    After 18 months out after being shot, he fights Matthew Strode 24-5, this weekend on the Ancajas undercard.

    Good addition to the WW division if he can get back to where he was.

    Crawford will need some guys who Arum can make fights with in house of ESPN and Benavidez could be a legitimate one

    Pretty good fighter, but he lost to Mauricio Herrera. I remember when top rank first signed him he was extremely hyped. He was 17 years old and sparring with Pac. I dont think he could compete with the very top fighters at 147.
