    I’ve always admired his boxing style and fluidity, can he make a run at a trinket again? I thought he gave Loma a highly competitive fight and he was also ahead on my scorecard vs tank before getting stopped. He may be going through his second wind.

    Maybe, If he can outpoint Haney.
    I doubt it but would be a good fight.

    At 140 (with Taylor likely dropping all the belts soon) sure he could. All depends who he is in there with. Maybe the wbo title Jack Catteral is the #1 contender their and he'd have an excellent shot of winning that

    He has the ability to be a 3 weight champion I think, a clever & awkward fighter.. when 140 opens up he'll definitely be in the mix.. I can't see him beating Taylor, Ramirez or prograis though.. Postol would be an interesting fight as he's getting old now but again I'd still favour the Ukrainian .. failing that stick to LW & gun for the Haneys or even a Linares fight .. id watch that , old or not

    He's a very good, thoroughly professional fighter and I like what he brings to the ring. He sure schooled that kid Rodriquez last night. The best at 140 may be too much for him but whoever he fights will have to earn it.

    something about his style makes him difficult to face and he a good balanced comprehensive skill set. He lacks the explosiveness to beat the top dogs, I reluctantly agree with those sentiments. I’d like to see him get a shot again though.

    As soon as TTT isn't monopolizing the championship scene, maybe.

    He has good skills and can give anyone fits hes good enough to win another belt against the right guy.

    It still bothers me how stupid he fought against Tank though.

    He certainly has the skillset to win another belt. It would have to be the right opponent though.

    He was giving Tank a great fight then just got sloppy IMO.
    With his desire and skill set I think he can make some waves but not sure about grabbing the brass ring again TBH

    He can get a shot but he doesn't beat any of the top guys at 135 or 140.

    He’s be a better opponent for Tank than the bum Tank is fighting next. Not sure if he’s got the upside to beat every of at 140 but he’s a solid fighter. As stated, he got sloppy against Tank when they fought but I’d like to see them fight again if both are willing. He’s far from Taylor level but has skills to give anyone trouble.
