    Felix Alvarado and Randy Petalcorin will likely fight for the vacant strap, and that's a damn good fight. :chuck:

    Interesting to see Alvarado recover from his back to back losses years ago. Surprised Hekkie ditched it.

    Shame Buddy doesn't defend, but that's a good fight indeed.

    I believe a Budler vs Kyoguchi fight can happen later during the year. :chuck:

    it's pathetic that these world class fighters in the lower divisions are tossed peanuts for their fight purses..

    I read that Hekkie was set to make only 25,000 in that defense. So it's like an Mthalane situation. I don't blame him in this case.

    The purse bid to face Alvarado was only 25,000. At his age, Budler probably wants to cash out.

    Na, those whole purse was 25,000. Hekkie would have had to split it.

    It wouldn't even be cashing out to want to earn more than that coming off his hot win and having the credentials he does.
