    Teofimo vs Haney should be next, no build up required. They dont need to fight bums, just each other. Winner gets a title shot.

    And why? I'd prefer a build up to this one, to make it a tad bit more significant.

    No chance, both untested, both are prospects, whats the point of matching them up now? Come back in 3-4 years time with that thread.

    Teofimo said he cant make 135lb much longer, dont want to miss this fight.

    Judging by how massive Haney has looked in his last two outings, I doubt he can much longer either.

    I dig what you are saying but in this day in age these guys just need to fight. Back before 2010 there were guys that were good that were on the downswing and these guy could look good against them like Erik Morales fought old Zaragoza, then he fought Kelly, Barrera, Chavez, Hernandez, and Pac in his and their prime. When he got old he was food for Maidana and Garcia and the boxing circle of life continued, Haney and Teofimo don't have that generation of guys thats there to make them look good like the last group did. They are gonna have to start from scratch.

    Sorry for the drawn out example. I know you know this but its really for the other guys to read.
