Cuenca (47-0) vs. Yang (19-0) for IBF Jr. Welterweight Belt

Post by klitoris »

Good chance this could be on the July 18th Macau Card.

After Haymon fighters leave 140, there finally could be some unifications happening at 140. Jessie Vargas will be the WBA Champion if Garcia vacates, and Postol would most likely fight the winner of Provo/Mathysse for that WBC belt, unless Garcia actually mans up and fights him at 140. Plus Crawford is fighting Dulorme for the WBO soon.
All of a sudden after Haymon fighters leave (Garcia&Peterson), this division finally becomes interesting.

Omar & Adrien are both at or coming to 140 so Haymon is gonna be there for awhile much to your displeasure obviously lol. And surprisingly or unsurprisingly (I swear I'm not sure which) both Lamont & Danny have sorta kinda backed off their move up to 147 intentions post-fight. I think both kinda realized they might need some more seasoning til they go into the wolfs den at 147. Danny at 147 feels like the nerdy kid who's getting the back of his desk kicked by the bully (Marcos Maidana) knowing starting some sh!t with him probably isn't the best move quite yet & idk who among the elite at 147 I'd favor Lamont over so both guys mighta did a reality check & re-thought that move.

140 is gonna be a fun ass division though whoever is there over the next 12 months or so at least I imagine.

Can't help but love Yang. He fights like a mental patient always entertaining and from what I've read from journalists at his last fight he's very.... Unique out-of the ring. He's be the shot in the arm for Chinese boxing.
