I think Teo has been coasting for quite some time now and as of late focused more of twatter slap fights on fights not signed and becoming a fashion model of some sort. Hitchins strikes me as a 'serious minded fighter although not always fan appealing. But can see his style imo can give Teo hell. Sad part about the 2nd scenario is that both Keyshawn and Tank are recently joking about retiring aka being disinterested, and in Tanks case off the cheap Paul lotto farce I believe him. Frankly he should be stripped. He's not a serious fighter and ducked his championship obligations with Roach rematch. 3rd tier most appealing, and can see as you said any variation come off minus maybe Keyshawn, if he makes 135 again I'll eat my boot.

Like to see the Matias v Puello rematch myself. But Turki all but 'demanded' Smith get his instant shot at Matias so all bow down, including the wbc. Russell has a pretty tough fight with Hiraoka in November. That should be entertaining. Historically these two are solid competitive divisions, only hope big potential match ups come off.
