    Think about it, Duran beat Barkley at 37, everyone would’ve thought he was way too small and old, that Barkley would destroy him, at the end of the day, Barkley had brutally stopped Hearns who destroyed Duran, why would Duran stand a chance against Barkley? But he did, if Roman Gonzalez did it, he’d make history and it’d be one of the greatest wins in the history of the sport, and he hasn’t looked too bad in more recent fights.
    Who else wouldn’t mind mind seeing it as long as he’s still 37-38?

    Dyran vs special because noone thought he'd do it. Not because he's encouraged

    No i want to see Bam move up and get brutally KO'd by the future p4p #1 at 118. Stop fighting these undersized 40 year olds.

    Me. I want him to beat everybody whose anybody. Leave no doubt that there is nobody in the world under 120 lbs who can hang with him. Plus, it could be Chocos retirement fund, cause nobody else will bring him that type of money.

    No, Roman is too old especially at that weight and everyone knows it.

    NO desire to see Roman fight anymore... I enjoy to see these guys retire with health intact

    Don't want to see a death or accident that leaves someone's life destroyed. Pass.

    It's an acceptable option if Gonzalez defeats Cafu, since that sets up a unification bout at 115. But I'd rather see Bam vs Pumita first.

    Bam needs to move up and start fighting guys his own size, he talks a big game but only feast on old has beens.

    Gonzalez needs to take easy fights until he retires he's clearly done as an elite fighter let the legend enjoy his retirement he's earned it

    I don´t want to see Rodriguez given another opportunity to beat up a past it great fighter.
    I want to see Gonzales against one of the Japanese bantamweight champions.
