    Looks like this fight will finally, based on this post by Janibek. I hope it happens. The division needs it.

    I had thought Adames was moving up to 168. Hope it comes through though.

    How likely is it for Crawford to snatch Lara’s MW belt and then take on the winner of this to pursue a 4th division undisputed crown?

    I realize he beats Lara but Janibek would be a very tall order.

    Great news. Finally getting to see Janibek take on other title holders and to show that he’s the top guy of 160.

    Maybe they can do Terence Crawford against Erislandy Lara with Janibek Alimkhanuly vs Carlos Adames as the co-main event to set up a match between the winners.

    GGG is the biggest payday for Crawford with the least risk

    Adames gets the Ngamissengue treatment.

    Money talks. And Adames has been fighting once a year for the last 4 years.

    If Turki is smart he gets Janibek unified and then makes a super fight woth Crawford.

    Arguably this is a step down. Adames lost to Teixeira, and should've lost to Terrell Gausha and Derevyanchenko. I might rate Denzel Bentley, Rob Brant and Anauel Ngamissengue over him.
