    Xander Zayas keeps getting underrated thats why he keeps dominating everyone that appears in front of him and became unified champion when people think he's the weak link. The weak link is actually Fundora. Fundora would lose to at least 2 of his opponents. There is a reason Fundora dropped his belt to Xander, he wouldn't be able to find Zayas in the ring.

    He'd have schooled Murtazaliev, dude is a whole level above Josh Kelly. I always said Boots biggest threat at 154 is Xander not Vergil, Xander is more skilled than Karen Chukhadzhian. The footwork and iq of Zayas will continue to be overlooked.

    In this era of belt proliferation, this doesn't mean as much as it once did.

    It's crazy to think that Oscar's two best guys in Ortiz and Ryan Garcia have not won world titles.
    Ortiz is easily one of the best guys at 154
