  • Flyweight is a pretty top-heavy division. There’s just maybe a handful of decent, notable contenders so I wouldn’t think Yafai is too far from a title shot, especially on the heels of this one. He wants to be on the Bam – Sunny undercard, maybe a good opponent would be someone like Andres Campos. He has a fight in a few weeks, if he comes through, that would be a good fight imo.

    • I don’t think we learned much about Yafai in this fight. He was miles ahead of Frank in class.
