Inactivity is truly a problem for the cruisers but Bell fought just once in 2006, and that was 5 days into the year. So if anyone has a problem with ring rust it's Bell. Especially with these latest distractions.

The problem is is that the top fighters in these divisions feel every fight should be televised or that they should be getting bank. But for whatever reason, the market just hasn't opened up for the cruisers which is a shame since all the top guys fight the top guys and the top guys are fairly exciting.

But I don't think Mormeck has been to terribly inactive. He fought twice last year and will probably fight twice this year and honestly I don't see him as an aging fighter. I think he has 3 or 4 more good years to give.
