    Top Rank has just released Elvis Rodriquez after his first loss. This is a surprise but they must have no confidence in him. Also they parted ways with Jesse Hart and Carlos Castro undefeated 122lb fighter.

    Top Rank should have used Jesse Hart to test Edward Berlanga, but probably thought he was to much of a risk.

    He looked good at the beginning, quickly got exposed as a pretender. Not surprised this has happened.

    Best thing that could have happened to him. Top Rank is a sinking ship.

    good move. Rodriguez should get out of boxing now that he is young, all he can do is be a low level journeyman, hart is at the end of his career and was never a ticket seller, castro career has been stalled for years and he is a regional level fighter et best. neither was going to bring profit to top rank
