Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum has no intention of rushing Puerto Rican lightweight star Felix "El Diamante" Verdejo to a world title fight. 

Last Friday in San Juan, Verdejo struggled to win a ten round decision over unknown Nicaraguan Oliver Flores. It wasn't the first time where Verdejo looked less than spectacular. Flores was brought in as a safe opponent, because Verdejo was returning for the first time since a bad motorcycle accident last year. Things certainly weren't safe, with Flores having Verdejo in some trouble in the late stages of the fight.
