Thinking about possible opponents for Cruz next. Hearn says he wants a top 15 guy. Thinking about guys who will be willing to fight a guy in his 3rd fight, I think Felix may be a good contender. Coming off a big win over Cully. I wouldn't be surprised if Hearn has options on him.
Felix makes sense, was thinking that might actually have been the opponent for this one. I think a 2024 of Felix, Abdullaev (decent rankings) and Fierro (WBO number 3 I think?) would be solid and may well get him towards a title shot in his sixth fight which would be pretty unprecedented in that division.
