    Valdez wil Ko frampton, LSC, or Jo Jo Diaz. Selby sparred with valdez and robles jr at the rock, he knows better.

    Based on what? Gonzalez has had a greater career and wins than LSC. Gonzalez destroyed Mares who was the then 3 division, WBC Featherweight champ and p4p top 10 in every list.

    LSC had a competitive fight against Mares for the vacant WBA belt after Mares was destroyed by Gonzalez and we all know Mares was never the same again.

    Over who?:blood Jhonny Gonzalez? Who's been dropped and KO'd so many times I've lost count.

    Frampton is the best Featherweight because he just beat the man in the division. Russell is 3rd.

    If LSC and Gonzalez were to fight next in an attempt to propel the winner to another title shot, who would you expect to win?

    If theres going to be a LSC-Frampton rematch, then Russell-Selby should fight and the winners can square off for #1 spot

    Santa Cruz wasn't the man in the division. He beat 0 featherweights, Frampton hasn't either.

    Russel Jr knocks both of them out.

    Of course he's beaten a FW. LSC who, of course had beaten a FW. JG received his belt beating the same man.

    That's what we'll find out if they fight.

    Gonzalez hasn't fought in nearly a year and isn't the same fighter he was 3 years ago, he was aging even then.

    That Gonzalez under Nacho beats both LSC and Frampton, possibly by KO. A prime Gonzalez knocks beats them into submission, he beat better fighters in prime Mares, prime Montiel, and prime Hasegawa.

    Mares isn't a featherweight, he's a bloated Bantamweight.

    But surely you would class all 3 as bloated BW fighters right? So which FW has JG beaten according to you?

    Also if you think JG is so far past his best, upon what basis is GRJ so heavily favoured to ko both Frampton and LSC?

    Frampton should be ranked No.1 but I think Valdez beats the them all.

    I saw an article from last week with Espinoza saying that they're angling for a tournament style set up at FW, with Selby-Russell-LSC-Frampton.

    They're all under the same banner so it shouldn't be too hard for a mix and match.
    Mares-Cuellar is also being rescheduled
