    I kind of like Rolly, but I think even this older Version of Linares would beat him. I think it's a fight that can get made, If Garcia-Rolly doesn't.

    Doesn't Rollie have a legit belt? It's a good fight but don't think Linares deserves a title shot.

    Linares is worn down but he might still win. Just look at Rolly's last fight.

    Rolly isn't good Linares can be chinny at times but he's probably still good enough to outbox rolly

    Rolly is not interested as you can see in the video. Most likely because it is a lose lose situation for him. If he loses he is screwed and like others have said Linares is probably still capable of beating him. But even if Rolly wins most in boxing would be like so what Linares is old and shot.

    Yeah bro, i like Rolly but he telegraphs his shots too much and Linares still has very good counter punching ability. If Rolly cant score a KO Linares will beat him.

    It could definitely be a possibility.

    I have always liked Linares but he belongs nowhere a title shot, especially at 140. Then again... Neither did Romero...

    Linares is shot to pieces and has lost three fights in a row. Most recently he lost to a journeyman, retirement type fight. He needs to be gone.

    As a fan of Linares I don't want to see this fight. Linares is shot and I really cant stand the prospect of Rolly having a name like Linares on his record. Its like Jason Gavern having James Toney on his record.

    Rolly's a funny dude.

    Let's get this press conference going with Ohara Davies, wouldn't even need to see the fight....just the pressers would be enough.

    Rolly absolutely sucks. Even a shot and war torn Linares would be too much for him.
