    Frankie might see the netherworld if he gets hit by Stephens.

    Edgar easily. Bermudez vs Edgar was better imo.

    This is a solid FW matchup. Frankie should win this, but Stephens has momentum.

    Thats a heck of a fight. If Stephens somehow finds a way to win he'll have beaten Barao and Edgar back to back. I mean how is that not worth a title shot? Any other division and he'd be good to go but theres a line up with no champion to be found at 145

    Jeremy hasn't had the same power with the 145 weight cut but he's still knocked down Bermudez twice (including KO), knocked down Cub a couple times, KOd Hony stiff early (where he usually does his best work and is most dangerous), hurt Elkins and Henan badly.

    Somethings gotta give. Frankies one of the OG chins that hasnt been knocked out yet but Jeremy could very well be the guy.

    Definitely. That fight had a lot of potential. Could've been like his fight against Tyson Griffin.

    High risk low reward for Frank. Beating Stephens does little for him in the 145 pound picture but the guy hits a ton. He lost to Aldo which cost him a potential shot at Conor, don't see him getting a third crack at Jose. In his mid 30's I think the time is right to give BW a try.

    Good points. But Dennis could get knocked down by a stiff breeze lol. Bermudez has incredible recovery but he isn't very good at taking a shot.
