    Fair enough, think it's clear to all that Teo is king for now though there are questions there still. Remains to be seen if these guys will fight anytime soon or what so our seemingly interminable speculation can finally come to a close on some of these matchups.

    You know what I really think the same too at this point. Probably why Teofimo has his eyes on fighting the winner of Taylor Ramirez which would be a boss move, hell that'd be p4p #1 kinda stuff right there to me. These guys are all talk until it comes to the big time then they seem to cool down when they realise they can't handle the heat in the kitchen and Teo is just cooking away waiting for em. Haney in particular needs to fight him, hate him saying he's a barrier to undisputed.

    A 5* buffet every single night, plus a brown paper envelope every time he opens his mouth and puts on a performance like it in the public arena...

    It truly was something. I'm sitting here laughing just thinking about it again.

    With that logic, every boxer would celebrate like that after his biggest win...

    Did David Price celebrate like that after knocking out Audley Harrison?

    Yup, first that mouth of his annoyed me but he got my respect after the Nakatani fight because I knew he was in with a live dog who'd give him trouble having looked into Nakatani (dominated the Asian/Pacific scene at lightweight for years). He pulled through in a tough fight and was incredibly honest with himself afterwards, I liked that he wanted to be so much better. Saw how much he'll strive to improve, he's got a demon in him gnawing away at his sense of self worth in a good way, he needs to feed that beast by becoming the best.

    We'll probably find out soon enough. I remember people bashing Oscar the same way when he started. And Oscar got dropped early on. People wondered about his chin. But he ended up being pretty great. Too early to tell with Garcia. I feel like his chin is going to betray him, though.
