    When you say fell through, it probably means Linares does not want it. Truthfully I can not blame him as it will send him into retirement. Whilst this way he makes money and still keeps the possibility alive.
    I don't think Linares is the type of fighter to avoid anyone. Golden Boy trying to lock fighters into multi fight contracts was the issue.
    And shopping Garcia for Cotto which on it's own blows my mind. It's like GB has lost grasp on reality as to which way those two fighters are going. Would respect Linares-Flanagan if it shapes up and like to see it Stateside.

    I think it would be over here.

    Yea I'm not sure Flanagan would be willing to travel and Linares has built a nice following in the UK.

    The Flanagan Linares fight isn't happening. Flanagan is moving up to 140 and will undoubtedly fight some WBO top ten bod for Crawford's vacant title in a Copperbox Arena spectacular.

    Yea heard this from the WBO. Did Flanagan drop his nuts and run towards an easy vacant title? He said the Linares fight was all but done.

    So Flanagan told Garcia no because he was going to fight Linares, but told Linares no too?

    Apparently so. He now #1 at 140 to Crawford's soon to be vacated title. The rest of the WBO's top 5 should include Hooker, Orozco, Catterall and Zepeda.

    Hopefully Zepeda can get a rematch with Flanagan sometime now at 140.
