    Using their mutual match against Quartey, it could be an interesting and exciting tussle?

    hated to see Claws not doing anything of note after his loss to Quartey.... what is the story behind the end of Espana's career?

    Eye trouble. Detached retina if I remember. He was also past 30, which at the time seemed old.
