      Better than Crolla who didn't even try. A complete can.

        Berchelt rematching Vargas next month. No way will he be ready for Loma in July.

          Loma would tee off on Berchelt, at 135. Not enticing.

            Definitely not. IBF just had mandatory title clash with #1 and #2. They might be doing an eliminator later this year. So next year will be the earliest they will order a mandatory title fight. And they might even concede to some unification clashes by then. So there's really a huge timespan for the IBF champ to make unifications this time.

              Isn’t it an eliminator fight , if it does come to fruition
              I thought that’s what it was

                An eliminator comes in when a sanctioning org. orders 2 of their highly ranked fighters to face each other so that the winner goes up the rankings, possibly in line for a title shot. The loser gets eliminated or goes down the rankings. IBF is very strict with these rules; others not as much. That's why when you check their rankings, several times their #1 and #2 (or 3) are vacant

                  Exactly , isn’t Lopez getting bumped up
                  Are they not going to be considered 1-2

                    That's something I can't answer by their book but technically I agree. But the way they run things, I observed, they would order 3 and 4 (Lopez if he cooperates with this) battle for an eliminator. The winner becomes the #1. 2 and 3 becomes vacant afterwards.

                      Imo , it’s a good step up for Lopez
                      If he wins it’ll be good leverage to push Loma into a fight
                      And no , I don’t think Loma would run from it
