    Why though? It'd still be a cheap route to it. **** titles. All of them, including the ring for the most part.

    Why isn't it Maidana fighting for a world title?

    I don't know. I guess I just want to see him have more titles :nut.

    I agree, **** titles, but they bring bragging rights and I would like to see him be the undisputed guy at 140, which we haven't seen since the Kostya Tzyu time.

    Khan can win all the titles he wants but in historical terms he's still not world champion

    how can a guy coming of a loss go straight into a world title fight??

    i was at the Maidana vs Morales fight. Maidana basically took him lightly.

    I can't believe people think Morales beat Maidana, Morales performed much better than expected but still lost 8-4 in rounds, 7-5 if you are being generous.

    Morales hasn't earned at 140 title shot.

    No doubt about it. But I prefer Khan pick up the belts than Bradley hold them hostage.

    Morales vs Barrios can't be the best available 140 fight.

    EM has got some nice rankings in the WBC and The Ring off of a loss.
