I struggled finding a clear next opponent for Morales, could also argue Wonderboy or Neal also

@SpurNani suggested Leon Edwards.

I love that.

Why steps down from burns after finishing burns in one?

Prates?

I mean Burns was on a 3 fight losing streak

@SpurNani suggested Leon Edwards.

I love that.

I like that too but I’m going they book Edwards vs MVP

Neal would just pull out like he always does when he's scheduled against a prospect

 

[jnes]

Morales vs Buckley/Usman winner or Edwards would be ideal.

Santos vs Green is a terrible fight, Sodiq is better than washed Bobby who's way past his prime. Do Santos vs Rebecki/Haqparast/Ziam/Dawson.

Wonderwoman is ready for the old folks home at this point. I don't even know Geoff Neals deal, chronic health and personal issues for years now.

 

[Poirierfan]

Skip the mediocre matchups, burn it all to the ground and start over at this point. I'm tired of the half ass bullshit with the Apex.

 

[Pequeño Corey]

I feel like Morales should get the rocket skates.

Machado wont take it.

Winner of Buck vs. Usman wont take it.

Shavvy injured and heir apparent for next TS.

That leaves Leon, Brady, and Belal.

Brady won’t take it. He just beat the former champ and probably only take a rematch with Belal instead of a TS.

That leaves Leon and possibly Belal….

 

[LincolnHawk1]

Leon, Gary or Buckley are all guys that would be good fights to book morales with. All would be interesting fights and big tests. If he beats any one of those guys his next fight should be for a TS vs a contender. I could see him winning 2 more fights and then fighting for a title. He is getting close. No one seemed to talk much about him as a prospect from what i remember seeing. Guy quietly came up and is undefeated.

 

[AmbassadorFright]

I can't believe Paul Craig terrified Bellato so much he had a panic attack and they had to call off the fight. Must have seen what he did to Ankalaev and Hill and shit himself

May as well do Ankalaev vs. Craig 2 now. Doubt Ank takes it though

 

[Hdfi]

Morales vs Edwards
Burns vs Colby
Luana Santos vs Montserrat

I like that too but I’m going they book Edwards vs MVP

Mvp was at me last time not sure what they'll do with him

 

[DrRodentia]

I like that too but I’m going they book Edwards vs MVP

That would be a hell of a staring contest

 

[BroScienceTalkatWork]

Ain't no contenders trying to give this dude a break

Ian or Buckley fighting down is just asinine.

 

[Prazeres]

I struggled finding a clear next opponent for Morales, could also argue Wonderboy or Neal also

and wonderboy is 1-4 in his last 5.
