    Yamanaka vs Moreno will square off again in the 16 of september in Japan ,the vacant ring bantamweight belt will be on the line ,but will the vacant lineal belt be also on the line ? Because you can make a argument that Rau'shee ****** is the second best in the division and not Moreno.

    Could also make a strong argument that McDonnell > ******. Lets be honest though, Yamanaka Vs Moreno I should have established the divisions crown

    I don't think when Yamanaka beat Moreno in their first fight that he became a lineal champion ,because Moreno was coming off a lose versus Payano ,and Payano was still a champion back then ,also you may be right about Mcdonnell

    Yes. Definitely.

    Moreno hasn't truly lost at bantamweight in 10 years. Don't give me the Payano/Raushee spiel. Payano bum rushed for a round or two and was handed a technical decision. Moreno would box his ears off. For that, I don't rate their incestual little PBC rivalry much—trading close, sloppy wins.

    McDonnell's resume is nice. Kameda twice, Stuey Hall and totally outboxed Ceja.
