    yeah, good points, it's hard to blame kali for taking the money, but it's hard to believe there's not a live oponent out there looking for some money. bates has proved time and again that he isn't even c class.

    I think maybe the Croat chickened out becuase there would be no fight otherwise.

    I think you are right.

    Meehan has been out of the mainstream spotlight ever since he was thrashed by Rahman, and noone hears of him at all, anymore, and still yet, he's still a pretty good top 20-30 ish fighter. So I also think many probably refuse to fight a fairly big risk/no reward fighter like Meehan.
