    Yes, indeed. Javier Fortuna has some scary abilities. The FW division is stacked with young talent, Fortuna, Russell Jr, Mikey Garcia, and never the never-mentioned Daud Yordan.

    Good ****. I had no clue Proksa-Hope II was this weekend. Looking forward to that.

    Fortuna-Cruz should be interesting, as well as Brook-Jones.

    Barret has "seemed shot" to me :)lol:), so he must just be there for Cameron to whoop on?

    I can't recall seeing Cameron before :huh Is he real good?

    Lot's of shouts for Fortuna in here.

    Real good sign. FNF's last week was prolly their best card of the year so far, especially fan friendly wise. Looks like we're in for another good show. :good

    Hoyf **** this weekend is stacked. :happy

    I was interested in Parker when he was a Junior but he hasn't had any success world level since he started fighting as a senior and didn't have any sucess in the WSB. HE's till only 20 though so hopefully he'll continue to improve.

    To be fair he did run into Zhang Zhilei very early in Baku and Fa seems to just have his number.

    Matthews has shown he has some left in the tank after his upset against Crolla but I reckon Rees will have too much for him in the late stages and force the stoppage. But to answer your question absolutely I think this has the makings for a good fight, there's a reason they've bothered to make the rematch after the disappointment of the first.

    I'd say there are 6-8 SHW's better than Zhang although he could just have his number like you said being a 6'7 southpaw. I thought he would do good in WSB but he went 1-4 against compitition that wasn''t very strong.

    i agree with this 100%

    Rosinsky isn't a world beater but he's top 20 material which a big step up for Pavlik, dude is much better than that Lopez kid who gave him troubles a few fights back. If Pavlik looks good he's back in the mix.....this is a good gauge for him.
