My random thoughts...

I think Quillin's got issues, doesn't seem to know his identity, thinks he's a slugger, then he's a boxer, and that's not it, I just think he's pretty raw and would have to make gigantic improvements to really become a legit beltholder.

Joel Julio has been found lacking when he's stepped up but there's no reason he can't be a gatekeeper.

The ones that stand out are Ponce and Rock Allen. So Ponce lost, so what, its not like you had to make some massive reappraisal of his abilities after that fight, he is what he is, a rough crude guy who's just not gonna beat some guys but if you are really lacking in some areas, defense, mental toughness, chin, etc. he will find you out and therefore should find his way back into the mix.

Rock Allen I can't say I love as a prospect but that's no reason to disappear.

Hope you're right about Pirog Mick since he's Macklin's mandatory. I've heard that fight will be in Birmingham and I'd pay good money to see Macklin get KTFO again.
