Abner Mares vs. Leo Santa Cruz likely at 126

[Hulk]

I agree that this fight should have been made a while ago. Santa Cruz has lost some steam recently. He doesn't seem so great anymore. Mares is still fine but has kind of gone downhill. Still a good fight though.

It will be a very good fight. Better late than never. Can't be much worse than Floyd vs Manny lol

Mares went from heading for a top five p4p place to being sparked out in two rounds and then doing nothing. Santa Cruz went from being everybody's favourite up and coming fighter to being some guy picking up big cheques for fighting sparring partners on the undercards of big bills. The fight has lost alot of its lustre. It should be a hell of a fight though. The winner gets their career back.

Well said. Both guys have been exciting fighters. I don't think Santa Cruz power is going to follow him up. He seemed a bit perplexed his last fight. Either of these guys against Figueroa at some point might be interesting.
