waited til he lost to get a new trainer he should have done it after the trout fight.

            He's tied with Munguia for worst defense at 154. Both of them are food if they move up to 160

              How many times do we have to hear this guy talk about a fight that happened two months ago? LOL.

                  It only happened two months ago. And he's waiting for the rematch of that fight to be announced next.

                  It's normal that writers are going to be asking him about Hurd.

                    "Breadman" on point as usual! Let's see how it goes with the 90 days testing before fights! Brilliant idea! Can Hurd learn defense at this point in his career? Very interested to see how that works out! Maybe he just needs to move up to 160, so he doesn't have to drain himself?
