    Before even thinking about fighting Linares or Barth. There's level to this, and both those guys are far above Flanagan and Croalla.

    **** off Yank.

    Linares struggled badly with a shot to **** Mitchell. Both Brits beat him.

    Linares isn't anything special, the current version of Linares would lose to both Crolla and Flanagan.

    Pretty much. Another ten seconds and the fight would have gone to the scorecards, where Mitchell was ahead. Take nothing away from Linares though, he's the #1 at LW until someone proves otherwise. But I wouldn't say he's levels above Crolla and/or Flanagan.

    Linares is a beast, don't know what you guys are smoking. Just has glassy skin, and a mediocre chin, but terry feathers flanagan won't be able to do anything, Flanagan just lost like 4-5 rounds against some bum in the UK LOL. Linares will carve him up, he's far mroe skilled. Guess you guys are still butthurt Linares retired Mitchell LMFAO, Mitchell was getting back to form, than Linares ended all that.

    I've been a Linares fan for years. Linares will school Flanagan, Flanagan is overrated as fk. He beats Victor Ortiz's boyfriend and now he's on Linares level? Gtfo.

    There's no way of knowing, is there? Hearn said it wasn't much less than what Fish Eyes offered for the Flanagan fight and Crolla himself seems pleased, so that's all that matters really. I do agree that Crolla/Flanagan can be made into a much bigger fight than £500k a piece. Especially when you consider the couple of million that Frampton got and Quigg not far behind for their fight.

    I think if it haooened it would end in a controversial draw...everyone's a winner and they both keep their belts...easy money

    For me Turbo is the number 1 in the division, but the division is in good shape, about 6 guys in the same type of position and if they face off like Crolla and Barrosso it'll be for an interesting year or so. Unfortunately in modern boxing though that rarely happens.
