AJ's trainer hinted that Ramirez is moving up to 147 and fighting Benn in the UK next

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
He was sluggish last time at 175...it's not his weight class. He should of stopped ducking Benavidez..wouldn't of needed a disguised cherry pick.
I didn't say shyt about a weight class.. He gassed early period.. he hadn't been this sluggish since the 1st ggg fight.. Nobody is ducking Benavidez other than Jermall Crawford.

honestly i have no idea what taylor is doing..you say you want to stay at 140 but then you give up another belt

I don’t understand your logic. Why hold on to the belt and continue paying sanctioning fees? Personally if I won all 4 titles, if I intend to stay in that weight class, I would drop them all and just keep 1.

Once you acquire all of the belts, there is no need to hold them all. He’s the man in the division.

A clever thing you can do is slowly drop the titles. What I mean by that is keep the titles with soft mandatories, and once you have to fight someone who is really nice, just drop that title, and just keep doing that until your left with 1 title. Just go with the organization you’re most comfortable with for the title you want to keep. This is what Josh Taylor may be doing. It is a form of cherry picking that goes unnoticed.

well if im up early (because i cant sleep lol)..ill catch this fight...those aussie cards are a chore to get through :heh:
:sadcam: Yeah, it's embarrassing at times.

The talent pool here is sloppy.

The pro rank circuit here is really pro/am if we are honest.

Some good fighters here and there, but unfortunately there's not enough top liners sparring other top liners, consistently enough to have a legitimate trickle down effect.
